STREMAH 2013
[25-27 Jun 2013]


>> Modern society exerts considerable strain on our architectural heritage, partly due to the increase of population and the associated demands on the built environment, and also because of the pernicious effects of pollution.

>> The difficulties and costs of repairs and maintenance contribute to the neglect of important buildings in times of economic stress. It is hence important that our research addresses not only technical questions, but solutions that can be implemented in practice, where social and economic considerations may be paramount.

  • Heritage architecture and historical aspects
  • Surveying and monitoring
  • Performance and maintenance
  • Structural restoration of metallic structures
