This practical guide to the assessment and repair of historic
buildings is invaluable for structural engineers, architects,
surveyors and builders working in all aspects of building
conservation. Taking a practical step-by-step approach, the authors
discuss the appraisal of buildings and the differences in
structural behaviour between new and existing structures. Each
stage in the appraisal is explained, using examples from the
authors' own work.
Each major construction material is assessed in detail, with
separate sections on masonry, concrete, timber and the particularly
complex issues of iron and steel framed buildings. Techniques for
testing the ability of a building to continue its existing use or
to be converted to a new use are explained.
