Focusing on the conservation and preservation of Persian architectural heritage, this book covers the topics of the philosophy of conservation, practical experiences and risk management of cultural heritage. This book will be useful not just as a scholarly reference for researchers and students, but also as a practical tool for practicing engineers.
