Özet:

 This article delves into the distinctive viewpoints held by civil engineers and architects during the process of restoring historic buildings. The restoration of heritage structures involves complex decisions and multidisciplinary collaboration, where professionals from varying backgrounds contribute their expertise. Notably, architects and civil engineers approach restoration with different lenses, stemming from their unique educational backgrounds, professional experiences, role expectations and many various other factors. These divergent perspectives may significantly impact the overall restoration process, influencing design choices, material selection, structural interventions, and project outcomes. To shed light on this phenomenon, this study employs a comprehensive methodology. The research incorporates a meticulous literature review to elucidate existing knowledge on the subject. Subsequently, a structured questionnaire is administered to a diverse pool of practicing civil engineers and architects, aiming to capture their distinct viewpoints and perceptions regarding historic building restoration. The survey is carefully designed to explore a spectrum of factors, including project goals, design approach, project involvement, decision-making processes, and challenges. the collected data, comparing and contrasting the responses of civil engineers and architects were also presented in this research. The analysis uncovers nuanced variations in how these professionals prioritize different aspects of restoration, from historical authenticity and aesthetic considerations to structural stability and feasibility. The implications of these divergent perspectives are critically evaluated, emphasizing how they influence project outcomes and the holistic restoration process. Furthermore, the article addresses the potential benefits of bridging these perspectives, fostering enhanced interdisciplinary communication and collaboration. This article provides a comprehensive understanding of the distinct viewpoints that civil engineers and architects bring to historic building restoration. By recognizing these disparities and their implications, the restoration field can work toward more effective integration of expertise, contributing to more informed decision-making and successful restoration projects that balance both functional and aesthetic considerations.
