Viaduct, a communication tool for scientific analysis in heritage
a communication tool for scientific analysis in heritage
Viaduct has been a research conducted by DIADRASIS with main aim was the creation of comprehension tools for bridging communication gaps of di?erent heritage professionals on scientific analysis for the Built Heritage.
In the handbook the research team categorized and explained 21 most commonly used methods for characterization and dating of the Built Heritage. Viaduct handbook is not meant to compete with the extended scientific literature but to become a friendly for the user tool of research.
