This book studies the process of structure relocation as one of the possible means of preservation and conservation of these historically significant structures. Having this type of significance, these structures do reflect the culture, history, and development of its society, a fact which clearly necessitates the invention of various preservation and conservation techniques. The present research focuses on structure relocation from two aspects. The first of these aspects is a theoretical one which itself is divided into two sections: the first of which is the study of a certain structure from an architectural point of view; the other section deals with the environment, surroundings, possible hazards which circumvent that structure and threaten its very existence. Any decision taking concerning this issue largely depends on these two previous aspects: the building itself and its surrounding environment. The second aspect of the research is an applied one where a number of domestic and international cases are analyzed.
