Improved damage assessments of parchments
Record Control Number: 61379 Quality Validation Date: 2003-05-15 Update Date: 2003-05-20 Project Acronym: IDAP Title: Improved damage assessments of parchments Subject Index : Environmental Protection; Social Aspects Objective: Parchments in the form of manuscripts, scrolls, charters, book covers which belong to the most valuable objects of European cultural heritage. The actual collections are large, present extensive conservation problems and contain important volumes with near-to-fatal damage. At the present no simple assessment system is available to give reliable in formation on the real state of deterioration of parchments. Through the correlation between the observed state of preservation and the measured condition, using complementary non-destructive and micro-analytical assessment, the cooperation between conservators-restorers and researchers will establish an improved visual parchment assessment system including an early warning system to detect latent fatal damages in the parchment structure and a parchment damage atlas which describes all significant damage characteristics. Start Date: 2002-03-01 End Date: 2005-02-28 Duration: 36 months Project Status: Execution Project Cost: 1.81 million euro Project Funding: 1.60 million euro Programme Type: 5th FWP (Fifth Framework Programme) Programme Acronym : EESD Subprogramme Area: Protection, conservation and enhancement of European cultural heritage - Improved damage assessment on cultural heritage Project Reference: EVK4-CT-2001-00061 Contract Type: CSC (Cost-sharing contracts) Prime Contractor Organisation: ROYAL DANISH ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS Organisation Type: Education Department: SCHOOL OF CONSERVATION Address: 34 Esplanaden 34 Postcode: 1263 City: KOEBENHAVN K/COPENHAEGEN Region: København og Frederiksberg Kommuner Country: DENMARK Contact Person: Name: LARSEN, René (Dr) Other Contractors Organisation Name: FOUNDATION OF RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY - HELLAS Organisation Type: Research Contact Person: PAYATAKES, Alkiviades (Professor) Department: INSTITUTE OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING AND HIGH TEMPERATURE CHEMICAL PROCESSES Address: Stadiou 18, Platani P.O.
