“…They evaluate the dispersion of New Zealand's historic structures as well. In order to create sustainable societies, Salameh et al [ 22 ] looked into and emphasized the intrinsic significance of heritage preservation from an environmental, economic, and social standpoint. From an architectural and urban standpoint, the study assesses a unique instance of historical preservation in the Palestinian city of Nablus.…”

Yan’an is one of the “two holy places” of the Chinese nation and the Chinese revolution and is one of the first cities of historical and cultural significance and an outstanding tourist city in China, as announced by the state council. The evaluation of the effectiveness of environmental conservation is one of the very important elements of the conservation of Yan’an’s architectural heritage. However, the existing evaluation methods cannot provide new solutions for decision-making, the meaning of the comprehensive evaluation function is unclear, the naming clarity is low, there is less quantitative data and more qualitative components, and the results are not easily convincing. This paper proposes a method for evaluating the practical effects of environmental class measures in the conservation of Yan’an’s architectural heritage based on recurrent neural networks. The recurrent neural network makes full use of the memory function in the network, considers the causal relationship of the actual effect, and efficiently evaluates the existing measures. In comparison with factor analysis and hierarchical analysis, this paper has greater applicability in evaluating the practical effects of environmental measures in the conservation of Yan’an’s architectural heritage and is basically consistent with the results of the theoretical analysis. It provides a scientific basis for the construction and implementation of environmental measures for the architectural heritage of Yan’an.

“…Esta idea formativa no solo concilia con el fomento de la formación manifestado por Kóródy y Vukoszávlyev (2014), sino que además parte de una revalorización cultural de determinados lugares internos para aplicar estrategias sostenibles en ellos y respetar las tradiciones culturales de los países árabes. Salameh et al (2021) investigan y destacan el valor de la conservación del patrimonio en la construcción de una sociedad sostenible. Presentan la evalua-ción de un caso único de conservación del patrimonio en la ciudad de Nablus, Palestina, tanto a escala arquitectónica como urbana.…”

La dimensión social de la arquitectura no ha tenido gran desarrollo, a diferencia de la ambiental y económica. Es por ello que este artículo se plantea como objetivos: (1) analizar la evolución de las publicaciones sobre la sostenibilidad social en la arquitectura, a través de una revisión sistemática de la literatura, y (2) resumir los principales aportes de los trabajos más destacados. A partir del análisis bibliométrico, se puede identificar que se trata de una temática de estudio actual: al considerar el total de trabajos existentes sobre la dimensión social de la arquitectura, se encontró que el 75 % han sido publicados en los últimos siete años. Por su parte, al efectuar el análisis de contenido, se detectan tres aristas o temáticas de importancia a la hora de definir la arquitectura sostenible en sus aspectos sociales: la participación ciudadana, la cultura y la accesibilidad. También, se identifican distintos indicadores y herramientas diseñadas desde la administración que pueden contribuir a su medición y monitoreo.

“…This focus persisted to the end of the nineteenth century and beyond. In 1883, Franz von Rziha (1831-1997, an Austrian engineer, published a work entitled "Studien über Steinmetz-Zeichen" (Ržiha 1883), in which he proposed that fourteen basic patterns ("keys", "Schlüsseln") underlay his repertory of 1163 Germanic mason's marks: these, he posited, would have permitted the initiated to identify the lodge from which a given stone cutter had issued.…”

Building Granite Characterisation, Construction Phases, Mason’s Marks and Glyptography of Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe Church, Mouçós e Lamares, Galicia-North Portugal Euroregion

et al. 2023

The Romanesque church of Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe of Mouçós e Lamares is located in Vila Real (North of Portugal). The exterior part of its nave is preserved almost unaltered. Most of the granite ashlars and corbels that make up this church have a mason’s mark in the centre of their faces. The building granites (Sanguinhedo and Vale das Gatas) have been identified and characterised petrographically and petrophysically. The mason’s marks have been as well identified; all the ashlars with visible mason’s marks have been mapped, and a glyptographic study has been carried out. In addition, the surface roughness of ashlars was measured. All these analyses have made it possible to locate the main historical quarry, to calculate the number of stonemasons who worked in the construction of the church, and to determine its construction phases. There are eight main types of mason’s marks on the nave façades. The quarrymen extracted the main building granite (Sanguinhedo granite) from the same quarry, or from nearby quarries. Although the most experienced stonemason has been identified, most stonemasons worked as a team during all construction phases of the church. Techniques such as petrography, ultrasonic P wave velocity, colourimetry, roughness and the determination of hydric properties will guarantee the quality and durability of the heritage stone for restorations. In addition, the glyptographic analysis revealed important historical and ethnographic findings that will be very useful for the appreciation of the monument. Therefore, the knowledge of built heritage, such as mason’s marks contribute to the conservation of historical quarries and traditions, as well as help understand the close cultural association societies have had with heritage stones. In this way, the scientific corpus of historical-cultural heritage can face for the development of tourism in Galicia-North Portugal Euroregion in a long-lasting sustainable way.
