26
definition of visual inspection
-highly subjective -may miss hidden decay -some defect of the building damage cannot be effectively assessed
27
what is sharp probe
where you poke if nadeteriorate na ang wood or if gahi
28
what is moisture meter
where you poke to know if the wood js cold or not
29
AREAS WHERE PROBLEMS ARE KNOWN TO BE COMMON
- wood in ground contact - that exhibits moisture stains - visible decay - floor joist and girders - sill beam and plates - top plates - roof timbers - opening ( door and window) - material interfaces - porches - crawl spaces - areas that have been modified
30
7 GOLDEN RULE AND ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES FOR WOOD CONSERVATION (triple R, PDAM)
- REMOVE the source of the trouble - RETAIN as much original work as possible - REPAIR in such manner that the original aesthetic effect is not impaired - PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION to effect of your work on ceiling beneath - DO NOT ALTER the balance of stresses - APPROACH the straightening of deformed structures with great care - timbers when meant to be exposed MUST be exposed
31
PARTIAL OR COMPLETE REPLACEMENT
- RETAIN as much original material as possible - REPLACEMENT IN KIND: - the same species - quality - cut - color - grain direction, tool marks and finish
32
MECHANICAL REINFORCEMENT
- REINFORCED WITH DOWELS OR PEGS OF WOOD, METAL, glass fiber reinforced plastic
33
PESTICIDE AND PRESERVATIVE APPLICATION
- cheap - safe to the user - kill insects - fast work - retain filing power - specific to the target pest - won’t leave or form harmful residues - won’t breakdown their effectiveness in storage - won’t absorb animal or plants - wont damage build mat, artifacts, and stuff
34
WHAT IS NHI
NATIONAL HISTORICAL INSTITUTE
35
WHERE DOES THE NHI PUB BASED ON
INTERNATIONALLY ACCEPTED CONSERVATION STANDARDS AND METHODS AND THE NHI EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELD OF ARCHITECTURAL CONSERVATION
36
5 GENERAL CONSERVATION PRINCIPLES OF NHI PUB
- REVERSIBLE (intention should be reversible) - THE LEAST INTERVENTION is best restoration - THE STRUCTURE MUST BE SAFE AND SOUND - RESTORE THE ORIGINAL STRUCTURAL LOGIC AND FABRIC - MATS OR PROCESS MUST MATCH THE STRENGTH OF OR SLIGHTLY WEAKER THAN THE OLD

LIMEWASHING
- prepare a 1:7 ratio or lime an water - stir from timetotim about 7 hours - remove film over line water mixture - clear lime water should be carefully drawn out from the tank to avoid mixing with the lime deposit - use only the clear water solution for washing masonry surface - lime water is applied as a mist using pressure sprayer and repeated approximately 30- 40 times over a period of days and can be vertical and horizontal
