"From Green Refugee Shacks to Cozy Homes of Their Own": San Francisco's Earthquake Refugee Cottages as Vernacular ArchitectureUrban, Arianna 27 October 2016 (has links)
The 1906 earthquake and fire in San Francisco devastated the city and left 200,000 people homeless. To house the displaced population, small cottages were built in camps in the city’s parks. With the closure of the camps after one year, refugees were permitted to move their cottages and establish them as permanent homes elsewhere in the city, providing many with the opportunity for first time home ownership. Remarkably, some authenticated cottages have persisted through the decades in the urban landscape. A survey revealed 45 cottage sites; all have been greatly altered over their 110-year lifespans. These modifications make the relief cottages outstanding examples of vernacular architecture--an originally blank building that was moved and adapted according to the needs of its occupants. As such, the cottages reflect manifestations of significance and integrity that necessitate careful, creative evaluation to fit within the framework of modern historic preservation in the United States.

LEED and historic preservation : a study of USGBC’s LEED rating system for new construction and major renovations as it pertains to historic building renovationsHamilton, Andreea Maura Monica 1973- 21 October 2014 (has links)
This thesis discusses the United States Green Building Council’s proposed changes in the LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Rating System for New Construction and Major Renovations from the current 2009 version to the proposed 2012 version, as they pertain to historic building renovation projects. The comparison is aimed at determining whether the proposed changes to the rating system are becoming more favorable to historic preservation, promoting the rehabilitation and reuse of historic buildings as environmentally responsible practices. The discussion is taken a step further by proposing potential modifications and metrics that could be implemented into the LEED® Rating System in order to help advance historic preservation by recognizing the many inherent sustainable qualities of historic buildings, such as regional climate-adaptive features, durable materials and skilled craftsmanship. The upcoming renovation of Battle Hall and West Mall Building, two buildings that are part of the School of Architecture complex at the University of Texas at Austin, serves as case study of historic buildings undergoing major renovations to which both the LEED 2009 and LEED 2012 Draft Rating Systems for New Construction and Major Renovations are applied. An analysis of the results informs the comparison between the two versions of the rating system. The results of the comparison indicate that changes in the LEED® rating system for New Construction and Major Renovation from the 2009 to the 2012 version are favorable for historic preservation. The USGBC is advancing in the right direction with establishing more credits for historic preservation projects. The 2012 3rd Public Comment Draft rating system introduces the notion of “historic building” and that of “historic district” for the first time, in credits that address infill within a historic district and reuse of a historic building, with work performed in accordance with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. This represents a step forward toward integrating historic preservation and building reuse in the vocabulary of sustainability. / text

Architectural salvage : its use and validity within the preservation fieldRepovich, Sheri E. January 2009 (has links)
Architectural salvage can be incorporated into historic preservation projects and
new construction by following The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Historic
Buildings and the US Green Building Council’s LEED standards. Through an inventory
of salvageable materials found within 20 abandoned and dilapidated homes throughout
Muncie, Indiana and a survey of Midwestern salvage, deconstruction and demolition
companies, it is determined that the supply and demand for architectural salvage is
growing. Through an analysis of the cultural, economic and material value architectural
salvage holds, it was also determined that cities throughout the United States should
encourage landfill evasion through the use of deconstruction and architectural salvaging
for all demolition projects. Overall, this thesis details where architectural salvage is
found, how it is removed from buildings, and what materials are available for use within
the preservation and construction fields. / Muncie, Indiana -- Historic preservation -- Salvage market -- Deconstruction -- Salvaged materials -- Sustainable design. / Department of Architecture
