THE CHALLENGE
CBI performed sensitive slate and copper roof repairs as well as a structural peer review of the historic library.
CBI’S SOLUTION
The review of the building was limited to the primary structure, and did not include such elements as cladding, stairs, equipment supports, non-load bearing partitions, railings. CBI reviewed the design loads and other design criteria and the geotechnical report and made independent calculations of representative members. The building was found to be conceptually correct.
