An Experimental Study on the Consolidation of Earthen Surfaces Using Nanoparticle-Based Products
This paper presents the results of research conducted as part of a bilateral cooperation project between National Research Council (Italy) and Chinese Academy of Cultural Heritage (China) for the conservation of the earthen walls of Ancient Ulanbay City (Xinjiang, China). In 2007 and 2012, conservation interventions were carried out on the remains of the ancient walls, focusing on areas at risk of collapse. This involved the construction of new a…
Heritage at Risk
Throughout history, people have always faced challenges in the collection and distribution of water in its various forms. The collection and transportation of ice, in particular, posed significant difficulties. Since antiquity ice storage and distribution systems, such as ice-houses, have been employed worldwide. Mediterranean countries have, over time, developed extensive ice storage and distribution networks. Snow was collected at high altitude…
Historical Use of Travertine in the Tuscan Architecture (Italy)
The landscape of an area is not only made up of natural elements but also of man-made elements represented by civil and agricultural artefacts and much more. These elements used to blend aesthetically and harmoniously with the landscape itself thanks to the use of local building materials. Particularly, this contribution examines the use of the travertine in the architecture of the Tuscany region from the Etruscan time to the contemporary age. In…
Conservation of Earthen Bricks in Architecture
Earthen architecture, by its nature, is a fragile because it has a poor resistance toward the action of weathering, which has also increased in recent years through the effects of climate change. The presence of interesting examples of earthen brick buildings, for example, in the Piedmont Region of Italy, is characterised by the absence of rendering, which reveals the need to test treatments for the protection and/or strengthening of the walls of…
The marly limestone, a difficult material to restore
Characterization of the Amphorae, Stone Ballast and Stowage Materials of the Ships From the Archaeological Site of Pisa–san Rossore, Italy
In December 1998, during excavation for the construction of a new building near San Rossore railway station in Pisa, the remains of ancient ships were discovered. These findings have been dated (radiocarbon) to between the end of the 10th century bc and the fifth century ad ( Belluomini et al. 2002 ). Several transport amphorae belonging to the Hellenistic ship, samples of rocks (stone ballast) belonging to ships B, D and the Hellenistic ship, an…
