Fred H. Schott & Associates CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS City of Lompoc January 11, 2013 Attn: Craig Dierling, P.E. 100 Civic Center Plaza Lompoc, CA Re: Structural Observation of Lompoc Theater, 112-118 North H Street, Lompoc, Ca. Dear Craig, On December 13, 2012, a site visit was performed for the Lompoc Theater to determine the existing conditions, structural sufficiency, and structural deterioration, then make recommendations to rehabilitate each roof structure to meet current code. Each area of the theater was examined and the following was found: The Fly-Tower roof structure has multiple holes in a large roof hatch which are allowing water and pigeons to get inside the stage area. Based on our previous inspection in 1993, the fly-tower roof has 1x6 straight sheathing boards which can not transfer shear loads. There is also no shear connection between the roof and the walls. The exterior concrete walls have a few minor cracks, but are in good shape. The beams beneath the stage floor appear to be undamaged and the majority of the ceiling beneath the stage does not have water damage so the joists are most likely not damaged either. Towards the north end of the stage, the ceiling beneath shows substantial water damage and mold growth. The joists at this location may be damaged also. The floor sheathing on the stage area has been exposed to weather and pigeon droppings, but appears to be solid. Further opening of the stage may expose mold or rotten wood. Figure 1: Holes in roof hatch above the stage. Figure 2: Framing beneath stage; small crack in basement wall. -
The Five Orders of Architecture

Giacomo Barozzi was born on the 1st of October, 1507, in Vignola, near Modena, Italy. He was orphaned at an early age. His mother's family, seeing his talents, sent him to an art school in Bologna, where he distinguished himself in drawing and by the invention of a method of perspective. To perfect himself in his art he went to Eome, studying and measuring all the ancient monuments there. For this achievement he received the honors of the Academy of Architecture in Eome, then under the direction of Marcello Cervini, afterward Pope. In 1537 he went to France with Abbé Primaticcio, who was in the service of Francis I. Barozzi was presented to this magnificent monarch and received a commission to build a palace, which, however, on account of war, was not built. At this time he de- signed the plan and perspective of Fontainebleau castle, a room of which was decorated by Primaticcio. He also reproduced in metal, with his own hands, several antique statues. Called back to Bologna by Count Pepoli, president of St. Petronio, he was given charge of the construction of that cathedral until 1550. During this time he designed many GIACOMO BAROZZr OF VIGNOLA. 3 other buildings, among which we name the palace of Count Isolani in Minerbio, the porch and front of the custom house, and the completion of the locks of the canal to Bologna. -
NEIL AYLING: COMPOSITE ORDER 17 JANUARY - 1 MARCH, 2014 Private View, Thursday 16 January, 6 - 9Pm
NEIL AYLING: COMPOSITE ORDER 17 JANUARY - 1 MARCH, 2014 Private View, Thursday 16 January, 6 - 9pm Composite Order presents a series of new sculptures by British artist Neil Ayling (b.1983), exploring the interiors of Venetian churches and basilica, specifically St. Giorgio Maggiore on the Palladio Island. Ayling encountered a number of these classical buildings on a recent trip to the Venice Biennale and became fascinated by a particular architectural feature dating from the Renaissance period called Composite Order, that describes a combination of particular decorative styles used to embellish the uppermost section of a column. For his large-scale sculptures, that are up to nine feet high, Ayling used the photographs he made of the architectural details as a starting point, reconfiguring them by cutting and folding the printed image along the lines and angles of the building, creating structural forms that splay out in every angle creating irregular shapes entirely at odds with the logics of classical composition. Some of the sculptures are covered in fragments of the photographic images, applied using wet plaster, similar to the tradition of frescoes and trompe l’oeil common to Venetian churches. The exhibition also includes a site-specific installation made in response to the gallery’s architecture. Installed at ceiling height, the piece twists its way throughout the two gallery buildings, drawing the viewers’ eye upwards and echoing the effect of entering the cavernous interiors of the churches in Venice. Notes for Editors: • Neil Ayling was born in Ascot, Berkshire in 1983 and currently lives and works in London. Ayling graduated from Winchester School of Art, Sculpture, and then went on to the Royal College of Art and graduated in 2010 (MA Fine Art Sculpture). -

