Genre: architectural drawings (visual works) - UCLA Library Digital Collections Search Results

Description:: Before rebuilding the roof the wall that supported it had to be rebuilt. To that effect detailed measured drawings of the existing remains were made, noting every detail. In that process we found that the position of the holes reserved to receive the members of the structure in the wall did not match the position of the posts reservations across the way. The fortuitous solution to that puzzle came when Frederick Mangones during a trip to Washington went to the Library of Congress and found pictures made by Marines during the occupation showing that the wall was significantly lower. It turned out that the wall above the line marked “reprise de la masonerie” had been built during a previous restoration which placed the reservations without reference to the post holes. With that information we were able to dismantle the erroneous part and reconstruct the wall with the reservations in their proper place ready to receive the wooden structure which we had reconstituted from the traces found in the original wall

Description:: La précédente campagne de restauration de 1950 avait fait quelques progrès dans cet effort de protection en remplaçant certains des linteaux effondrés à l'intérieur de la tour et en coulant une dalle en béton non armé au dernier étage. Avec le temps, la dalle s'est fissurée, ce qui a permis à l'eau de s'accumuler dans le remblai en dessous (voir les sections) causant plus de dégâts. L'une des premières décisions du projet a été de mettre un toit sur la tour pour arrêter les infiltrations d'eau en utilisant les traces du plancher de la superstructure en bois d'origine
