Proceedings of the 18
th
International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Paris 2013
areas. Indeed, some of the most challenging issues for
geotechnical engineers and researchers.
Generally speaking, and with some exceptions, the papers do
not deal with new design methods or new technologies. They
present case studies in which traditional tools were used to try
and face complexity, the interest of the papers essentially being
in the engineering solutions proposed. As obvious, the ones
adopted for monuments and historic sites are usually less
invasive than the ones conceived for new constructions,
confirming that the design strategies have to be different in the
two cases. This key issue certainly needs to be discussed.
In some cases, the differences in the approaches and in the
solutions depend on different cultural backgrounds and
environments. The discussion should deal with such differences.
With specific reference to monuments and historic sites, it
should be also debated to what extent interventions may alter
integrity and authenticity, posing a question on its final goal: to
preserve heritage or to the aim of touristic fruition?
