Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Short report on Metal 2013, a five-day conference hosted in Edinburgh by Historic Scotland and attended by conservation experts from more than twenty countries. Techniques and developments under discussion included laser scanning, 3D technology, authenticity studies and deterioration studies. A theme of particular interest was climate change, which has accelerated the decay of many traditional materials. Other topics ranged from the conservation of small archaeological artefacts to large-scale projects such as the conservation of architectural and structural metal elements. Historic Scotland staff presented seminars discussing the conservation and maintenance of the Forth Bridge and the development of the Scottish iron foundries, whilst the National Museum of Scotland discussed the care and maintenance of their metal collections. A team from the British Museum talked about their restoration of the Hallaton Roman helmet, now on display in Harborough Museum (Leicestershire). LD | ||
