《國際建筑遺產(chǎn)雜志》提供了對現(xiàn)有資源和現(xiàn)代技術(shù)的多學(xué)科科學(xué)概述，這些資源和技術(shù)可用于研究和修復(fù)歷史建筑和其他結(jié)構(gòu)。該期刊將包括有關(guān)歷史、方法、材料、調(diào)查、檢查、無損檢測、分析、診斷、補(bǔ)救措施和強(qiáng)化技術(shù)的信息。保護(hù)建筑遺產(chǎn)被認(rèn)為是現(xiàn)代社會生活中的一個基本問題。除了它們的歷史利益外，文化遺產(chǎn)建筑也很有價值，因?yàn)樗鼈兺ㄟ^在旅游和休閑是第三個千年的主要產(chǎn)業(yè)的背景下提供關(guān)鍵景點(diǎn)，對經(jīng)濟(jì)作出了巨大貢獻(xiàn)。因此，保護(hù)歷史建筑的需要不僅是一種文化要求，也是一種經(jīng)濟(jì)和發(fā)展的需要。對歷史建筑和其他結(jié)構(gòu)的研究必須從使用現(xiàn)代技術(shù)和科學(xué)的方法著手。最終目標(biāo)必須是選擇和充分管理可能的技術(shù)手段，以達(dá)到對結(jié)構(gòu)形態(tài)和結(jié)構(gòu)行為的必要理解，并描述其維修需求。現(xiàn)代對干預(yù)的要求包括可逆性、不顯眼性、最小維修量、尊重原始建筑，以及明顯的功能和結(jié)構(gòu)要求。符合這些原則的修復(fù)操作需要一種科學(xué)、多學(xué)科的方法，該方法理解歷史知識、現(xiàn)代無損檢測技術(shù)以及先進(jìn)的實(shí)驗(yàn)和計算機(jī)分析方法。因此，《國際建筑遺產(chǎn)雜志》涵蓋了與現(xiàn)有建筑的研究和修復(fù)有關(guān)的主要方面，包括：建筑史與建筑技術(shù)問題研究和干預(yù)的一般標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和方法歷史和傳統(tǒng)建筑技術(shù)測量技術(shù)無損檢測、檢驗(yàn)和監(jiān)測實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果和實(shí)驗(yàn)室測試分析和數(shù)值方法用于修復(fù)和修復(fù)的創(chuàng)新和傳統(tǒng)材料修復(fù)和修復(fù)的創(chuàng)新策略和技術(shù)一般補(bǔ)救措施結(jié)構(gòu)的修復(fù)和加固抗震性能與加固詳細(xì)和最先進(jìn)的案例研究，包括真正新穎的發(fā)展主要目的是對現(xiàn)有資源進(jìn)行綜述，以便對古代結(jié)構(gòu)的狀態(tài)進(jìn)行嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)和科學(xué)的研究，并在該領(lǐng)域呈現(xiàn)最新的研究成果。該雜志將發(fā)表評論論文、研究論文和詳細(xì)的案例研究。我們將高度贊賞跨學(xué)科的貢獻(xiàn)。所有提交的手稿都要經(jīng)過編輯的初步評估，如果認(rèn)為適合進(jìn)一步考慮，還需要由獨(dú)立的匿名專家評審員進(jìn)行同行評審。所有同行評審都是單盲的。提交的文件通過網(wǎng)上學(xué)術(shù)一手稿。

International Journal of Architectural Heritage provides a multidisciplinary scientific overview of existing resources and modern technologies useful for the study and repair of historical buildings and other structures. The journal will include information on history, methodology, materials, survey, inspection, non-destructive testing, analysis, diagnosis, remedial measures, and strengthening techniques.Preservation of the architectural heritage is considered a fundamental issue in the life of modern societies. In addition to their historical interest, cultural heritage buildings are valuable because they contribute significantly to the economy by providing key attractions in a context where tourism and leisure are major industries in the 3rd millennium. The need of preserving historical constructions is thus not only a cultural requirement, but also an economical and developmental demand.The study of historical buildings and other structures must be undertaken from an approach based on the use of modern technologies and science. The final aim must be to select and adequately manage the possible technical means needed to attain the required understanding of the morphology and the structural behavior of the construction and to characterize its repair needs. Modern requirements for an intervention include reversibility, unobtrusiveness, minimum repair, and respect of the original construction, as well as the obvious functional and structural requirements. Restoration operations complying with these principles require a scientific, multidisciplinary approach that comprehends historical understanding, modern non-destructive inspection techniques, and advanced experimental and computer methods of analysis.Therefore, International Journal of Architectural Heritage covers the main aspects related to the study and repair of existing buildings, including:Issues on the history of construction and architectural technologyGeneral criteria and methodology for study and interventionHistorical and traditional building techniquesSurvey techniquesNon-destructive testing, inspection, and monitoringExperimental results and laboratory testingAnalytical and numerical approachesInnovative and traditional materials for repair and restorationInnovative strategies and techniques for repair and restorationGeneral remedial measuresRepair and strengthening of structuresSeismic behavior and retrofittingDetailed and state-of-the-art case studies, including truly novel developmentsThe main objective is to provide an overview of existing resources useful for the rigorous and scientifically based study of the state of ancient structures and to present state-of-the-art novel research in the field. The journal will publish review papers, research papers, and detailed case studies. Interdisciplinary contributions will be highly appreciated. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial evaluation by the Editors and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert reviewers. All peer review is single blind. Submissions are made online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
