Abstract:
Europe has a significant cultural diversity together with exceptional ancient architectures attracting millions of tourists every year. This incalculable value and global assets have to be preserved for future generations. The effects of floods, extreme wind, storms, rains on these ancient and fragile assets are seriously amplified. Advanced techniques, commonly used for modern structures, cannot be applied to preserve their originality. To preserve ancient valuable structures, dedicated technique, material and methodologies have to be applied. In order to address all the above challenges, the concept underpinning HERACLES project is to propose a holistic, multidisciplinary and multi-sectorial approach with the aim to provide an operative system and eco-solutions to innovate and to promote a strategy and vision of the future of the CH resilience. The HERACLES vision is tested in Greece and in Italy.
