Project description
Remembering the forgotten forts to find a shared heritage
The South China Sea's historic forts, relics of intricate exchanges with European powers from the 16th to 19th centuries, have been all but neglected by scholars and local authorities. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the SHARED_fort_Heritage project aims to shed light on these overlooked treasures. Recognising their significance as a shared heritage between European and local communities, it will use a combination of traditional and cutting-edge research methods to reveal how local and European fortification practices merged. Archival and morphological analyses will kick-start the study, with TLS methods ensuring precise digitalisation for public access. An innovative interdisciplinary approach, involving HBIM, typomorphological and finite element analyses, material studies and statistics, seeks to reshape societal perceptions of colonial forts.
Objective
Forts of the South China Sea bordering countries built between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries are a notable remain of the long and complex history of encounters and exchanges with European powers. Practically forgotten by scholars and local administrations, it is time to enhance their value with a new discourse as a Shared Heritage between European and local communities.
This project aims to: 1) show how the local practices in the South China Sea bordering countries mingled with the European theory of fortifications; 2) raise the value of the shared fort heritage to create joint forces to preserve it; 3) digitalize forts to make them publicly available as captured memory of current state.
It is planned to begin with traditional methods of study, among which are: a historical analysis using archival documents and morphological analysis. Also, the TLS methods will be used for digitalization as it allows a continuous recording of objects with a high level of accuracy for further analysis and modeling.
Then an entirely new interdisciplinary research methodology will be introduced, namely, the transcultural interpretation of shared heritage that involves HBIM, novel typomorphological analysis, finite element analysis (FEA), material analysis, and statistics. The main foreseen results are the change of societal views on colonial forts. The new shared view on the valuable structures and their digitalization for universal public access during centuries to come.
