Tarbiat Modares University Naqshejahan- Basic studies and New Technologies of Architecture and Planning 2322-4991 14 1 2024 03 20 Reading the intangible aspects of industrial architecture heritage by focusing on Tehran's Silo Reading the intangible aspects of industrial architecture heritage by focusing on Tehran's Silo 109 136 991 FA Keihan Karimi Department of Architecture, Pardis Branch, Islamic Azad University, Pardis, Iran Fahimeh Motazedian Department of Architecture, Pardis Branch, Islamic Azad Univerity, Pardis, Iran Sajad Moazen Department of Conservation, University of Science & Technology, Tehran, Iran Maryam Cheshmeh Ghasabani Department of Architecture, Pardis Branch, Islamic Azad University, Pardis, Iran Journal Article Aims: The industrial architecture heritage of Iran is exposed to natural deterioration or human destruction. In protecting the industrial architecture heritage, mostly physical aspects that have a tangible perception are often analyzed. While, other influential aspects with a non-physical nature are effective in the protection process. The present study is aimed to investigate the intangible aspects of industrial architecture heritage as a neglected values and variables in the conservation process by focusing on Tehran’s Silo. Methods: This paper is a historical-adaptive research and has a qualitative nature. First among the typologies of heritage values, Pereira Roders’ typology is proposed using the logical reasoning technique; Then by re-reading the historical documents of Tehran’s Silo, the values of this kind of heritage are analyzed and after matching with the selected typology components, they are interpreted and analyzed. Findings: Knowledge in the field of industrial architecture heritage values plays a fundamental role in emphasizing on the approach of protecting the base value. The achievement of research is to explain and categorize the values of Tehran’s Silo based on Roders’ typology in eight primary values social, economic, political, historic, aesthetical, scientific, age, and ecological and thirty secondary values. Conclusion: The results of the research indicate that a major part of the industrial architecture heritage values has intangible aspects. The exact analysis of the aspects of the industrial architecture heritage values, makes it possible to evaluate and prioritize the values of this heritage and take informed decisions about selecting the optimal type of conservation.
