# Heritage Restoration Design
This skill defines the procedures and technical requirements for the restoration design of cultural heritage structures, ensuring authenticity and material conservation according to Taiwan's regulations.
## 1. Principles of Restoration
Restoration design must adhere to the core principles established by the cultural heritage authority:
- Minimal intervention.
- Reversibility of applied treatments.
- Distinguishability of new additions from original historical fabric.
## 2. Design Document Requirements
The restoration design submission must include:
1. **Restoration Drawings**: Detailed plans, elevations, sections, and joinery details.
2. **Technical Specifications**: Describing the traditional methods and materials to be used.
3. **Budget Estimation**: Cost analysis for specialized heritage restoration tasks.
## 3. Structural and Material Considerations
| Element | Preservation Strategy |
|---------|-----------------------|
| Timber Structures | Focus on splicing or partial replacement; anti-termite treatment is required. |
| Masonry | Use compatible mortars; avoid high-strength cement that may trap moisture. |
| Roofing | Retain original tile forms and installation methods; improve waterproofing underneath if reversible. |
## 4. Taiwan Building Code / MCP Integration
For integrating modern utility requirements without violating preservation principles:
