Conservation Case Studies
Leazes Park, Newcastle
Concrete Inspection and Repair Strategies
Built in the late 19th Century, the concrete terrace at Leazes Park in Newcastle has suffered from long term degradation.
Rowan Technologies carried out a detailed investigation of the terrace and developed repair strategies for its conservation. The work included quantification of the extent of the degradation, the nature of the damage and repair/replacement options. Concrete sampling for chemical analysis, detailed defect mapping and a full metal survey were completed. This took into account the terraces age, architectural and structural significance, as well as its future durability.
