(Geotechnical Engineering for the Preservation of Monuments and Historic Sites, 3)
by Renato Lancellotta (Editor), Carlo Viggiani (Editor), Alessandro Flora (Editor), Filomena de Silva (Editor), Lucia Mele (Editor)
This
book contains the invited lectures presented at the 3th International
Symposium on Geotechnical Engineering for the Preservation of Monuments
and Historic Sites (IS NAPOLI 2022, Naples, Italy, 22-24 June 2022). It
collects the opening address, the third Kerisel Lecture, four keynote
lectures and eleven panel lectures, and provides a broad impression of
1. the current state of knowledge and 2. the techniques used worldwide
for the preservation of built heritage. When confronted with structures
relevant to local and global history, there is only one way to select
the best possible conservation solution: the multidisciplinary approach.
Therefore, the invited speakers have been selected with different
pertinent skills, to represent this complexity from the points of view
of geotechnical engineers, structural engineers, architects and
conservation experts.
The book will be useful to
researchers, practitioners, administrations and all those working or
interested in the preservation of built heritage.
