Practical Building Conservation: Stone de Historic England

Practical Building Conservation: Stone: Practical Building Conservation

Autor Historic England
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 mar 2012

Remarcăm în Practical Building Conservation: Conservation Basics o structură progresivă riguroasă, care ghidează cititorul de la fundamentele teoretice ale conservării în secolul XXI până la execuția tehnică și gestionarea contractelor. Editura Routledge propune prin acest volum o resursă esențială pentru înțelegerea modului în care clădirile istorice din Anglia sunt evaluate și protejate. Cartea nu se limitează la filozofia restaurării, ci pătrunde adânc în aspectele practice ale ingineriei civile, analizând factorii de deteriorare și metodele de diagnoză pentru materiale specifice.

Merită menționat că volumul este organizat metodologic pentru a servi drept manual de referință în teren. Secțiunile dedicate materialelor precum pământul bătut sau cărămida tradițională oferă detalii tehnice despre simptomele degradării și soluțiile de reparație, totul fiind susținut de studii de caz concrete. Cititorul care a aplicat deja ideile din Structural Aspects of Building Conservation de Poul Beckmann va găsi aici elementele complementare necesare pentru o abordare holistică: de la evaluarea umidității și analiza materialelor, până la managementul programelor de întreținere și specificațiile de lucru.

Față de alte lucrări semnate de Historic England, precum Historic England: London's East End, care adoptă o perspectivă mai degrabă narativă și ilustrativă asupra istoriei urbane, acest volum din seria Practical Building Conservation este un instrument pur tehnic. Reținem accentul pus pe „biologia” clădirii, unde diagnoza corectă precede orice intervenție, asigurând astfel integritatea structurală și istorică a obiectivului.

Despre autor

Historic England este organismul public oficial care se ocupă de protejarea mediului istoric al Angliei. Expertiza instituției se reflectă în publicațiile sale tehnice, care stabilesc standardele naționale pentru conservare. Dacă în lucrări precum Historic England: London's East End autorul colectiv pune accent pe valoarea culturală și socială a siturilor, în seria Practical Building Conservation se concentrează pe rigoarea științifică a materialelor și metodelor de construcție, oferind profesioniștilor datele necesare pentru protejarea patrimoniului construit.

Descriere scurtă

Stone considers the wide variety of historical uses, from simple masonry walling through to elaborate carving and decoration. The book considers why stone decays or fails and how to assess and understand the causes, before concentrating on the practical methods of treatment, repair and maintenance.

Notă biografică

The contents reflect the work of the Building Conservation and Research Team, their colleagues at Historic England, and their consultants and researchers, who together have many decades of accumulated experience in dealing with deteriorating building materials and systems of all types. This multi-disciplinary team of architects, surveyors, conservators and scientists are responsible for standard setting and research across a wide range of Historic England activities. The team specialises in dealing with the practical, technical and scientific aspects of building materials decay and their treatment. The aim has been to provide practical advice by advocating a common approach of firstly understanding the material or building element and why it is deteriorating, and then dealing with the causes. The books concentrate on those aspects which are significant in conservation terms, and reflect the requests for information received by Historic England.

Recenzii

[The Practical Building Conservation volumes] offer considerable information and advice on many aspects of conservation. Great emphasis is placed in all the volumes on making the reader familiar with the material in question, giving them as much information and direction as possible to allow them to understand what they are dealing with. Gives a comprehensive - hands on - approach; solutions are found, methods described and practical tips freely given... should be kept on the bookshelf within reach of most practising professionals in the field. - Jane Jones-Warner RIBA SCA AABC IHBC, Member RIBA Conservation Group
'This book belongs in the tool-kit of every specialist and general building contractor, of every trainer and educator and certainly of architects and surveyors. Amply populated by purposeful photographs and with illustrated diagnostic tables for easy reference, this book represents a coherent and eminently useable summary declaration not only of current thinking, but of longer-term intent.' Cornerstone
'My overriding impression of this series is that it is comprehensive, well set out and easy to follow, and it should be of interest both to all involved in the repair and maintenance of historic buildings, and to the casual reader. Each volume stands alone or as part of a set. This represents a substantial body of work in the field of building conservation that is unlikely to be repeated in the near future. The tables and technical drawings are clear, and some of the photographs included are remarkable. The amount of information within each volume is staggering and must represent the nearest thing to a one-stop-shop for historic building practitioners.' Context
'This work sits well on the shoulders of its predecessor, and like the first edition, should become an essential part of the conservation professional's toolkit and a natural starting point for any research into stone and its conservation.' Architectural Technology Magazine (AT)
'The primary editors for each volume acknowledge the contributions of numerous authors and the series' strength is in the breadth of the conservation community engaged in the project - a twenty-first-century galaxy of highly regarded practitioners and conservators brought together in a single technical series, the books are accessibly organized and elegantly designed. It is easy to navigate around them and, importantly, between them. Links to other volumes in the series are colour-coded in the text so that cross-referral to Stone, for example, from Mortars, which is frequently relevant, provides helpful signposting to the relevant detailed guidance in the companion handbook. The illustrations are enormously valuable and the Timber volume, in particular, includes axonometric drawings of timber structures that beautifully display complex construction. These volumes are in all ways an essential, one-stop resource for conservation practitioners: well-organized, expertly informed, compellingly illustrated, signposting other key resources and (let us not take this for granted) written in lucid English.' The Historic Environment
'It has been researched and compiled with great care and thought for ease of use. I like this book and the quality of the photographs is magnificent. There are many highlights, but one particular section is a masterstroke: Assessing Condition & Causes of Decay consists of 10 glorious pages of photographs and tabular information presenting with deft clarity how to recognise and describe every imaginable type of stone weathering and decay.'
