Long-term monitoring of defects in historic buildings

Ladislav Klusáček, Petr Ducháč, Zdeněk Bažant

Aesthetic and static reconstructions and rehabilitations of buildings were already carried in the distant past. There are a number of methods and technologies for ensuring the stability of buildings. All variants have a number of differences over one thing in common; their wrong choice for a particular case of failure may result in the deteriorating state of the structure. The article describes the long-term monitoring of the statically unbalanced castle in Vyškov. The results will serve as a general guide in understanding the behavior of the structure and its subsequent repairs.

Keywords: historical structure; monitoring; stabilization; cracks; mechanism of failure; possibilities of repair; Baroque castle
