Sustaining traditional residential architecture is important in terms of cultural continuity. The study questions the appropriateness of the new functions of heritage buildings through the evaluation of socio-cultural, economic and physical aspects of the adaptive reuse of traditional urban houses in the Walled City of Nicosia. The selected buildings were used as houses before and new functions have been assigned to them. This article aims to measure the success of the adaptive reuse projects by identifying the benefits gained from the adaptive reuse. As the data collection method of study, questionnaires were conducted with architects, who are registered and active members of the chamber in the northern sector of Cyprus. The findings show that traditional urban houses have been preserved physically but the buildings lack a living function due to the neglect of socio-cultural and economic aspects in the decision-making process.","PeriodicalId":44303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Architectural Conservation","volume":"22 1","pages":"149 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13556207.2016.1248095","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59823564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fresh from giving us the benefits of his experience in his previous contribution to the field, The Craft of Stonemasonry (2012), Daniels now embarks on a comprehensive practical elucidation of architectural stone conservation and repair. The writing style is uniquely the author’s own and strikes a personal and familiar note from the start with cleverly titled and lighthearted touches to the text. If you thought books about stone conservation were dry, scientific and objective, think again! Here is a refreshingly subjective view of the subject designed for, in the author’s words, the ‘Artisan’; an artisan with an enquiring mind and natural curiosity and consequently one who enjoys and appreciates their vocation. The layout of the book and sequence of chapters leads the reader through topics of Stone Decay and Stone Selection to two very useful chapters about ‘The Workplace’ and ‘Tool Skills’, where ample illustrations show every type of working environment and the wide range of tools required for themany tasks which stone conservation and repair demands. Photographs exemplifying the author’s advice of ‘what not to do’ both shock and educate the reader. While on the subject of photographs, I praise the extensive selection the author hasmade and the informative captions but inmore than one example I foundmyself wanting to knowmore about the location of a reference. The next chapter, ‘Lime and Mortars’, gives us further essential background information before we get into the nitty gritty of the actual conservation and repair work. A wonderful illustration in the author’s own artistic hand of a lime kiln is a joy to behold, and ‘a More Fun Method’ of slaking lime for those who want to live a little dangerously is strictly for those with experience. Health and safety is dealt with throughout this book in a practical and sensible way. Anecdotes about how things can so easily go wrong are salutary lessons. Eminently practical chapters on ‘Repointing; Dutchman Repairs’ (good to see so much space devoted to a skill which is so often overlooked); ‘Mortar Repairs’ (the author doesn’t just make the mortar for his repair work, hemakes his own fired clay armatures as well and tells us how tomake our own!); ‘Consolidation’ (a healthy dose of scepticism about the effectiveness of consolidants); ‘Cleaning’ (with a useful at-a-glance list of ‘What is Used andWhat it Does’); and finally, ‘Casting’ (a good overview and fascinating two page spread on Scagliola illustrating how to make it). This is a practical book, written by an artisan who clearly loves his profession. Opinions are generously shared and even if we might find it hard to agree with all of them none can deny they are food for thought!","PeriodicalId":44303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Architectural Conservation","volume":"22 1","pages":"167 - 167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13556207.2016.1208481","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59823278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(i.e. 697 after Hegira [AH]) and it is one of the ancient Islamic monuments belonging to the Marine Mamluk era (ad 1250–1382; i.e. 648–784AH) It includes the mausoleum of its founder Al-Sheikh Zein El-Deen Josef. The inner walls of the mausoleum are covered with marble cladding of three different colors. Recently the mosque was severely damaged by a fire. The aim of this study is to investigate fire effect on marbles through the application of in situ investigation and laboratory techniques. The morphological analysis proved that the change of color, micro-cracking, breaking, scaling and discoloration are the common deterioration patterns from the effects of fire. Color change is the most visible pattern at both brown and black marbles. Moreover, the white marble is the most affected variety by micro-cracking and breaking patterns, while the black marble is the exclusive affected variety by scaling. Petrographic analysis using polarizing optical microscope (OM) and mineralogical analysis by both X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were carried out. Change of texture and inner structure, color change, the formation of new mineral phases and disappearance of minerals were distinguished associated to the fire impact. Analysis of coating material of discoloration was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy technique (FTIR), which revealed a correspondence in the absorption bands of the original material spectrum with respect to the modern shellac. It is also recognized that the most probable temperature range to which the mausoleum marbles were subjected during the fire was 550°C–800°C.","PeriodicalId":44303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Architectural Conservation","volume":"22 1","pages":"126 - 148"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13556207.2016.1248084","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59823440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Borbone technicians tried to counterpose seismic measures aimed at reducing the vulnerability of the constructions under threat from earthquakes. Neither the seventeenth century nor the first years of the eighteenth century emphasized a significant seismic engineering development. In general, the reconstruction activity did not highlight, in the analysed historical chronicles, any technical device concerned with buildings’ seismic retrofittings. However, some constructions, executed or strengthened after the 1732 quake that hit Naples, presented timber elements embedded in the masonry, with the main intention of bonding the orthogonal panels of the building and counteracting the wall collapsing. The earthquakes sequence that struck the Calabria region in 1783 marked a resolved trend inversion characterized by interventions, as well as strengthening interventions, aimed at improving building responses during an earthquake. The Borbone government, showing a deep and advanced knowledge about the seismic engineering principles, imposed a code for earthquake-resistant constructions that regulated, beside new buildings execution, repair interventions for damaged buildings.","PeriodicalId":44303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Architectural Conservation","volume":"22 1","pages":"64 - 76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13556207.2016.1210927","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59823299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the contrary, negative effects include physical damage where stunts may go wrong or equipment is misused, acceleration of normal wear and tear, loss of normal use, changes to presentation, and potentially damaging associations with a production that is morally or thematically inappropriate to the site. Examples of these effects are given, and measures that exploit the benefits and mitigate the negative effects are highlighted through the practices of some heritage organisations.

Hurol","doi":"10.1080/13556207.2016.1208473","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13556207.2016.1208473","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT Carob warehouses in the rural areas of Cyprus constitute one of the rare examples of traditional industrial building types that are evidence of a vanishing tradition of agricultural, social and economic life. These warehouses were built in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and used as part of the carob production and export industry that showed a drastic decline after 1960 and virtually vanished in the following decade, resulting in the dereliction of the warehouses. Today, very few of them are in good condition, some have disappeared, and many are left with major structural damage or have been partially destroyed. In order to contribute to their protection and to add to the existing literature on industrial buildings in rural areas, the present work aims to examine the architectural and structural characteristics of rural carob warehouses in Cyprus. The assessments are based on a model formed through observations noted during the field survey in the northern section of the island where 15 carob warehouses are located mainly on the coast. The model of architectural and structural features of the warehouses includes the recording of alterations, material deterioration and structural damage. The study concludes with an overall approach for the restoration and consolidation of the warehouses employing techniques that follow the principles of international charters. Suggestions are given for promoting the potential of these heritage assets and enabling assessment of their general reuse potentials. It is found that among the 15 existing warehouses three of them have already been restored and the other 12 require restoration.","PeriodicalId":44303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Architectural Conservation","volume":"22 1","pages":"18 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13556207.2016.1208473","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59823474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
