Publication Restricted Access A brief paleoseismology literature review: Contribution for the local seismic culture study in Portugal2015 - Worth, M.; Vilanova, S.; Correia, MarianaOn the framework of the FCT research project ‘SEISMIC-V: Vernacular Seismic Culture in Portugal’, the team was recommended, by the Evaluation Panel, to perform a review on the field of Paleoseismology and its application to the Portuguese territory. This paper intends to fulfil this request, by presenting an introduction to the history of Paleoseismology, its application and main techniques. The paper also includes a literature review regarding Portuguese geology, and a brief summary on the paleoseismic studies in Portugal, focusing on the following regions: the Gulf of Cadiz, and the Lower Tagus Valley. Finally, it presents an overview with general conclusions.Publication Open Access Versus methodology: Development and application2023-09-01 - Correia, Mariana; Carlos, Gilberto DuarteThe development of the project VerSus / Lessons from Vernacular Heritage to Sustainable Architecture (2012-2014)1, constitutes the conceptual genesis of VerSus+ / Heritage for People (2019-2023). The two projects were developed in partnership by Escola Superior Gallaecia (ESG, now at Universidade Portu- calense - UPT), Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), University of Florence (UNIFI), University of Cagliari (UNICA), and CRAterre-ENSAG, in the framework of the Creative Europe programme. The VerSus project outcomes (available at: esg.pt/VerSus) produced important results in a short-term period, which created expectations regarding its medium and long-range impacts (Carlos et al., 2014) (Correia, Dipasquale, & Mecca, 2014), especially following the European Commission award in 2016, which recognised the VerSus project as a success story “for its impact, contribution to policy-making, innovative results and creative approach - a source of inspiration for others” (Creative Europe Project Results Platform, 2016). In 2017, the project also won the ADDIPA European Award for Architecture Heritage Intervention (3rd Edition, category D).Publication Restricted Access Seismic performance of historical vaulted adobe constructions: a numerical case study from Yazd, Iran2018-01-10 - Sadeghi, Neda H.; Oliveira, Daniel V.; Azizi-Bondarabadi, Hamed; Orduña, Agustí; Correia, MarianaPast earthquakes have demonstrated that historical vaulted adobe buildings are highly vulnerable to seismic actions. Hence, it is crucial for such building typologies to be evaluated in terms of seismic capacity. To this end, this article deals with the seismic performance of historical vaulted adobe houses from the city of Yazd, Iran as one of the seismically active areas of the world and possessing a very rich adobe heritage. Thus, and based on a detailed geometrical survey, a representative sample of adobe houses from Yazd was studied using a simplified in-plane analysis based on three geometric indexes. Concerning the out-of-plane behavior, a deeper assessment was conducted by performing a numerical study, where the main influential parameters on the seismic behavior of vaulted adobe buildings were considered. The numerical analyses were carried out by adopting the limit analysis theory implemented in the Block2D software. The results obtained indicate the safe in-plane behavior of most of the houses and the safe out-of-plane response of the sample under gravitational loads. However, the sample out-of-plane safety under earthquake-induced loads seems to be a matter of concern.Publication Open Access Local Seismic Culture in Portugal: Melides dwellings, a reactive approach case study2015 - Gomes, Filipa; Carlos, Gilberto Duarte; Correia, MarianaVernacular architecture has outstanding examples on the adoption of strategies for the improvement of structural building performance and construction systems, but also on the application of reinforcement measures. Special cases that combine local building culture, with structural poor materials and a history of low-medium regular seismic activity are suitable case studies that can provide interest- ing seismic-resistant strategies within the above-mentioned concept. This paper addresses Melides case study, located in the Southwest Coast of Portugal. The research is developed under the framework of the FCT project ‘SEISMIC-V: Vernacular Seismic Culture in Portugal’, which consists on identifying seismic resistant strategies and elements that can be recognised in Portuguese vernacular heritage. Even, if some of the identified case studies have no longer active building cultures, the overall study of their legacy dem- onstrates a wide range of approaches, rich in solutions of prevention and/or reaction approach.Publication Open Access The contribution of the architect Pascuala Campos to the implementation of a gender perspective in the galician context2020-07-09 - Fernández Cruces, Ainoa; Sousa, Goreti; Correia, Mariana; Guerreiro, PauloThe incorporation of women in society, as active professionals, was probably one of the most important parameters of modernity in the last century. Until the beginning of the twentieth century, women who entered the world of architecture were, generally, assigned to the design of domestic interiors. Thus, they were always in the background, which contributed to the concealment of the female gender perspective in architecture and an incomplete vision of its history. The general purpose of this article is to address the implicit problematic of the female contribution to architecture, through a theoretical reflection that aims at recognizing the relevant impact of Pascuala Campos’s work to the discipline in Galicia, Spain. The Spanish social and architectonic contexts, as well as the biography of Pascuala Campos, are analyzed to better understand her theoretical and architectonic production. The analysis combines data from different sources, mainly documental research, interviews, and architectonic surveys. The basic principles stressed in the theoretical production of Pascuala Campos are thus identified and served as