Resumo: | This study focuses on a WWII Supermarine Spitfire aircraft section wing conservation, salvaged from the seabed in 1988 and stored in a private garden. The object was in poor condition so decisions on the conservation, preservation or removal of parts of the original elements were needed. Firstly, the wing fragment was studied to determine its heritage interest and to assess its historical, industrial, technical and scientific values. This object will become a memorial to the pilot who died during the mission, in his hometown. The conservation project aims to find the best solution to both conservation priorities and exhibition needs. Based on cleaning tests on corroded, painted aluminium alloys carried out within the PROCRAFT Project, a treatment was determined. This case serves as an example of how the results of a European project can be implemented in a conservation-restoration process and how industrial conservation theory can be applied to archaeological artefacts. |

Conservation of a WWII Supermarine Spitfire section wingConservação de uma secção de asa de um avião Supermarine Spitfire da II Guerra MundialInterventionsThis study focuses on a WWII Supermarine Spitfire aircraft section wing conservation, salvaged from the seabed in 1988 and stored in a private garden. The object was in poor condition so decisions on the conservation, preservation or removal of parts of the original elements were needed. Firstly, the wing fragment was studied to determine its heritage interest and to assess its historical, industrial, technical and scientific values. This object will become a memorial to the pilot who died during the mission, in his hometown. The conservation project aims to find the best solution to both conservation priorities and exhibition needs. Based on cleaning tests on corroded, painted aluminium alloys carried out within the PROCRAFT Project, a treatment was determined. This case serves as an example of how the results of a European project can be implemented in a conservation-restoration process and how industrial conservation theory can be applied to archaeological artefacts.Este estudo considera a conservação de uma secção de asa de um caça Supermarine Spitfire da Segunda Guerra Mundial, resgatada do fundo do mar em 1988 e armazenada num jardim privado. O objeto encontrava-se em mau estado de conservação, sendo necessário decidir sobre a preservação de partes dos elementos originais. A asa foi estudada para determinar o interesse patrimonial e avaliar os seus valores histórico, industrial, técnico e científico. O objeto tornar-se-á um memorial ao piloto que morreu durante a missão na sua cidade natal. O projeto de conservação visa encontrar a melhor solução para as prioridades de conservação e as necessidades de exposição. Com base em testes de limpeza de ligas de alumínio pintadas e corroídas, realizados no âmbito do projeto PROCRAFT, determinou-se um tratamento. Este caso ilustra a aplicação de um projeto europeu num processo de conservação e como a teoria da conservação industrial pode ser aplicada a artefactos arqueológicos.ARP - Associação Profissional de Conservadores-Restauradores de Portugal2023-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.14568/cp28355eng2182-99421646-043XPaillaux, EveBampitzaris, SotirisEchinard, JaneBaron, GillesEscobar-Claros, CesarBrunet, MagaliRobbiola, LucGuilminot, Elodieinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-10-03T02:30:47Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/28355Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:32:01.217722Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
