Repair, Retrofit and Inspection of Building Exterior Wall Systems

Description

Eighteen peer-reviewed papers address the complex issues of design, construction, maintenance, evaluation, and repair of building exterior wall systems, both old and new.

Topics cover:
• Survey and assessment techniques
• Establishing the integrity of cladding systems and components
• Case studies of system deterioration and remediation
• Serviceability issues
• Seismic retrofit
• Energy savings attributable to fa?ade upgrades
• Re-cladding of existing buildings.
System types addressed include facades comprised of vintage masonry, limestone, precast concrete panels, thin stone, exposed cast-in-place concrete, aluminum framing, EIFS, and glass and metal walls.

SciTech Book News June 2009 Vol.33, No.2 ISSN 0196-6006 Review
This work contains papers from an October 2006 symposium on the
design, construction, and maintenance of building exterior wall systems,
grouped in sections on testing and evaluation techniques, rehabilitation
and detailing, case studies, and exterior insulation and finish systems.
Papers address diverse topics including survey and assessment techniques
and sampling, establishing the integrity of cladding systems and
components, case studies of system deterioration and remediation, serviceability
issues, seismic retrofit, energy savings, and re-cladding of
existing buildings. Materials addressed include vintage masonry, limestone,
precast concrete panels, thin stone, exposed cast-in-place concrete,
aluminum framing, and glass and metal walls.
