Course description
A course designed for craftsmen, contractors and specifiers with experience of basic masonry conservation techniques, wishing to develop more specialist skills. It covers aspects of stone conservation and repair specifically relevant to architectural detail, including recording, mortar repairs, stone replacement, fracture pinning and grouting, the replication of tooled surfaces, cleaning as well as the use of consolidants and surface treatments. Practical sessions using the ruinette give students the opportunity to practise all techniques under close supervision.
This course is usually best taken after attending the ‘Conservation and repair of stone masonry’ course.
