Abstract

Cultural assets in a society represent their wealth in a way whose quantification would be impossible to do, since the mere fact of having them generates an impact and pride in the society that owns it, as well as a sense of belonging of the people towards their cities and countries. These assets, especially the architectural ones, are in constant change, that is; that as time passes, the individuals or groups of a certain society illustrate their integral thinking (economic, social, cultural, etc.) through architecture. It is important to understand that cultural assets must be seen as active in a society, it is part of its cultural capital, having clarity on this aspect, it gives a cultural value, independent of an economic value, and that it can generate through different services of a direct or indirect economic flow. It is no secret to anyone that the architectural heritage is in constant deterioration, and not because of administrative problems or similar issues; up to the useful life of materials and construction techniques; that with the passage of time, use, or simply by external agents if they are damaged, compromising the loss of their patrimonial values.
