摘要
This article examines a composite construction system concerning a Greek historic dwelling. Various aspects of current proposed interventions are discussed illustrating the subsequent restoration based on the architectural and structural analysis of the dwelling and its construction methods and building materials, as well as on laboratory tests on the properties of its main construction material, the adobe (mud bricks). In addition, the main causes of the current weathering of the dwelling are reviewed, with primary focus on the various mechanisms that affect the load-bearing walls of adobe bricks, a local construction material that endured the climatic condition of the region and kept the building extant for more than 100 years. The restoration-reuse proposal aims to integrate the dwelling in contemporary life through appropriate interventions so that its architectural, typological, functional, and constructional characteristics will be preserved, based on an internationally accepted framework of principles regarding historic architecture.
