In the Italian lagoons and in the Slovene highlands, the fishing and agro-pastoral activities have produced over millennia, unique types of wooden housing with also wooden infrastructures such as piers, moorings, piles and fences. The existence of these structures and of the related cultural background, however, is subject to constant maintenance. Maintenance is no longer economic sustainable in humid and coastal environments where wood degradation is massive and fast. As a consequence, in the last century impacting protection techniques and use of unsuitable materials had been adopted. The project aims to test some innovative techniques and products, developed by project partners to increase the durability of traditional wood species. Treated wood will be used in traditional buildings in socio-ecologically sensitive environments. This use will be economically and environmentally sustainable for the whole Alpine-Maritime Adriatic area. The environmental compatibility of these techniques will be evaluated in light of the most recent scientific knowledge within protocols among partners and will be transferable to the entire programme area.
