72 GROUP 3 NO(r)WAY in TRONDHEIM? Close-up to CH to find a way to preserve against flood risk Dietrich F., Jokin I., Moreno Falcon M., Ogut O. [ABSTRACT] Climate change is one of the global problems that threatens the current conditions, even the future existence of Cultural Heritage (CH) values. Flood, as one the main natural hazards, have been affecting by water cycle changes in the planet towards the climate change. This study tried to investigate the flood hazard and the vulnerability of three significant cultural heritage areas (i.e., Warehouses, Nidaros Cathedral, and DORA facilities) in Trondheim (Norway) according to the framework of integral conservation and the methodological model Art-Risk. The results indicate that the significance and the use of Cultural Heritage are affected by many driving forces that have the potential to reduce -even dissolve- the consequences occur after an emergency. Some suggestions have been made both for decision making and the practical solutions in order to preserve these CH areas against the high flood risk. [INTRODUCTION] Floods are natural hazards that affect the city of Trondheim regularly. According to the last report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2022; IPCC, 2022b) the risk of extreme precipitation and modification in trend of the precipitation is increasing. For this reason, in the future the risk of flooding would increase if the levels of prevention, early warning and response are not improved. When a flood happens, the impact not only depends on the frequency and the severity of the danger, but also depends on the vulnerability of buildings and social resilience (Bonazza et al. 2021). So, to estimate the impact of an emergency it is needed to know danger, vulnerability, and resilience. To evaluate the vulnerability in a cultural urban area, it is necessary to use methods that consider the resistance of the materials and structures, as well as the resistance of the immaterial value of the heritage building. The material and immaterial values of the cultural areas indicate how these areas will be remembered and rethought around the identity of the city (Paoli et al., 2012). As long as it is possible, it is necessary to preserve all these values. This document has five following chapters. In the next chapter, the case studies are briefly introduced by their functions and locations in the city. The used materials and methods of implementation of Art-Index in the case of Trondheim
