Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit Hilfe der Statikanalyse wird der Zustand der Bausubstanz und Konstruktionssysteme eines Bauwerkes untersucht. Wenn Probleme am Bauwerk entstehen, führen Statiker eine solche Analyse durch, um die am besten geeigneten Korrekturmöglichkeiten zu bestimmen. Auch Architekten müssen über Grundkenntnisse in der Baustatik verfügen, um Gebäude entwerfen zu können, die ihre Funktion optimal erfüllen und um mit anderen Kollegen des Bauteams effektiv zusammenzuarbeiten. Außerdem müssen Architekten in der Lage sein, selbst eine Statikanalyse durchzuführen, wenn sie ein vorhandenes Gebäude umbauen wollen. Dieses Buch ist ein wichtiges Nachschlagewerk für jeden, der historische Bauten umbauen und verändern will. Es ist darüber hinaus ein nützlicher Leitfaden zu technischen Daten und Berechnungsmethoden, die den Architekten und Statikern damals zur Verfügung standen, als das Baumaterial oder Konstruktionssystem eingesetzt wurde. Mit einer Fülle praktischer Informationen bietet es die Grundlage für moderne Zertifizierung durch den Experten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Specifications for Building Conservation, the National Trust draws on a range of case studies and specifications to provide a much needed guide to specification writing for building conservation. Although traditional building accounts for approximately a quarter of all buildings in the UK, the old skills and understanding required for their care and maintenance have been increasingly eroded over the last century. As the largest heritage charity in Europe, the National Trust has a first class reputation for high standards of conservation and care, and in this three volume set, the Trust brings together a remarkable pool of expertise to guide conservation professionals and students through the process of successful specification writing. This first book focusses on the materials used for the external fabric, detailing successful approaches employed by the National Trust at some of their most culturally significant sites. A range of studies have been carefully selected for their interest, diversity and practicality; showcasing projects from stonework repairs on the magnificent Grade I listed Hardwick Hall to the re-thatching of the traditional cottages of the Holnicote Estate. Complete with a practical Conservation Management Plan checklist, this book will enable practitioners to develop their skills, allowing them to make informed decisions when working on a range of project types. This is the first practical guide to specification writing for building conservation and the advice provided by the National Trust experts will be of interest to any practitioners and students involved in building conservation, both in the UK and beyond. Profits generated from the sale of this publication will go to the National Trust Building Apprenticeship Scheme. This provides placements for traditional skills at National Trust properties.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are other books about renovating old houses, this is the first that prioritizes the identification and preservation of the historic, character-defining features of a house as a starting point in the process. That is the purpose of this book: to describe and illustrate a best-practices approach for updating historic homes for modern life in ways that do not attempt to turn an old house into a new one. The book also suggests many ways to save money in the process, without settling for cheap or inappropriate solutions. Scott Hanson is a historic-building preservation professional and has 40 years' experience rehabilitating historic houses. He has illustrated this authoritative book with hundreds of step-by-step photos, illustrations, charts, and decision-making guides. Interspersed throughout are photo essays of 13 restored historic houses representing a range of periods and architectural styles: Italianate, Victorian, Queen Anne, Federal, Colonial, Colonial Revival, Greek Revival, Ranch, Adobe, Craftsman, Shingle, and Rustic. With interior and exterior photography by David Clough, these multi-page features show what can be achieved when a historic home is renovated with a desire to preserve or restore as much historic character as possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some 40 percent of North Americans live in homes built prior to 1940, and when it comes time to remodel or restore our older homes, homeowners and contractors can find themselves lost in a morass of wildly divergent information and opinion. With Green Restorations , author Aaron Lubeck brings his expertise as a restoration contractor and preservation consultant to this first-of-its-kind guide, leading the reader through the steps for restoring historic building using sustainable practices and green building techniques. In a readily accessible room-by-room and system-by-system format, Green Restorations covers rehabilitation and remodelling questions applicable to old homes, focusing on the core techniques and debates often seen in practice. Here you'll find the answers to restoration questions, such as: Is sealing my old crawl space a good idea? Should I replace or rehabilitate my windows? Are there historic aspects of my home I need to preserve and what can I change? What are the cultural, environmental and financial implications of my proposed changes? Do residential historic tax credits apply to my home and how can I access them? Written in such a way as to be accessible for homeowners but technical enough for contractors, this book will appeal to anyone trying to green an older home while preserving its historic and cultural significance.
