“Wood Science for Conservation of Cultural Heritage (WoodCultHer)
This Action aims to improve the conservation (including study, preventive conservation and restoration) of European Wooden Cultural Heritage Objects (WCHOs), by fostering targeted research and multidisciplinary interaction between researchers in various fields of wood science, conservators of wooden artworks, other scientists from related fields.
Special emphasis will be given to the ageing of wood material (e.g. its factors – physical, mechanical, biological, chemical, environmental – and their interactions), methods for studying long-term deterioration, interactions between WCHOs and the environment (in the atmosphere, in the soil and in the water, thus including archaeological wood), evaluation of long-term compatibility of methods and products for restoration, evaluation of equipment for the diagnosis, restoration, monitoring and conservation of WCHOs, implementation of results into preventive conservation practice and standardization.