analytic categories for the survey of the Combarro Urban Intervention. These results allowed the identification of concepts and projected guidelines interpreted as gender perspective-oriented.Publication Open Access Vernacular and Earthen Architecture towards local development2019-09 - Shao, Yong; Jakhelln, Gisle; Correia, MarianaICOMOS2019Publication Open Access Vernacular and earthen architecture at the core of local knowledge research: a quality partnership with successful outcomes2021 - Dipasquale, Letizia; Mecca, Saverio; Mileto, Camilla; Vegas, Fernando; Carlos, Gilberto Duarte; Correia, MarianaSince 2006, Escola Superior Gallaecia (Portugal), University of Florence (Italy), and Universitat Politècnica de València (Spain), with partners as CRAterre-ENSAG (France), the University of Cagliari (Italy), and Ecole d’Avignon (France), have been working together, for the enhancement and protection of vernacular heritage and earthen architecture. As key-institutions in the area, they share high standards and common values, in order to address and achieve fundamental research, capacity building, learning experiences, relevant outcomes, contributing for a broader and deeper knowledge on vernacular heritage and earthen architecturePublication Open Access Protecting and valuing cultural heritage2021 - Carlos, Gilberto Duarte; Correia, MarianaSince 2006, Escola Superior Gallaecia (Portugal), University of Florence (Italy), and Universitat Politècnica de València (Spain), with partners as CRAterre-ENSAG (France), the University of Cagliari (Italy), and Ecole d’Avignon (France), have been working together, for the enhancement and protection of vernacular heritage and earthen architecture. As key-institutions in the area, they share high standards and common values, in order to address and achieve fundamental research, capacity building, learning experiences, relevant outcomes, contributing for a broader and deeper knowledge on vernacular heritage and earthen architecture. Several projects were developed among the partners, throughout the years. This was just possible by running together for European Union funded research, and successfully achieving it, by undertaking relevant contribution to knowledge, as well as comprehensive scientific dissemination. This was the case of the following projects: Terra Incognita (2006-2008); Earthen Domes & Habitat – A building tradition between East and West (2008-2010); Terra (in)cognita/Terra Europae (2009-2011: culture-terra-incognita.org); VerSus – From Vernacular Heritage to Sustainable Architecture (2012- 2014: esg.pt/versus); 3DPAST – Living and virtual visiting European World Heritage (2016-2020: esg.pt/3dpast); and VERSUS+ | Heritage for People (2019-2023: esg.pt/versus-plus). Other key-projects have been also developed through National Funding Agencies for Science, Research and Technology as it was the case of: Seismic-V – Local Seismic Culture in Portugal (esg.pt/seismic-v); PRIN – Scientific, experimental and tacit knowledge and conservation actions of Earthen Architectural Heritage in Southern Italy; ResTAPIA – Restoration of rammed earth in Iberia Peninsula (www.restapia. es); SOStierra – Restoration and Rehabilitation of traditional earthen architecture in Iberia Peninsula (sostierra.blogs.upv.es) and RISK-Terra (https://riskterra.blogs.upv.es); among others. The focus of the distinct researches was to address: a state of the art of earthen architecture in Europe (both Terra Incognita projects); to define principles from vernacular heritage that contribute to sustainable architecture (VerSus project & VERSUS+ project); to enhance the quality of vernacular architecture and its World Heritage character (3DPAST); to distinguish seismic retrofitting in vernacular architecture, in order to pro-actively strength dwellings facing earthquakes (Seismic-V).Publication Restricted Access Criteria and methodology for intervention in vernacular architecture and earthen heritage2015-09 - Correia, MarianaThe assessment of criteria and methodology for intervention definition, its significance and the fact that there is a tendency for a non-rigorous application of the terms contributes for its inaccuracy in the field, having therefore a relevant negative impact on the decision-making process, regarding heritage intervention. This paper addresses the concepts associated with criteria and methodology for intervention in vernacular architecture and earthen heritage. A specific literature review is entailed for criteria and methodology for intervention; their frameworks are established; and key-criteria for intervention; and methodology key-components to consider for intervention are addressed. This assessment aims to contribute for a further well-defined and clear ground of work in conservation practice, leading to a more coherent and consistent intervention in heritage.Publication Open Access Communication and dissemination of vernacular heritage2021 - Dipasquale, Letizia; Mecca, Saverio; Vicente, José; Correia, Mariana; Carlos, Gilberto Duarte; Correia, TeresaVernacular architecture is one of the most significant cultural expressions of a socio-economic structure: it represents the way in which local materials and traditional building techniques, learned from endogenous evolutionary processes and from cultural advances, were used to respond to the physical and socio-economic needs of a group, thus generating remarkable architectural models adapted to the historical-cultural experience and the specific environmental restriction of each territory. They are, therefore, unique models strongly linked both to the environmental and to the socio-economic and cultural context, which nevertheless have universal elements in common: they use local resources; they adapt strongly to the morphology and to the bioclimatic characteristics of the place; they are the result of the transmission of experience and knowledge; they are the expression of a living model and the identity of a group; they are extremely vulnerable, as they face sudden changes (natural or cultural); and the deterioration process can be easily triggered.
