BS EN 15999-1:2014EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 4 Introduction The main purpose of

19、 a showcase is to reduce the risk of physical damage (e.g. theft, vandalism, natural disasters) and to 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 cultura

20、l heritage objects and their interaction with the environment is leading to better preservation. In light 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 to

21、urism, the number of exhibitions and visitors are likely to continue to grow and place greater burdens 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

22、situated. A badly constructed or selected showcase can in some circumstances make conditions worse for 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, gra

23、phic designers, lighting experts and other decision makers. This European Standard will consist of the following parts: Conservation of cultural heritage Guidelines for design of showcases for exhibition and preservation of objects Part 1: General instructions Conservation of cultural heritage Guide

33、 4 Principles and components of a showcase 4.1 Functions of the showcase The fundamental functions 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

34、The design, the adaptation or the choice of a showcase shall be determined by the nature of the 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 o

35、bject. Furthermore, it shall conform to relevant national health and safety regulations. It is 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 relati

36、on to its past material history, 4) monetary value and the attractiveness of the object for thieves; b) management policies for collections and objects: 1) frequency of turnover or rotation of objects between storage and display, 2) duration of exhibition, BS EN 15999-1:2014EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 7 3)

37、handling of objects, 4) maintenance of the showcase and emergency planning; c) maintenance 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 requireme

38、nts, including aesthetic considerations relevant to the appearance and the viewers perceptions 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

39、be located: 1) room, 2) building, 3) geographical environment (e.g. vibrations from traffic, 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 showcas

40、e, including its usability for other displays, whether complete or by using its components, 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

41、devices or the re-conditioning of buffer materials). 4.3 Components of the showcase 4.3.1 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, poll

42、utants, etc.), and security devices, c) a base or mounting of the showcase to ensure stability, 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. BS EN 15999-

43、1:2014EN 15999-1:2014 (E) 8 The dimensions of the display space take into account the 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 fram

44、e maintains an appropriate seal. The opening gives sufficient access to the display 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 sensor

45、s/devices to monitor the microclimate or other internal environmental factors and facilitate 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

46、environmental factors (lighting, microclimate, pollutants, etc.), and security are 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 th

47、e objects. In order to reduce the risk of transfer of heat, pollutants or vibrations 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 separatel

48、y 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

49、 increase stability. Mounting of the showcase takes into account the weight of the showcase, its contents and the quality of the substrate (e.g. wall or floor). The base, plinth or any other form of mounting shall limit vibrations transmitted from floors or walls into the display space. 4.3.5 Lining of the display space and supports for the object All linings and supports in the display space should be chemically stable, if relevant pre-tested for non-emission of harmful vapours and be easy to maintain and/or replace. The supports shall maintain the physica
