Adaptive Reuse of Historic Masonry Structure Webinar

Hosted by Building Enclosure Council – Chicago

This program examines the complexities of adaptive reuse projects and building enclosures, where historic constructions must adapt to today’s occupancies and integrate with modern systems and performance requirements. Understanding historic construction types and assemblies is essential before planning a successful reuse project; pre-design assessments and distress mechanisms are vital. Through case studies, presenters will explore technical considerations such as masonry performance, distress remediation, and material choices. The course also addresses how regional factors like climate and product selection impact masonry reuse projects.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize the importance of assessing existing conditions before starting a reuse project.

• Understand environmental control strategies in historic/existing structures.

• Evaluate the compatibility of modern and historic systems, and the importance of detailing transitions.

• Identify common challenges in adaptive reuse projects for building enclosures.

• Evaluate climate and performance impacts on material and system selection for adaptive reuse projects.
