abstracts | The aim of the paper is to propose new quantitative criteria for selecting the optimal
method of securing and repairing a historical object, which take into account Structural, Conservation
and Architectural aspects (the S–C–A method). Construction works on cultural heritage sites tend
to be challenging and require an interdisciplinary approach. Therefore, they are strictly related
to the philosophy of sustainable development which seeks adequate proportions between factors
indicated on the natural and social environment. Optimization of several systems stabilizing retaining
structure that are a historic object was considered in the paper. Appropriate formulas for scores
meeting additional conservation and aesthetic requirements were proposed. The method is used
in the stabilization of the brick retaining wall, a part of the Wisłoujście Fortress located in Gdańsk,
Poland. In order to compute the displacement of the wall and its stability, numerical analysis was
performed by the two-dimensional explicit Finite Difference Method (using the FLAC2D software).
The algorithm proposed could be beneficial to the protection of cultural heritage since it could also be
applied to other structures, such as roof trusses, masonry walls, pillars, etc. |
