  • Iron, Section 2 (Part 4: Historic Lighthouse Preservation)
    PRESERVATION TREATMENTS WARNING: Many of the maintenance and repair techniques described in this text, particularly those relating to cleaning and painting, are potentially dangerous and should be carried out only by experienced and qualified workmen using protective equipment suitable to the task. It may be necessary to involve a USCG engineer or architect, preservation architect, or building conservator familiar with lighthouse preservation to assess the condition of the iron and prepare contract documents for its treatment. Cast-iron and steel features such as gallery deck brackets, handrails, skeletal structures, pilasters and door pediments, window architraves, as well as textured, finished surfaces such as raised diamond pattern non-skid surfaces, are important in defining the historic character of the lighthouse (see Figures 20 and 21). It is essential that the character- defining features are retained during any treatment. It should also be noted that while cast iron is among the most durable of historic building materials, it is also the most susceptible to damage by improper maintenance or repair techniques and by harsh or abrasive cleaning methods. Therefore, all treatment should be executed using the gentlest means possible. In Part V., Beyond Basic Preservation, examples of treatments that are considered rehabilitation and restoration are illustrated and discussed. WPTC photo WPTC photo Figure 20. Figure 21. Part IV. B, Page 14 IRON Protection and Stabilization (Mothballing) Despite their inherent durability, a historic iron lighthouse that receives only minimal or no routine maintenance is highly vulnerable to decay if it is not protected and stabilized properly. To properly protect and stabilize a historic iron lighthouse, a thorough inspection and diagnosis of all iron features: caisson structures, cast-iron plate walls, decorative features (cornices, door and window surrounds, decks, etc.) should be performed using the inspection chart in the preceding section as a guide.
