2008.006.046Description
New guide to preservation practice with articles on cutting-edge technologies, preservation theory, and innovative solutions from leading international practitioners. An important ready reference for those entering the field and a refresher for seasoned professionals. Preservation theory, the first section of the primer, features articles that illustrate the philosophies underlying decisions that professionals make in every preservation project, from evaluating old bridges to assessing embodied energy. The second section traces construction from the 18th century up to the recent past, with articles and case histories on methodology, structural evaluation, masonry, investigative techniques, windows, paint, 20th-century buildings, and sustainability. The final section covers archaeology and cultural landscapes. Preservationists Robert A. Young, Michael F. Lynch, Kyle Normandin, and Hugh C. Miller contributed introductory essays to each section.
