3. Abstract Educational Linkage Approach In Cultural Heritage Prof. Antonia Moropoulou – National Technical University of Athens This presentation introduces the theme of consolidation, one of the major types of conservation interventions applied on the built heritage. The definition of consolidation and the aim of its application are explained. Selection criteria and the basic types of consolidation materials are also pointed out. Moreover, the advantages of advanced particle modified consolidants are presented, along with the assessment methodology of consolidation materials. For the better understanding of the theoretical background of consolidation, the case study of Medieval City of Rhodes is presented. Examples of pilot application of consolidation materials are displayed, whereas representative results of analytical and NDT techniques applied on site for the assessment of consolidants are demonstrated.
