Abstract

The conservation requirements for built heritage have been evolving rapidly in the past 20 years as the community has demanded that it be protected and conserved for the future. The engineering skills required to do this work have not been adequately catered for by normal engineering training and experience, and some practitioners have extended their knowledge to answer the need. This paper describes the basis for defining conservation as a separate area of expertise for engineers, the trends overseas and the progress made in Australia.
