Summary
A high-precision architectural survey of the main portal jamb of La Lonja de la Seda, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Valencia, reveals insights into its original geometry and conservation challenges. Using advanced non-destructive methods—including 3D laser scanning and electronic total station technology—the study compares traditional measurement tools with modern instruments to assess accuracy and symmetry. Findings highlight the monument's adherence to historical metric systems while addressing conservation needs that balance authenticity with structural integrity. This approach sets a benchmark for documenting and preserving architectural heritage, offering practical solutions for maintaining the site's universal significance.
