Industrial Heritage and Historic Materials in the Context
of the Ecological Transition
Overview
In the context of the energy transition and the growing interest in reusing existing buildings, assessing the properties and performance of materials in the built heritage is essential for proposing renovation solutions tailored to existing structures. While these solutions must comply with current legislation
and aim to reduce CO2 emissions, they must not, however, compromise the heritage value of the buildings. Preserving the built heritage can thus address not only the challenges of historical preservation, landscape quality, and regional identity, but also environmental and energy challenges.
The objective of this conference is twofold.
On the one hand, it aims to take stock of the stakeholders and research efforts involved in the study of heritage materials—particularly industrial ones—in order to advance knowledge and subsequently establish a research consortium. On the other hand, the goal is to combine the expertise of academic and scientific institutions with that of practitioners, and in doing so, to foster interdisciplinarity by integrating methods developed in engineering and the historical sciences.
Many countries are grappling with the redevelopment of urban areas stripped of their heritage value. By drawing on perspectives from other countries, this meeting aims to address highly contemporary concerns that extend beyond France’s borders, at a time when the IPCC has just released the final part of its Sixth Assessment Report on combating global warming.
