Abstract (EN): This paper analyses and compares codes and standards that support interventions on built heritage of three Southern European countries with similar cultural approaches, Italy, Spain and Portugal, and confronts these documents with technical expert opinion. This discussion recognizes the importance of incorporating flexible criteria on code application, but also that such criteria should be sustained by inventorying and cataloguing processes based on multidisciplinary assessment methodologies. When dealing with inhabited built heritage, this assessment methodology should not only be supported by safety and housing conditions criteria embedded in technical codes and standards and local guidelines oriented to the local characteristics of the constructions, but should also include the assessment of the needs and expectations of residents. This work is part of a vast study that includes and sustains the development of a multidisciplinary assessment methodology to be applied on built heritage.
