Abstract

Many masonry chimney and towers are recognised or registered as structures with heritage significance. They are usually disused and seldom can perform a useful function as originally intended. They are subject to a high degree of deterioration and are seen by their owners as liabilities rather than assets, with potential danger to the public. This paper discusses the issues, with case studies demonstrating methods for dealing with the problems raised.
