SUMMARY:Existing Masonry Night School: Transitional Structures #5 - Rehabilitation Options for Transitional Masonry
DESCRIPTION:During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment\, Maintenance\, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures\, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing\, maintaining\, and where needed\, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. \nOnce the assessment is complete and the deterioration mechanisms are known\, rehabilitation options can be considered. This session will introduce rehabilitation options for the transitional masonry wall system to be considered based on deterioration mechanisms\, including those related to structural concerns and water management. The session will discuss the potential influence of the Secretary of the Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties in rehabilitation options as they apply to these buildings. \n\nView the Recording of this webinar \n\nAbout the Presenter\nMatthew C. Farmer\, P.E. is Principal of Wiss\, Janney\, Elstner Associates\, Inc. (WJE). He first joined the New Jersey office of WJE in 1986 and moved to the Washington\, DC office in 1990. Mr. Farmer has served as principal investigator on numerous evaluations of concrete\, steel\, and timber structures\, as well as those involving clay\, concrete\, stone\, and cast stone masonry. He has concentrated his practice in the area of building enclosure systems engineering\, design\, investigation\, analysis\, and repair. Projects have included institutional\, commercial\, and residential projects\, as well as numerous historic landmarks. Mr. Farmer served as Manager of the Fairfax\, Virginia office from 1994 until 2006\, when he became a Principal with WJE and continues to practice. Mr. Farmer is also coteaching a graduate level class on preservation engineering at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore\, Maryland. Prior to joining WJE\, Mr. Farmer was a structural engineer with the Washington\, D.C.\, office of Skidmore\, Owings and Merrill. \nMr. Farmer is a licensed engineer in Washington\, D.C.\, Maryland\, and Virginia. He is a sub-committee chair for ASTM Committee C18 on dimension Stone\, and a member of ASTM C12\, and C27. He is also a member of IIBEC\, ASCE\, and TMS where he serves on several committees. Mr. Farmer has published over 30 technical papers and articles plus presented at over 30 events.

SUMMARY:Existing Masonry Night School: Transitional Structures #6 - Implementation of a Rehabilitation Project for Transitional Masonry
DESCRIPTION:During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment\, Maintenance\, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures\, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing\, maintaining\, and where needed\, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. \nOnce an assessment is complete and a rehabilitation approach has been selected\, implementing the rehabilitation work is the next milestone. Bid documents for rehabilitation projects of traditional masonry wall systems should address two fundamental issues. First\, all existing conditions\, particularly concealed conditions\, are not known and can’t be known until the work begins. Further\, these conditions are progressively revealed as the work progresses. Second\, the as-built geometry of the concealed portions of assembly may differ from what was revealed during the investigation or what was shown on the drawings. These geometries and concealed conditions could require modifications of the assumed repair details and potentially the scope and extent of repairs. Once the repair work begins\, interaction and communication between the contractor\, designer and owner are critical to the success of the project and controlling project costs. This session will introduce the basic approaches for implementation of the rehabilitation including document preparation and field implementation of the repairs. \n\nView the Recording of this webinar \n\nAbout the Presenter\n \nEdward Gerns is a Senior Principal with the Chicago office of Wiss\, Janney\, Elstner Associates\, Inc. and has been with WJE since 1990. Mr. Gerns has extensive experience related to the investigation and repair of historic and modern masonry clad buildings. Since joining\, Mr. Gerns has served as both project manager and project architect/engineer on assignments related to the investigation and repair of distressed conditions in existing buildings. His involvement as a project manager has ranged from diagnosis of failures to administration of repairs\, including the designing and evaluation of repair options; cost analysis; bid procedure and contract administration. He has performed evaluations of brick\, terra cotta and stone masonry\, assessed causes of collapse or distress cladding systems\, and has inspected numerous structures damaged by wind\, ice\, snow\, and fire. He has conducted numerous condition surveys and overseen preparation of documents for the repair of both contemporary and historic landmark masonry buildings and structures. \nMr. Gerns has been involved in TMS since 2008. He is the current Chairman of the Existing Masonry Committee.

SUMMARY:Existing Masonry Night School: Transitional Structures #7 - Developing a Maintenance Plan for Existing Masonry
DESCRIPTION:During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment\, Maintenance\, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures\, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing\, maintaining\, and where needed\, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. \nWhile masonry is extraordinarily durable\, maintenance is required from time to time. Based on inspection and assessments performed\, issues may be found that require regular monitoring. Learn about common maintenance for masonry to ensure it continues to serve as intended. Techniques to routinely monitor the condition of masonry\, cracks and more will also be discussed. \n\nView the Recording of this webinar \n\nAbout the Presenter\nCasey Williams\, P.E.\, is a Senior Project Manager at Simpson Gumpertz & Heger\, Inc. (SGH) in the Building Technology group. She has been involved with the investigation and remedial design of building enclosures\, as well as the subsequent construction administration of repairs\, including the New York State Capitol\, the Massachusetts State House\, and the First Church of Christ Scientist. Her focus is on historic building investigation and repair projects. Ms. Williams has experience investigating and designing repairs for slate\, copper\, and various membrane roofing systems; brick and stone masonry; and architectural terra cotta.
