The Study of Historical Indoor Microclimate (HIM) to Contribute towards Heritage Buildings Preservation

Abstract: Knowledge of building techniques, materials and their decay is nowadays quite vast, as well as on the solutions and methodologies of a restoration project, which depends on the goal of the restoration itself. Even the choices on the new usage of historic buildings are often well considered. In the last few years, we have conducted some monitoring campaigns to obtain data related to four distinct buildings, differing in construction times, typology, location, current and historical uses. What has been discovere… Show more

“…When a thermal retrofit intervention is required because of the original poor indoor comfort conditions in the building, the indoor climate should be documented following standardized procedures [36]. Measurements on site are, in this case, needed to evaluate current conditions, identify the causes of discomfort and define a viable strategy for the retrofit [28,37,38], as well as suitable target environmental conditions [39][40][41].…”

“…in closed protective structures. As opposed to the extensive number of papers discussing optimum microclimatic conditions for museum collections on display [8][9][10][11][12] or those in historic buildings repurposed as museums [13][14][15][16][17], depots [18], and archives and libraries [19], scientific research on monitoring microclimatic regimes inside protective structures and visitor centres on archaeological sites, presented and published in a paper, are quite rare [20][21][22]. What makes archaeological sites specific is primarily the impact of the environmental conditions (ground waters, for example).…”
