商品簡介
This book discusses contemporary issues related to safeguarding and rescuing the UNESCO World's Natural and Cultural Heritage in 3D documentation and conservation engineering projects. These critical components in cultural heritage often require detailed management techniques and unique solution methods to address failures and remedial measures. Thirteen chapters present advanced techniques and innovative materials in conservation engineering and heritage science. The Safeguarding the World Culture Heritage community continues to find improved testing techniques for determining the engineering properties of heritage materials, including non-destructive testing methods. Also, the design and implementation studies for the cure and preventive conservation of built heritage should be improved. To minimize failure during conservation projects, contemporary issues and data may reveal valuable lessons and information to improve conservation project management and minimize economic losses. This book discusses these aspects using appropriate methods in a simple way. This book discusses many interesting topics in conservation engineering and heritage science like advances in the documentation and characterization of built heritage materials, modern geotechnical and structural assessment methods and tools, geotechnical earthquake engineering, principles and practice in foundation design, slope stability analysis, and modeling in geomechanics, offshore geotechnical engineering, and geotechnical engineering for the preservation of historical buildings and archaeological sites.
