The canal embankments, originally constructed from earth and gravel, were later replaced by masonry walls made with brick and ceppo, a natural conglomerate. This work-in-progress over centuries, which can be seen through stratigraphic surveys, made it impossible for conservators to choose one original element from many. The premise of the conservation plan was therefore based on the notion that any intervention would add to the already existing and complex stratigraphy. Informational assessment consisted of document research to better understand building techniques and materials used through time, a geometric survey, and detailed mapping of the canals' state of decay and different types of materials. In situ analysis of the canals consisted of an examination of embankment masonry, mortar characterisation, and georadar investigation. Conserva...

The contributions illustrate the critical issues related to architectural listings, with a brief history of national approaches, a linkography and a short bibliography. The book also provides a short critical lexicography, with 12 papers written by scholars and experts including topics on identities, heritages, conservation, memories and the economy. By examining the methods used to designate building as heritage sites across the continents, this book provides a comprehensive overview of current protection policies of twentieth-century architecture as well as the role of architectural history.

The role of architectural history and the conservation rules within the recognition process for t... more The role of architectural history and the conservation rules within the recognition process for twentieth-century architecture are of high relevance for the contemporary critical debate.
The historical survey and preservation strategies of modern architecture are being gradually associated with sustainability, while twentieth-century buildings are becoming an integral part of multiple strategies for the development of urban landscapes. Today, new critical perspectives and protection policies contribute to the deployment of projects related to the study, classification, listing, conservation and promotion of modern architecture.
These issues are confronted in Time Frames: Conservation Policies for Twentieth-Century Architectural Heritage (Routledge, 2017) by exploring the policies used to designate buildings as heritage sites worldwide. The editors of the book focus on the so-called ‘time rule’ which elapses between a building’s construction and its protection, if it exists. What emerges is a variable definition of what is “contemporary”, ie architecture which has not yet become “historic”.

They form a very interesting architectonic, technical and cultural linear system: not only the traces, but also the road features (walls, bridges, tunnels, drain wells), the connected buildings (churches, chapels, fortifications, customhouses, mills, forges, furnaces, mines) rose out of ancient religious, military, commercial or industrial functions with a relationship between villages, towns, landscapes.
Speaking of historical routes we often refer mainly to lines of communication along which migrations, trade and pilgrimage activities took place. Famous are the so-called Silk Road or the pilgrims' itineraries towards Rome (Via Francigena) or towards Santiago de Compostela (Camino de Santigo). These itineraries have long been considered for their historical, cultural, commercial and religious, value. UNESCO has rightly taken them into consideration and aims to protect them.
However, my communication addresses the problem of the conservation of road structures understood as engineering works and the buildings strictly connected to them either as a support to the road system or as they are attracted by the passage of travelers
In short: I will deal here with the "historical substance" which was the physical support of the goods, ideas, religions and military or scientific expeditions that made use of it.
