New Concept of Historical Indoor Microclimate - Learning From the Past for a More Sustainable Future

Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Historical architecture is a long time studied subject in Europe. We know building techniques, materials and problems linked to the decay about most of it, and even solution for the restoration project, depending on the goal of the restoration itself and the intended usage. A less studied aspect of Historical architecture is their historic microclimates: researches currently carried on in the Department of Architecture of Università di Bologna aim specifically to study this field of architecture, considering it highly relevant to accomplish the goals of any restoration intervention. Thanks to monitoring campaigns, we have data related to three distinct buildings, different in their construction times, typology, location and techniques used. These data show that historical microclimates guaranteed by these architectures are surprisingly overlapping to the parameters considered, nowadays, appropriate to conserve them and the historical patrimony they contain.
