Problems in the Repair of Historic Brick Masonry Buildings
Older load bearing brick masonry structures are often in a condition of advanced deterioration and may be leaning, bowing, cracking or suffering some other form of deterioration. Problems may arise from nearby demolition, excavation or just a general lack of maintenance. Many of these may be in danger of imminent collapse. The problem of detecting problems, effecting repairs and stabilizing these buildings is presented. Case studies showing examples of these problems and possible solutions are presented.
