Fabrication and Restoration of
Red Cross Building
Washington, DC
| We repair any building stone by patching or by introducing elements carved from the stone, called "dutchmen", into the damaged area and setting with epoxy.
45 trailer loads of stone were removed from the façade of the Red Cross Building in Washington, DC, not because of any defects in the 50 year old material, but to accommodate a building addition. While off the building, the stone was refitted for new anchorage (note kerfs in the end of the stone) and equipped with laminated "liner" posts, intended to support some very wide units including a 30 inch thick, 20 ton lintel stone across the front of the building.
