Materials, Technologies and Practice in Historic Heritage Structures
ISBN: 9789400791039 / Angielski / Miękka / 371 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The planners cannot go out today from a tabula rasa situation anymore. Environmental and sustainability issues have already formed the public idea that a 'greenbelt' of our cities is necessary, a kind of fortification leading to intensive development in towns inside a clearly delimited area within the surrounding nature. Since building on the periphery is limited, and the existing built substance has a certain cultural, architectural or at least environmental value, upgrading of existing buildings gains more and more ground from the design of new buildings. Masonry has been already... The planners cannot go out today from a tabula rasa situation anymore. Environmental and sustainability issues have already formed the public idea ... |

Conservation of Modern Architecture
ISBN: 9781138405318 / Angielski / Twarda / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The importance of protecting significant buildings from decay and destruction would seem to be undeniable.

These deserve to receive wider formal recognition but in many cases continue to be mistreated or even demolished.This book examines many of the philosophical and practical issues surrounding the conservation of modern buildings and also the problems faced by...

Repointing Brick and Stone Walls: Guidelines for Best Practice
ISBN: 9781848024953 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The appearance of brick and stone masonry owes as much to the character of the mortar joints as to the stone and bricks themselves. Unsuitable repointing can affect not only the look but also the durability of masonry, and is amongst the most frequent causes of damage to the character and fabric of historic buildings. The comprehensive repointing of a building is rarely necessary. Generally only those parts that are most exposed to the weather or are affected by specific problems such as leaking rainwater pipes or gutters are likely to be in need of attention. Sound historic mortar...

Vacant Historic Buildings: Guidelines on Managing Risks
ISBN: 9781848025141 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When historic buildings are left vacant they are at a greatly increased risk of damage and decay as well as being a potential blight on their locality. The best way to protect a building is to keep it occupied, even if the use is on a temporary or partial basis. It is inevitable that some historic buildings will struggle to find any use, especially in areas where the property market is weak and the opportunities for sale or re-use are limited. However, such buildings may become centrepieces of future regeneration and safeguarding will allow them to fulfil their social, cultural and economic...
