Research activities of a CNR group as a contribution to the “Roman school of restoration”
In this paper, the CNR research group (ITABC - Institute for Technologies Applied to Cultural Heritage)
presents a brief description of the most significant scientific activities developed on the theme of heritage
conservation from the end of the 90s of the last century to the end of 2010s.
The activities have been conducted in harmony with the foundations and principles of the roman School of
Specialization in Monuments Restoration and its Director, Prof. Giovanni Carbonara.
Numerous projects have been developed, with different scales of study – starting from territorial, urban,
architectural up to the scale of detail – by integrating traditional survey’s technologies with innovative ones. The experience, operational and theoretical, gained over the years and briefly presented here has allowed
the elaboration of deep reflections about the meaning of our action in the field of cultural heritage
conservation, often supported by continuous debates in conferences and verified in the
modus operandi
of
who manages the assets as his institutional task.
