Abstract:In case of old metal constructions, there is to say where the bearing structure dominates, material issues have a great influence on the behaviour of the construction, in terms of function and safety. Old metal constructions have generally a monumental nature, so preservation, restoration and rehabilitation works are inseparable from material issues. Due to the monumental nature, the material research generally allows only minor damage, so these investigations require the use of special methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
