Michael Forsyth 
Structures and Construction in Historic Building Conservation [PDF ebook] 

समर्थन
This book is the second in a series of volumes that combine
conservation philosophy in the built environment with knowledge of
traditional materials, and structural and constructional
conservation techniques and technology:

* Understanding Historic Building Conservation

* Structures & Construction in Historic Building
Conservation

* Materials & Skills for Historic Building Conservation

The series aims to introduce each aspect of conservation and to
provide concise, basic and up-to-date knowledge for architects,
surveyors and engineers as well as for commissioning client bodies,
managers and advisors.

In each book, Michael Forsyth draws together chapters by leading
architects, structural engineers and related professionals to
reflect the interdisciplinary nature of conservation work. The
books are structured to be of direct practical application, taking
the reader through the process of historic building conservation
and emphasising throughout the integrative teamwork involved.

This present volume – Structures & Construction in
Historic Building Conservation – traces the history of
structures in various materials and contains guidance on the
survey, assessment and diagnosis of structures and the integration
of building code requirements within the historic fabric.

It discusses conservation engineering philosophy, exposes the
conflict between building codes and conservation legislation, and
offers solutions. Leading-edge, on-site metric survey techniques
are described and a range of structural advice is given, including
methods of repair in relation to philosophical principles. Causes
of induced movement in historic buildings are explained, together
with basic soil mechanics and the assessment and diagnosis of
structural failure. Chapters also cover the conservation of
different types of construction: masonry, iron and steel, and
concrete and reinforced concrete.

Fourteen chapters written by the experts present today’s key
issues in structures and construction for historic building
conservation: Bill Blake, Michael Bussell, David Cook, Dina F.
D’Ayala, Steve Emery, Michael Forsyth, Ian Hume, Peter Norris
