“…In this second evaluation process, seven papers were excluded. The SLR made it possible to define indicators to be implemented in the framework of use for measuring the probability that this risk might take place, most of which were linked to policies for managing the cultural heritage [128][129][130][131][132][133][134][135][136][137][138][139][140][141][142]. During this period of growing urbanization, CH can play a key role in achieving the goals for sustainable development, as is widely recognized by such international institutions as the United Nations (UN); the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO); and the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS).…”

The variety of hazards with a potential impact on cultural heritage requires a multidisciplinary approach and a preliminary overview of the existing methods for risk assessment in order to define a comprehensive hazard taxonomy. The starting point of the research thus aims to build a multidisciplinary framework to support the risk assessment process according to the classification of cultural heritage based on the harmonization of European vocabularies’ definitions and protocols. To collect the necessary information, such as hazard classification, indicators, indices and thresholds, a series of methodologies was adopted: analysis of the main international protocols and the EU Research projects related to risk assessment in cultural heritage, expert-based knowledge and a systematic literature review. The research aims to fill a gap in the field of quantitative and indicator-based risk assessment that does not present a unique and all-encompassing framework capable of collecting the main natural and anthropic risks along with the related taxonomy in a single repository. The framework has been set up to be consulted by researchers, professionals and public administrations to support the evaluation process of potential risks on tangible outdoor heritage enabling users to incrementally add exposure and vulnerability data for each specific risk.

“…For the 22 selected papers, an analytic study of the portion relating to the definition of the risk was performed. The SLR made it possible to define indicators to be implemented in the framework of use for measuring the probability that this risk might take place, most of which linked to policies for managing the cultural heritage [135,149].

The variety of risks due to climate change with a potential impact on Cultural Heritage CH requires a multidisciplinary approach and a preliminary overview of the existing methods for risk analysis and assessment in different fields. Thus, the starting point of the research conducted by the Sapienza PNRR working group consists in a systematic literature review of risk assessment approaches, methods and indicators. As a first outcome, the research has designed a multidisciplinary comprehensive framework consisting of the definition of risk categorization, the framework represented by a measurable index and the main target, according to the classification of Cultural Heritage based on the harmonization of European vocabularies definitions and protocols. The risk assessment framework sets the methodological core of a future multi criteria matrix and digital platform for decision focused on the historic built environment and it is functional to the definition of specific operational guidelines connected to each risk for elaborating descriptive/predictive Architectural Heritage’s transformation scenarios to support the development of mitigation and adaptation strategies.

“…Vardopoulos, I., considers sustainable development potentiality, which implies the realization of benefits when adapting, including physical-economic, functional, environmental, political-social, and cultural potential, and adaptive reuse potential assessment, which focuses more on conservation and sustainable development strategies and provides recommendations on whether to engage in adaptive reuse and the priority of adaptive reuse for the target of the assessment [6]. Wijesiri, W.M.M., on the other hand, recently proposed the concept of the Green Adaptive Reuse (GAR) of buildings as an effective strategy to extend the life of facilities and reduce their carbon footprint, contributing to the preservation of an important heritage that determines cultural development [7] by following and extending Craig Langston's evaluation system and employing it to construct a GAR model to determine the potential for reuse of existing resources [8]. Regarding the potentiality for the reuse of industrial building heritage, Craig Langston predicts buildings' service lives based on the potential obsolescence of physical, economic, functional, technical, social, and legal criteria, guides design strategies by assessing the potentiality to enable building retrofitting to maximize adaptive reuse potential, and verifies the size and ranking of the adaptive reuse potential using the adapt STAR model [9].…”

In recent years, it has become critical to promote urban redevelopment and maximize the potentiality of industrial heritage through adaptive reuse. Research on the assessment of adaptive reuse potentiality helps to make scientific decisions in sustainable development and the strategy for utilizing industrial heritage. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the research on the potentiality of buildings or sites. It also constructs a system for the assessment of adaptive reuse potentiality in industrial heritage and describes the characteristics of different dimensions in the indicators of potentiality evaluation. Utilizing the Improved Entropy Technique for Ordering Preferences by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (Improved Entropy TOPSIS), the relative values of the reuse potentiality of each hierarchical evaluation index are calculated, and an adaptive reuse potentiality ranking of various industrial parks is determined. Through the calculation and analysis, it is demonstrated that the application of this quantitative method to the industrial heritage potentiality evaluation system is highly applicable. This paper’s research framework for adaptive reuse potentiality and empirical findings provides targeted recommendations for determining the reuse potentiality and potential hierarchy of industrial heritage, identifying buildings with a high potential for reuse, and developing adaptive reuse strategies to better direct industrial heritage in urban regeneration.
