Abstrait: |
Our built heritage suffers. It is becoming increasingly necessary to repair, strengthen and even upgrade its performance. The causes of damages and disorders we discover on our buildings and structures are as various as the reasons that lead us to reconsider the use we make of them. We are therefore faced with the need to understand the behaviour of old structures, discover their shortcomings and imagine how to act effectively in the least denaturing their sometimes highly representative heritage character. These reflections apply to both old buildings and the modern, civil and industrial equipment and call for new ways of thinking from our engineers. |
