Description
Course Overview
This session was originally presented at the 2023 IIBEC Building Enclosure Symposium in Orlando, Florida. This course includes the recording of the session, a summative assessment consisting of 10 multiple-choice questions, and surveys required to claim continuing education credit.
Description
The restoration of the Fisher Building, a national historic landmark, and considered a unique and exemplary piece of Art Deco architecture as well as an iconic beacon for the city of Detroit, Michigan, may appear to many to be a daunting task. Utilizing a combination of state-of-the-art 3D Laser Scanning (LiDAR) combined with traditional hands-on examination techniques, a multipronged approach was developed to understand the unique challenges facing the Fisher Building. This presentation will provide the learners with an overview of the lessons learned and will discuss the development and implementation of the restoration plan.
