  • The Art of Stone Masonry in the Rockbridge County Area (1700 to Present)
    The Art of Stone Masonry In the Rockbridge County Area (1700 to present) Steven Connett Archaeology 377 5/25/83 Dr. McDaniel The art of stone masonry in the Shenandoah valley seems to be somewhat of a mystery prior to the nineteenth century. However, as some of us have learned from the anthropology 101 course: The absence of artifacts (documents in this case) is just as important as the presence of artifacts. In order to make sure that the lack of information was not due to my possible incompetence in research, I spoke with a current day stone masoner named Alvis Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds relayed t o me that when he was trying to learn the skills of stone masonry he, too, had great difficulty in obtaining information and thus decided to teach himself this art through the process of trial and error. Although this information did not directly aid me in my research, Mr. Reynolds did provide me with a bit of information that allowed me to derive a hypothesis on why there is this unusual lack of information in this line of study. I will state my hypothesis in this paper, however, I will not be able to prove it or disprove it due to the deficiency in available information. Mr. Reynolds explained to me that in the eighteenth century there were nomadic stone masoners. These nomadic workers went from valley to valley in search of people who needed help with building their houses. Since these people did not know how to cut stone themselves (after all, stone cutting is not the type of thing that is innate to most people) they had no choice but to p~y these men for their services or go unsheltered.

Brzev Important This encyclopedia contains information contributed by various earthquake engineering professionals around the world. All opinions, findings, conclusions & recommendations expressed herein are those of the various participants, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, the International Association for Earthquake Engineering, the Engineering Information Foundation, John A. Martin & Associates, Inc. or the participants' organizations. Summary Rubble-stone masonry houses are still found throughout Slovenia. This housing type with its special history represents a typical, older residential building in the northwestern part of Slovenia. After their destruction during World War I, these houses were rebuilt, mostly with the recycled stone material from demolished buildings. Many houses of this type were subsequently damaged during the last two earthquakes in Slovenia (1976 Friuli and 1998 Bovec). In order to preserve the country's architectural heritage, about 66% of these houses were strengthened following these earthquakes. http://www.world-housing.net/whereport1view.php?id=100025 1. General Information Buildings of this construction type can be found in the area of Upper Posocje. The residential housing stock built before the World War II in that area is generally of this type.

Our consultant conservation architect Mr Ken Borthwick has written a detailed assessment of this proposed scheme and the paper is attached herewith for your consideration. In his assessment (which closely examines aspects of WSD's HIA) Mr Borthwick looks at the original positioning of Flagstaff House on the crest of the slope, as well as at what he assesses to be its original grounds based on historical plans and early pictures of Flagstaff House in the HIA. He has made an assessment of an historic, rubble stone, fortified defensive wall with loopholes for firing through, which he opines may be the earliest example of British military fortification surviving in Hong Kong and a vital piece of historic evidence. WSD's HIA totally fails to identify this feature for what it is, nor assess its historical and cultural importance.

  • Streatham and Streatham Hill Conservation Area Statement
    Streatham High Road and Streatham Hill conservation area statement Location 1The Streatham High Road & Streatham Hill Conservation Area is in the southern part of the London Borough of Lambeth. The Conservation Area stretches from Telford Avenue to the Streatham United Reform Church encompassing buildings on Streatham Hill (not including those already within the Leigham Court Estate CA31) and those that line the length of Streatham High Road. The Conservation Area includes the impressive length of commercial and purpose built residential apartment blocks dating from the late Victorian, Edwardian and inter-war eras and includes the Free Tate Library, the Police Station, St. Leonard’s Church, the Odeon and ABC Cinemas and other public buildings, which form an important centre for shopping, recreation and commerce. Origins of development and settlement Streatham High Road is one of London’s major arterial roads. From Roman times, and perhaps earlier, it has been an important highway running between London and the 2Weald. Traces of pre Christian burials were discovered when St. Leonard’s was rebuilt in the 19th century and demonstrate that this was a burial place over 2000 years ago. Also discovered were Roman masonry, coins and a Roman ditch. It is probably that the Romans built a military station on the site of St. Leonard’s consisting of a small fort enclosing 2 or three acres surrounded by an earthwork and a ditch. The derivation of the name “Streatham” being from the Saxon “Strat” Street and “Ham” Settlement. Streatham probably evolved as scattered settlements of Saxon farms along the two Roman roads, which ran through the area.

Second, there is a profound need to provide a technology for the safe reconstruction of owner-built rubble stone houses that is not dependent on high quality timber in areas where timber has been depleted or is too costly for many families to afford. The system proposed here, which has been invented and named “Gabion Bands” by Randolph Langenbach of Conservationtech Consulting, is intended to be an alternative means to meet the provisions of the National Building Code, but with a substitution of wire mesh (or polypropylene geogrid mesh) instead of the timber or reinforced concrete that are shown in the NBC for bands (ring beams) in the masonry walls of code compliant buildings.

  • Stone Masonry
    STONE MASONRY Definition: The art of building a structure in stone with any suitable masonry is called stone masonry. Types of Stone Masonry: Stone masonry may be broadly classified into the following two types: 1. Rubble Masonry 2. Ashlar Masonry 1. Rubble Masonry: The stone masonry in which either undressed or roughly dressed stone are laid in a suitable mortar is called rubble masonry. In this masonry the joints are not of uniform thickness. Rubble masonry is further sub-divided into the following three types: Random rubble masonry Squared rubble masonry Dry rubble masonry 1. Random rubble masonry: The rubble masonry in which either undressed or hammer dressed stones are used is called random rubble masonry. Further random rubble masonry is also divided into the following three types: a. Un coursed random rubble masonry: The random rubble masonry in which stones are laid without forming courses is known as un coursed random rubble masonry. This is the roughest and cheapest type of masonry and is of varying appearance. The stones used in this masonry are of different sizes and shapes. before lying, all projecting corners of stones are slightly knocked off. Vertical joints are not plumbed, joints are filled and flushed. Large stones are used at corners and at jambs to increase their strength. Once "through stone" is used for every square meter of the face area for joining faces and backing. Suitability: Used for construction of walls of low height in case of ordinary buildings. b. Coursed random rubble masonry: The random rubble masonry in which stones are laid in layers of equal height is called random rubble masonry.

Affiliated to RGPV & BU, Bhopal Tel: 7024368999, 9977995985|www.sistecgn.ac.in CONSTRUCTION OF SUPER STRUCTURE STONE AND ITS MAJOR TYPES BASED ON FORMATION • Building stone is a natural engineering material. • Stone is obtained from rock by applying certain disintegration techniques like manual quarrying and blasting etc. • Stones obtained from rocks are irregular in shape and size and thus need proper dressing before using for construction purpose. Based on formation of the parent rock it has three types 1. Igneous rock formed by the solidification of molten lava such as volcanic activity For example: Granite 2. Sedimentary formed from silt, marine life, and rocks that have been deposited by running water For example: Limestone, Sandstone 3. Metamorphic igneous or sedimentary rock that have been changed by pressure, heat, or moisture For example: Marble, Slate The stone masonry and its uses • Stone blocks laid with cement or lime mortar in a systematic manner forming a structural mass which can resist load without disintegration is called stone masonry. • Stone masonry is used for the construction of walls, foundation, columns, lintels, arches and other components of structures. • If abundantly available it can serve as an economical building material keeping in view the dressing cost and time of construction. • Undressed or rounded shape stone masonry with insufficient mortar is disastrous in earthquake hazard areas like Balakot, Abbottabad etc. Classification of stone masonry • Masonry can be classified according to the thickness of joints, continuity of courses and finish of face.
