“World Journal of Engineering and Technology”: rehabilitation of building facades, in the view of FCGC-UTM professors

A new scientific achievement recorded by our UTM colleagues from the Department of Engineering, Law and Real Estate Valuation within the Faculty of Construction, Geodesy and Cadastre – Assoc. Prof., Dr. Ion ALBU, Univ. Assis., Dr. Doina-Cezara ALBU and Assoc. Prof., Dr. Viorica URSU.

The prestigious specialized scientific journal “World Journal of Engineering and Technology” published the article “Solutions for the Rehabilitation of Historical Building Facades with Local Materials” in vol. 10, 2022 (https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=119020).

The research carried out aimed to identify the possibilities of rehabilitation of building facades in the center of Chisinau, through the use of high-performance materials, use of high-performance technologies in execution, reduction of facade renovation costs, etc. In the process of organizing the rehabilitation works of historical buildings of architectural value, the following aspects are addressed: the value of the rehabilitation works of a historical building is very high, the duration of the rehabilitation is important, the attitude of the society is insufficient, the lack of strategies for the rehabilitation of buildings at the municipality level. In order to achieve this objective, we propose to research the following tasks: definition of the concept of rehabilitation of buildings in the Historic Center of Chisinau; legislative, normative assurance of rehabilitation of historical heritage in the Republic of Moldova; analysis of the situation in Chisinau on the example of historical buildings with limestone finishes and examination by non-destructive methods of facades; solutions for rehabilitation of facades of historical buildings by comparing two types of technologies. In conclusion, emphasis will be placed on the choice of the most efficient method in terms of material, technology and cost.

This article was made within the state project 20.80009.0807.34. Increasing the value of the architectural heritage of the Republic of Moldova.
