Quantification, the link to relate climate-induced damage to indoor environments in historic buildings
This paper describes and applies a method to quantify and related damage of painted wooden pulpits in 16 churches in Gotland, Sweden, to both the current and the historical indoor climate of the twentieth century. In addition, it demonstrates that the energy used to heat a church in the past can be measured and the study alsopoints towards a relationship between damage and heat output. The results suggest that more damage is present in churches with a higher heat output and there is increased damage in churches using background heating compared to churches that do not. However, the method needs to be improved and a larger population is required to validate these results. ; Climate for Culture ; Cultural heritage and human comfort: the issue of indoor climate in historic buildings in the twentieth cnentury
