Preserving Wood Features in Historic Buildings. An Annotated Bibliography
The bibliography addresses the many aspects of wood preservation and maintenance in historic buildings, from understanding timber construction to prescribing specific treatments. In order to properly evaluate both the significance and condition of wood features, it is necessary to analyze them both as crafted architectural elements and as organic matter, subject to various forms of deterioration. Thus, cited references include those related to construction practices of the past and present as well as works dealing with wood microbiology. In this context, information on the many types of timber decay is presented, along with texts on their causes, detection, prevention, and treatment.
