According to the Cultural Heritage Preservation Act, this is a mandatory step before any restoration design can begin.  ## 1. Required Competencies and Qualifications  According to the Regulations for the Restoration and Adaptive Reuse of Historic Monuments, the principal investigator must meet specific qualifications (e.g., architects, relevant scholars with heritage preservation experience).  ## 2. Key Components of the Investigation Report  An investigation and research report typically includes:  | Component | Description | |-----------|-------------| | Historical Research | Tracing the building's origin, alterations, and historical significance. | | Environmental & Urban Planning Survey | Review the site's urban planning (major and detailed plans), zoning regulations, Floor Area Ratio (FAR), and Building Coverage Ratio (BCR). If located in a Preservation Zone (靽??€), strict adherence to the higher-level preservation plan is required. | | Architectural Surveying | Mandatory on-site surveying. Most heritage buildings (built during the Qing Dynasty, Japanese colonial period, or prior to the Building Act) lack original permit drawings. Modern techniques such as **3D Laser Scanning** and **UAV/Drone Aerial Scanning** are highly recommended to create accurate as-built drawings (plans, elevations, sections). | | On-site Condition Narrative | The narrative of physical conditions and damages must strictly follow a logical "Top-to-Bottom, Large-to-Small" sequence: **Roof -> Structure -> Ceiling -> Walls -> Floors -> Stairs -> Doors & Windows -> Decorative Details**. Findings must be cross-referenced with possible historical construction methods, drawing upon relevant historical data and research reports when necessary. | | Damage Assessment & Structural Data | Due to the irreplaceable nature of heritage, prioritize **Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)**. For RC and reinforced brick structures: use concrete rebound hammer tests and rebar scanning, followed by preliminary seismic evaluation (e.g., PSERCB). For timber structures: apply specialized timber structural calculations and tailored NDT methods. | | Restoration Recommendations | Preliminary guidelines for the subsequent restoration design phase. |  ## 3. Taiwan Building Code / MCP Integration  While primarily governed by the Cultural Heritage Preservation Act, related searches can be done if needed:  ```python # Search for official interpretations regarding heritage building preservation taiwan-building-code_search_building_interpretations(query="??鞈靽?") ```  ---
