Preservation Tech Notes are designed to provide practical information on practices and innovative techniques for successfully maintaining and preserving cultural resources. This is essentially a case study of a 1920s house in upstate New York. The Tech Notes are technical, but provide a detailed condition assessment and documentation of the preservation work only on the steel windows. Very thorough information.
