The general objective of the discipline
The project aims at the assimilation of research, regulatory and intervention methods in the case of buildings with heritage value, by correctly identifying, protecting and enhancing the cultural values ​​of the studied building in relation to the heritage context and the current principles of the protection of immovable cultural heritage.
Specific objectives
Upon successful completion of the activities within the discipline, students will be able to: - systematically go through and summarize the available historical documentation; - to create an interpreted photo documentary; - to make/update the geometric measured drawings of the entire structure of the studied building; - to carry out a survey of materials and damage analysis with the indication of the causes and remedial solutions; - to identify and evaluate culturally, historically and architecturally valuable elements; - map the construction and transformation phases (based on historical data and mural stratigraphy); - to create an architectural bibliographic documentation (references for the architectural program) and a specialized documentation (references regarding conservation-restoration interventions); - to establish an intervention concept: restrictions and permissiveness regarding conservation, restoration, etc. as well as the limits within which elements can be modified or removed/added; - to compile the historical-architectural study to substantiate the intervention aiming at the correct identification, protection and enhancement of the cultural values ​​of the studied building in relation to the patrimonial context and the current principles of the protection of immovable cultural heritage.; - to define an intervention scenario that takes into account the identification and involvement of the heritage community, the sustainability of the intervention, accessibility for physical and intellectual limitations or disabilities; - to develop an intervention project at the technical project level P.T. based on the urban regulations in force, the conclusions from the Historical Study and the intervention regulations established in the previous phases; - to write an intervention report to argue the decisions and technical solutions within the project; - to use at an advanced level means and tools for communicating ideas and projects orally, in writing, graphically and/or volumetrically; - to demonstrate the ability to develop architectural projects that guarantee sustainable development from a social, cultural, economic and environmental point of view;

Content:

The project is designed as a simulation of research and design works (conservation-restoration and insertion by expanding/replacing the existing built structures) and includes their essential phases for the intervention on a building classified as a historical monument.
Each student will work on a self chosen property that is validated by the supervising team. It is recommended to choose a building with an area of ​​approx. 150-300 sq.m. with historical and architectural value. The student, depending on the solution, can propose changes to the chosen construction without altering the identified values ​​or/and the addition of new parts (their surface will not exceed the existing one) which will contribute to increasing the qualities of the building, but also of the adjacent area. Each student must demonstrate the deepening of specialized notions (architecture, conservation and restoration) specific to the third year of studies in an institution with an academic profile.
The project will include several phases, each marked as a distinct discipline in the curriculum. Of these, phase 3 focuses on:
- Establishing how to intervene on various elements: conservation, restoration, reproduction, as well as the limits in which elements can be modified or removed / added;
- Establishing architectural and technical solutions for preservation and enhancement, in relation to the theme's requirements.

Lecture PRINCIPLES AND DOCTRINE OF INTERVENTION APPLICABLE TO BUILDINGS WITH HERITAGE VALUE with case studies and emphasis on contemporary conservation-restoration interventions.
Lecture HOW DO I PRESENT A RESTORATION PROJECT? mastering the means and tools for communicating ideas and projects orally, in writing, graphically, volumetrically.
Study visit – at least one construction site in progress and two other examples of completed interventions nearby (e.g. Sibiu county, Mureș) will be visited.

Phase 3 INTERVENTION CONSERVATION RESTORATION 8 weeks
a) bibliographic documentation: - architectural documentation – references for the architectural program; - specialized documentation - references regarding conservation-restoration interventions;
b) summary of the substantiation study: - tables annotated restrictions and permissiveness of intervention; - final drafting of the historical-architectural study;
c) designing and drafting the intervention project: - intervention memorandum with the presentation of the options established in relation to the restoration doctrine (conservation-restoration solution) based on the conclusions from the previous stages (area and object study) and the intervention regulations established in stage I and II. - illustration in an annotated drawing of the intervention on the existing built fund on a convenient scale, with details on the materiality and particular methods of intervention; - characteristic perspectives (photomontage) at the level of the eye, from which the way of enhancing the existing built fund and, as the case may be, the integration capacity of the proposed new insertion can result.
