Aches and Panes in Historic Window Work
February 11, 2014 |
Windows -- often referred to as the "eyes" of a building -- are among the most significant features of heritage sites. Yet the question remains: repair or replace? Walter Sedovic, FAIA LEED, Principal of WSA/ModernRuins will illustrate why restoration is a beneficial option, highlighting recent performance testing & data, code compliance, material technology, upgrades and embedded resilience of these increasingly rare -- yet still wrongfully maligned -- treasures.
