Produktbeschreibung

Heritage buildings are repositories of cultural heritage that strengthen a country's national identity and sovereignty and it is mainly through conservation that we can prolong the life, functions and values of these buildings. Due to the significance of maintenance in buildings conservation, many frameworks for managing the maintenance of normal buildings exist. However, the maintenance strategy for heritage buildings is different from normal buildings because the fabric of heritage building has cultural significance, which should be retained maximally. Besides, maintenance of heritage building involves repairing the building fabric very close to the original using traditional techniques and traditional matching materials and being sensitive to the original structure. Therefore, a specific framework was required for managing the maintenance of heritage buildings. The proposed framework could act as a basis for heritage organizations to prepare guidelines for managing the maintenance and conservation of heritage buildings.
