Use of 3D Laser Scanning and Additive Technologies for Reconstruction of Damaged and Destroyed Cultural Heritage Objects

Three-dimensional laser scanning is a novel measurement technique that frequently used for the documentation of cultural heritage (CH) objects. In process 3D scanning, one can obtain computing models artworks to be documented. It allows produce detailed digitized archives important CH Moreover, use enables digital reconstruction architectural fragments, sculptures, and other artworks. One more application this relates creation molds replicas replacements outdoor objects in case their preservation requirements do not allow them remain original place due influence environmental factors. most effective ways creating additive technologies. Therefore, combination technologies very promising way CH. This paper describes several studies concerned with combined usage replication sculptures St. Petersburg city. zinc sculpture “Eva at fountain” (XIX century, England), which was destroyed during WWII. Its replica created by means stereolithography. Eventually, project related fragment sufficiently damaged cast-iron XIX century monument. object reconstructed using two technologies: direct metal sintering (DMLS), cladding (LC).
