Resumo: In 2018, Ingenium began a large-scale collections move, consolidating artefacts from four rental warehouses into a new purpose built storage facility. Collection hazards were assessed, prioritised and treated according to Ingenium’s comprehensive Collection Risk Management Program (CRMP), placing health and safety at the forefront of collections care. This paper will present hazard assessment and mitigation in one warehouse, the Building 2421 Reserve Collection, showing the challenges overcome to move a large industrial collection on a tight schedule and with limited staffing and resources. A selection of case studies will provide examples of hazard mitigation in artefacts containing asbestos, radioactivity, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and mercury. The case studies demonstrate how simple solutions and triage treatments were implemented by conservators and specialised contractors in order to mitigate collection hazards during the move project. The Building 2421 Reserve Collection move was completed in December 2021 and the full collections move was completed in August 2022.

Os perigos das coleções foram avaliados, priorizados e tratados de acordo com o abrangente Programa de Gestão de Riscos de Coleção (CRMP) da Ingenium, colocando a saúde e a segurança na vanguarda dos cuidados com as coleções. Este artigo apresentará a avaliação e mitigação dos riscos num armazém - Building 2421 Reserve Collection - mostrando os desafios superados para mover uma grande coleção industrial com tempo, pessoal e recursos limitados. Uma seleção de casos de estudo fornecerá exemplos de atenuação dos perigos em artefactos contendo amianto, radioatividade, bifenilos policlorados (PCBs) e mercúrio. Os casos de estudo demonstram como soluções simples e tratamentos de triagem foram implementados por conservadores e empreiteiros especializados, de modo a atenuar os riscos de recolha durante o projeto de mudança. A mudança para o Building 2421 Reserve Collection foi concluída em Dezembro de 2021 e a mudança completa das coleções foi concluída em Agosto de 2022.ARP - Associação Profissional de Conservadores-Restauradores de Portugal2023-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.14568/cp29217eng2182-99421646-043XMarshall, SkyeRiddle, Jacquelineinfo: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:RCAAP2023-10-03T02:30:45Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/29217Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:02:56.708337Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