Sacred Places Europe: 108 Destinations
Reviews from Sacred Places Around the World “… the ruins, mountains, sanctuaries, lost cities, and pilgrimage routes held sacred around the world.” (Book Passage 1/2000) “For each site, Brad Olsen provides historical background, a description of the site and its special features, and directions for getting there.” (Theology Digest Summer, 2000) “(Readers) will thrill to the wonderful history and the vibrations of the world’s sacred healing places.” (East & West 2/2000) “Sites that emanate the energy of sacred spots.” (The Sunday Times 1/2000) “Sacred sites (to) the ruins, sanctuaries, mountains, lost cities, temples, and pilgrimage routes of ancient civilizations.” (San Francisco Chronicle 1/2000) “Many sacred places are now bustling tourist and pilgrimage desti- nations. But no crowd or souvenir shop can stand in the way of a traveler with great intentions and zero expectations.” (Spirituality & Health Summer, 2000) “Unleash your imagination by going on a mystical journey. Brad Olsen gives his take on some of the most amazing and unexplained spots on the globe — including the underwater ruins of Bimini, which seems to point the way to the Lost City of Atlantis. You can choose to take an armchair pilgrimage (the book is a fascinating read) or follow his tips on how to travel to these powerful sites yourself.” (Mode 7/2000) “Should you be inspired to make a pilgrimage of your own, you might want to pick up a copy of Brad Olsen’s guide to the world’s sacred places. Olsen’s marvelous drawings and mysterious maps enhance a package that is as bizarre as it is wonderfully acces- sible. -
Decoding the Pantheon Columns
$UFKLWHFWXUDO Graßhoff, G and Berndt, C 2014 Decoding the Pantheon Columns. +LVWRULHV Architectural Histories, 2(1): 18, pp. 1-14, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/ ah.bl RESEARCH ARTICLE Decoding the Pantheon Columns Gerd Graßhoff* and Christian Berndt* The goal of this study has been to reconstruct the design principles underlying the construction of the Pantheon’s portico columns as well as to demonstrate how digital investigation methods and models can be used to improve our understanding of ancient architectural knowledge. Thanks to the data of the Bern Digital Pantheon Model, a synthesis of all the scanned surface points obtained during a digitization cam- paign of the Karman Center for Advanced Studies in the Humanities of the University of Bern in 2005, we have been able to determine empirically the column profiles of the portico with unprecedented precision. A second stage of our investigation involved explaining the profile of the column shafts by a construction model that takes into account the parameters recommended by Vitruvius and design methods such as those that can be found in the construction drawings discovered at Didyma. Our analysis shows that the design principles of the portico’s columns can be successfully reconstructed, and has led to the surpris- ing result that at least two different variants of a simple circle construction were used. Finally, we have been able to deduce from the distribution of the different profile types among the columns that the final profiles were designed and executed in Rome. Introduction design could reach a considerable degree of complexity. The shafts of the Pantheon’s portico columns are com- For example, Stevens believed that the Pantheon’s por- posed of granite monoliths, forty Roman feet tall, which tico columns exhibit a profile that is based on two tan- were excavated from two Egyptian quarries. -

Brief History of the Roman Empire -Establishment of Rome in 753 BC
Brief History of the Roman Empire -Establishment of Rome in 753 BC (or 625 BC) -Etruscan domination of Rome (615-509 BC) -Roman Republic (510 BC to 23 BC) -The word 'Republic' itself comes from the Latin (the language of the Romans) words 'res publica' which mean 'public matters' or 'matters of state'. Social System -Rome knew four classes of people. -The lowest class were the slaves. They were owned by other people. They had no rights at all. -The next class were the plebeians. They were free people. But they had little say at all. -The second highest class were the equestrians (sometimes they are called the 'knights'). Their name means the 'riders', as they were given a horse to ride if they were called to fight for Rome. To be an equestrian you had to be rich. -The highest class were the nobles of Rome. They were called 'patricians'. All the real power in Rome lay with them. Emperors of the Roman Empire -Imperial Period (27BC-395AD) Augustus: Rome's first emperor. He also added many territories to the empire. Nero: He was insane. He murdered his mother and his wife and threw thousands of Christians to the lions. Titus: Before he was emperor he destroyed the great Jewish temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. Trajan: He was a great conqueror. Under his rule the empire reached its greatest extent. Diocletian: He split the empire into two pieces - a western and an eastern empire. -Imperial Period (27BC-395AD) Hadrian: He built 'Hadrian's Wall' in the north of Britain to shield the province from the northern barbarians. -
