DIN EN 15999-1:2014-06 EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 4 Introduction The main purpose of a showcase is to reduce the risk of physical damage (e.g. theft, vandalism, natural disasters) and to

21、improve the control of environmental parameters (relative humidity, air temperature, dust, pollutants and light) to cultural heritage objects. Better knowledge of the material properties of cultural heritage objects and their interaction with the environment is leading to better preservation. In lig

22、ht of this new knowledge, and in order to prevent risk of decay related to the exhibitions, the showcase is a useful tool to preserve and protect objects. With increasing development of cultural tourism, the number of exhibitions and visitors are likely to continue to grow and place greater burdens

23、on cultural heritage objects. The complexity and the number of variables and their possible incidence require the use of a showcase, adapted to the object and the environment where the showcase is situated. A badly constructed or selected showcase can in some circumstances make conditions worse for

24、the object. The design of showcases need to take account of the shared views of all relevant members of an exhibition team, including for example curators, conservators, scientists, architects, graphic designers, lighting experts and other decision makers. This European Standard will consist of the

34、e term “display case” is sometimes used as a synonym. 3.12 support construction, material or device to hold and support an object without interference or damage and designed to provide stability to an object 4 Principles and components of a showcase 4.1 Functions of the showcase The fundamental func

35、tions of a showcase are: a) to display an object, b) to protect an object, c) to ensure preservation and minimize damage to and deterioration of an object. 4.2 Criteria for design or selection of a showcase The design, the adaptation or the choice of a showcase shall be determined by the nature of t

36、he objects, the characteristics of the exhibition area and by the need of showing an object in safe and secure conditions, while at the same time providing the conditions needed for the preservation of the object. Furthermore, it shall conform to relevant national health and safety regulations. It i

37、s necessary to take into account: a) the characteristics of the object: 1) dimensions (height, width, depth) and weight, 2) physical, chemical, and structural nature, 3) brittleness and sensitivity in relation to its past material history, 4) monetary value and the attractiveness of the object for t

38、hieves; b) management policies for collections and objects: 1) frequency of turnover or rotation of objects between storage and display, 2) duration of exhibition, DIN EN 15999-1:2014-06 EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 7 3) handling of objects, 4) maintenance of the showcase and emergency planning; c) maintenan

39、ce and interior cleaning of the showcase as this shall be safe and easy to carry out without danger to the objects; d) placement of the object in the context of the exhibition; e) the design and display requirements, including aesthetic considerations relevant to the appearance and the viewers perce

40、ptions of the content; f) the showcase and the public in relation to stability, safety, security, sufficient space for circulation, lighting; g) environmental characteristics of the area, where the showcase will be located: 1) room, 2) building, 3) geographical environment (e.g. vibrations from traf

41、fic, seismic activity, flooding); h) the placing or removal of the object observing security and without risk to the object itself, nearby objects or the staff; i) sustainability: 1) the future use of the showcase, including its usability for other displays, whether complete or by using its componen

42、ts, 2) the carbon footprint of its materials and production processes, 3) the suitability of systems and components for maintaining the required environmental criteria (e.g. use of fans or other air conditioning devices or the re-conditioning of buffer materials). 4.3 Components of the showcase 4.3.

43、1 General A showcase normally consists of: a) a display space for the objects, including security devices, b) technical compartments with devices for control of environmental factors (lighting, microclimate, pollutants, etc.), and security devices, c) a base or mounting of the showcase to ensure sta

44、bility, d) lining of the display space and supports for the object. 4.3.2 Display space The display space presenting the object is surrounded by walls, of which at least one (minimum) is transparent. DIN EN 15999-1:2014-06 EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 8 The dimensions of the display space take into account t

45、he size of the object, its preservation needs, supports and mountings, the accessibility and other exhibition elements such as panels and graphics, etc. The contact between the leaf, door or opening panel and the frame maintains an appropriate seal. The opening gives sufficient access to the display

46、 space for safe handling of the objects and maintenance of the display space. The showcase shall remain stable during opening and when it is fully opened. The display space provides room for the installation of sensors/devices to monitor the microclimate or other internal environmental factors and f

47、acilitate the collection of data. Display space needs to be secure. 4.3.3 Technical compartments The technical compartments are defined as that part of the showcase, where the required devices dedicated to control of environmental factors (lighting, microclimate, pollutants, etc.), and security are

48、located. A showcase can consist of one or more technical compartments. The technical compartment (excluding compartment for buffer materials and climate control devices) shall be isolated from the display space and the objects. In order to reduce the risk of transfer of heat, pollutants or vibration

49、s produced by components in the technical compartment (light, climate, etc.), it should be isolated from the display case. If necessary, it has its own ventilation. The technical compartments can be accessed separately for maintenance without allowing access to the display space. 4.3.4 Base and mounting of the showcase The base shall be strong and large enough to ensure the stability and balance of the showcase. If this is not possible, the showcase shall be fixed to the floor or the wall or shall be weighted to increase stability. Mo
