International Journal of Architectural Heritage provides a multidisciplinary scientific overview of existing resources and modern technologies useful for the study and repair of historical buildings and other structures. The journal will include information on history, methodology, materials, survey, inspection, non-destructive testing, analysis, diagnosis, remedial measures, and strengthening techniques.Preservation of the architectural heritage is considered a fundamental issue in the life of modern societies. In addition to their historical interest, cultural heritage buildings are valuable because they contribute significantly to the economy by providing key attractions in a context where tourism and leisure are major industries in the 3rd millennium. The need of preserving historical constructions is thus not only a cultural requirement, but also an economical and developmental demand.The study of historical buildings and other structures must be undertaken from an approach based on the use of modern technologies and science. The final aim must be to select and adequately manage the possible technical means needed to attain the required understanding of the morphology and the structural behavior of the construction and to characterize its repair needs. Modern requirements for an intervention include reversibility, unobtrusiveness, minimum repair, and respect of the original construction, as well as the obvious functional and structural requirements. Restoration operations complying with these principles require a scientific, multidisciplinary approach that comprehends historical understanding, modern non-destructive inspection techniques, and advanced experimental and computer methods of analysis.Therefore, International Journal of Architectural Heritage covers the main aspects related to the study and repair of existing buildings, including:Issues on the history of construction and architectural technologyGeneral criteria and methodology for study and interventionHistorical and traditional building techniquesSurvey techniquesNon-destructive testing, inspection, and monitoringExperimental results and laboratory testingAnalytical and numerical approachesInnovative and traditional materials for repair and restorationInnovative strategies and techniques for repair and restorationGeneral remedial measuresRepair and strengthening of structuresSeismic behavior and retrofittingDetailed and state-of-the-art case studies, including truly novel developmentsThe main objective is to provide an overview of existing resources useful for the rigorous and scientifically based study of the state of ancient structures and to present state-of-the-art novel research in the field. The journal will publish review papers, research papers, and detailed case studies. Interdisciplinary contributions will be highly appreciated. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial evaluation by the Editors and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert reviewers. All peer review is single blind. Submissions are made online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.

《國際建筑遺產雜志》提供了對現有資源和現代技術的多學科科學概述，這些資源和技術可用于研究和修復歷史建筑和其他結構。該期刊將包括有關歷史、方法、材料、調查、檢查、無損檢測、分析、診斷、補救措施和強化技術的信息。保護建筑遺產被認為是現代社會生活中的一個基本問題。除了它們的歷史利益外，文化遺產建筑也很有價值，因為它們通過在旅游和休閑是第三個千年的主要產業的背景下提供關鍵景點，對經濟作出了巨大貢獻。因此，保護歷史建筑的需要不僅是一種文化要求，也是一種經濟和發展的需要。對歷史建筑和其他結構的研究必須從使用現代技術和科學的方法著手。最終目標必須是選擇和充分管理可能的技術手段，以達到對結構形態和結構行為的必要理解，并描述其維修需求。現代對干預的要求包括可逆性、不顯眼性、最小維修量、尊重原始建筑，以及明顯的功能和結構要求。符合這些原則的修復操作需要一種科學、多學科的方法，該方法理解歷史知識、現代無損檢測技術以及先進的實驗和計算機分析方法。因此，《國際建筑遺產雜志》涵蓋了與現有建筑的研究和修復有關的主要方面，包括：建筑史與建筑技術問題研究和干預的一般標準和方法歷史和傳統建筑技術測量技術無損檢測、檢驗和監測實驗結果和實驗室測試分析和數值方法用于修復和修復的創新和傳統材料修復和修復的創新策略和技術一般補救措施結構的修復和加固抗震性能與加固詳細和最先進的案例研究，包括真正新穎的發展主要目的是對現有資源進行綜述，以便對古代結構的狀態進行嚴謹和科學的研究，并在該領域呈現最新的研究成果。該雜志將發表評論論文、研究論文和詳細的案例研究。我們將高度贊賞跨學科的貢獻。所有提交的手稿都要經過編輯的初步評估，如果認為適合進一步考慮，還需要由獨立的匿名專家評審員進行同行評審。所有同行評審都是單盲的。提交的文件通過網上學術一手稿。
