Historic Structures Report: Process and Product
Public opening reception on Tuesday, January 17th from 4:30-6:00 p.m.
The Circle Gallery in the Owens Library (ground floor of Caldwell Hall) presents an exhibition curated by Dr. Mark Reinberger, coordinator of the UGA graduate program in Historic Preservation entitled, Historic Structures Report: Process and Product. The exhibit explores best management practices with regards to historic buildings and their care from the ground up. The show will explore elements of buildings including roofing materials such as wood shingles, tiles and slate; lumber with different saw cuts that tell a story about the building’s provenance; plaster and lath for wall structure; and various building materials including brick, stone, tabby, and wood.
Historic Structures Report: Process and Product explores the process of creating an HSR. Included in this process is historic research on the building; what sorts of techniques were used; examples of the end product, as well as building materials. The exhibit draws on 18 years of HSR produced by students in the Building Materials Conservation course of CED’s Masters of Historic Preservation program.
