HISTORICAL ANALYSIS AND DETERMINATION OF THE WALLS THAT CONSTITUTE THE REAL ESTATE HERITAGE OF THE HISTORIC CENTER OF RIOBAMBA, ECUADOR
Keywords:
heritage property, traditional architecture, construction techniques, earthen materials, wallAbstract
The historic center of Riobamba holds buildings with significant characteristics that are part of the cultural heritage. However, these structures are often partially or completely demolished, erasing evidence of valuable construction materials and techniques. The research concern stems from the importance of recognizing the elements composing the architecture of heritage buildings to generate documentation and facilitate possible recovery efforts, with a focus on promoting maintenance practices compatible with these properties. The study has centered on examining the walls or partitions of these buildings, understanding that they are the elements supporting vernacular materials such as earth, serving as a base for their consolidation, and often being the first to be removed or replaced by contemporary materials.
Keywords: heritage property, traditional architecture, construction techniques, earthen materials, wall.
