19、 16096:2012 (E) 4 Introduction Knowledge and understanding of the material evidence of built cultural heritage and the information on its current state is important as it helps to specify measures necessary to preserve structures in an appropriate condition and ensure that the maintenance required t
20、o keep them at this level is well defined. Built cultural heritage in this document refers to standing structures which have an architectural, cultural or historical value. A condition survey is a management tool. This condition survey of structures and materials is the first step in a process to de
21、velop plans and measures needed to keep built cultural heritage in a stable well-maintained condition. It acts as the basis for recommending preventive conservation, maintenance and immediate repairs and for a more detailed planning and consideration for further measures or studies. When damage is d
22、etected and the causes are not evident, it will be necessary to carry out a more detailed investigation or diagnosis outside the remit of this standard in order to execute further remedial measures of an appropriate quality. Preventive conservation, regular condition surveys and maintenance is the b
23、est way to conserve and maintain the significance of built cultural heritage, while ensuring that its authenticity and integrity are retained. A combination of scientific, architectural, historic, structural and cultural knowledge and conservation experience of built cultural heritage is advisable i
24、n order to execute this survey. This European Standard is for use by the surveyor as requested by the end-user. The results are for use by the owner and/or the manager of the built cultural heritage. This does not preclude that the owner/manager may use this standard as a guide for assessing the con
25、dition. This European Standard has been prepared taking into account European and International conventions, charters, declarations and guidelines. References are given in the Bibliography. For the purposes of data management it is advisable to have a digital system. For decorative elements integrat
26、ed into the building (e.g. stained glass, mural paintings etc.) the condition survey may be extended by a condition report in accordance with EN 16095. Other standards for assessing the condition of built structures should be considered. DIN EN 16096:2012-10 EN 16096:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European
27、 Standard provides guidelines for a condition survey of built cultural heritage. It states how the condition of the built cultural heritage should be assessed, documented, recorded and reported on. It encompasses evaluation of the condition of a building or other structure mainly by visual observati
28、on, together when necessary with simple measurements. The relevant data and documentation on the built cultural heritage should be collected and included in the report. This European Standard can be applied to all built cultural heritage such as buildings, ruins, bridges and other standing structure
29、s. Built cultural heritage comprises both protected and non-protected significant buildings and structures. Archaeological sites and cultural landscapes are not dealt with in this standard. This European Standard does not specify how to carry out a diagnosis (3.7) of the built cultural heritage. For
30、 listed/protected immovable heritage, specific national rules for expert documentation and works may apply. This European Standard may be applied in order to: a) identify maintenance measures and the need for further investigation and diagnostics of damage; b) define procurement needs and the requir
31、ement for detailed specification; c) provide a unified method to obtain comparative data, when carrying out a condition survey for a group of buildings or a region. 2 Normative references Not applicable. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions a

41、y 4.1 Objectives The purpose of the survey is to assess, document and record the condition of built cultural heritage. The condition survey encompasses planning (4.2), property and cultural heritage information (4.3), recording the condition (4.4), making risk assessment and recommendations (4.5), d
42、ocumenting the summary (4.6) and condition report (4.7). 4.2 Planning 4.2.1 Preparation Before the survey of the built cultural heritage, the scope, the need for resources, the equipment and the format for recording (see Annex A) to be used, shall be clearly defined. The person(s) or institution who
43、 has commissioned the condition survey shall be identified in the report. Information on the property and the built cultural heritage shall be obtained during the planning stage. This shall form the basis for the condition survey. For large or complex sites consisting of multiple structures, the sur
44、veyor shall clearly define the structure(s) which are included in the survey. A system for identifying and locating the individual objects shall be included. When surveying a ruin, the purpose is to maintain it in its ruined state. This should be confirmed by the involved parties. The involved parti
45、es, natural persons or legal entities, shall be informed of the condition survey and the necessary permits for access to the entire built cultural heritage shall be obtained. Measures to guarantee the safety of the surveyor during inspection shall be specified. 4.2.2 Qualifications of survey personn
46、el Condition surveys on built cultural heritage should be performed by professionals. The surveyor(s) should have knowledge of traditional materials, construction techniques and decay processes. For larger and more complex surveys extended across various fields, interdisciplinary cooperation is nece
47、ssary for a condition survey. DIN EN 16096:2012-10 EN 16096:2012 (E) 8 NOTE In certain countries, specific accreditation schemes might exist which define the professional qualifications for the surveyor(s). 4.3 Property and cultural heritage information 4.3.1 General Information on the built cultura
48、l heritage, including legal information, shall be obtained. For regular inspections, it is appropriate to update the data from the previous inspection. NOTE Information can be obtained, for example, from the national cadastre/land registers, cultural heritage databases, cultural heritage administration, building authorities, the owner(s), and from the records of earlier work provided by relevant professionals. 4.3.2 Object information Object informatio
