The first phase on Construction Documents have been completed for the Loggia Repair, after review by governing agencies, the structural repairs will begin.
The existing deteriorated adobe blocks were tested for compressive strength and for composition. New adobe blocks are being made on-site and tested to assure they match the existing, per the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Preservation Brief #5.
The drawing shows how the parapet at the Loggia will be repaired and how the beam extensions will be repaired/replaced.
