Repair, Retrofit and Inspection of Building Exterior Wall Systems

Editor(s): Paul G. Johnson, Jon M. Boyd

Eighteen peer-reviewed papers address the complex issues of design, construction, maintenance, evaluation, and repair of building exterior wall systems, both old and new.

Topics cover:
• Survey and assessment techniques
• Establishing the integrity of cladding systems and components
• Case studies of system deterioration and remediation
• Serviceability issues
• Seismic retrofit
• Energy savings attributable to facade upgrades
• Re-cladding of existing buildings.

System types addressed include facades comprised of vintage masonry, limestone, precast concrete panels, thin stone, exposed cast-in-place concrete, aluminum framing, EIFS, and glass and metal walls.
