Abstract

In order to protect cultural properties and artifacts, risks should be determined and risk management should be made in museum buildings. The study emhpasizes the effects of some risks on museum artifacts. Aim of the study is to determine the environmental risks such as temperature and relative humidity. According to risk analysis, museum experts can manage the climatic comfort conditions at the intended level. Optimum conservation criteria can be implemented for the artifacts and exhibition cases. Ensuring that the museum has temperature and humidity monitoring systems in use in storage and display areas is essential. Also environmental conditions should be monitored. This investigation, coupled with condition checks, would be used to formulate a strategy for the display of the objects in the exhibition that would considerably minimize any risks of further damage by the environmental effects
