END OF SECTION 01300

Division 1 • page 8 01350 – Historic Preservation Plan

SECTION 01350 - HISTORIC PRESERVATION PLAN

1.1 General

A. General

1. This building is a historically designated structure and is subject to compliance with the Secretary of the

Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.

a. The Standards for Rehabilitation are applicable to this project and apply primarily to the exterior of the building. Text can be found in Appendix F.

b. Information on the standards and how to apply them can be found at:

www.nps.gov/history/hps/tps/standguide/overview/using_standguide.htm This site also provides links to information about the treatment of specific materials and building systems.

2. Failure to make efforts to comply with the standards may result in delisting of the historic resource and result in loss of future grant opportunities.

B. Working with Historic Structures

1. The primary goal of all work related to the preservation of historic buildings is to preserve original materials, assemblies and details.

2. Basic Principles for Preservation

a. Respect the integrity and historic design character of the building.

1. The special character of a historic building can be defined by the authenticity of what exists today of the original building or grouping. Don’t try to change a building’s style or make it look older than it really is. Confusing the character by mixing elements of different styles is not appropriate.

b. Protect and maintain significant features and stylistic elements.

1. Distinctive stylistic features, original construction or examples of skilled craftsmanship should be treated with sensitivity. The best preservation practice is to maintain historic fabric and features through regular and proper maintenance from the outset, to ensure that later intervention is not required. This would include basic maintenance such as rust removal, caulking, limited paint removal and reapplication of paint.

c. Preserve key, character-defining features of the property or building group.

1. Key features are those that help convey the character of the resource as it appeared during its period of historic significance. These may include the basic structural system and building materials, as well as the composition and detail of windows, doors, porches and architectural ornamentation.

d. Repair deteriorated historic features. Only consider replacements when elements cannot be repaired.

1. Maintain the existing material, using recognized preservation methods whenever possible. It is important to remember, for example, that wood today is not the same as wood used in original or early construction. Early wood was grown, chosen, cut and seasoned to create a much more durable material. Retain and repair if at all possible.

C. The Preservation Plan.

1. The preservation plan shall include, as applicable:

a. A written and pictorial description of the methods proposed to accomplish the work as described in these documents. Include information such as:

1. Methods required to excavate and place new concrete materials.

2. Methods required to place and install new structural members.

3. Methods to be used to drill new anchors in brick walls

4. Methods for restoring brick walls and matching mortar in new and re-pointed areas.

5. Methods proposed for any cleaning activities.

6. Any other construction methods or processes that will require special attention for the protection and appropriate rehabilitation of the structures.

01350 – Historic Preservation Plan Division 1 • page 9

b. The plan shall address all temporary shoring and protection that will be required to protect the buildings from damage during the work proposed.

c. The plan shall include any other information that is relevant to the protection and preservation

2. The Contractor shall provide a statement of understanding of the requirements of the relevant standards as part of the bid documents along with descriptive information on experience working with historic structures.

D. Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Structures

1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure or site and its environment, or to use the property for its originally intended purpose.

2. The distinguishing original qualities of character of a building, structure, site or its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic materials or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible.

3. All buildings, structure, sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged.

4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right and this significance shall recognized and respected.

5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.

6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, wherever possible. In the event that replacement is necessary, the new materials should match the materials being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from other buildings or structures.

7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken.

8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and preserve archeological resources affected by, or adjacent to, any project.

9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural, or cultural materials, and such design is compatible with the size, scale, color, material, and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment.

10. Whenever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations were to be removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.
