History gathers individually occurring events along the datum of such an idea and absorbs it into a realm of simultaneity. Similarly, this thesis attempts to amplify the co-existence of overlaying fragments of construction. Interventions with extant artifacts are another layer compounded toward a continuing history of building. This investigation is a search for an architecture with a presence of permanence and historical continuity.iv, 40 leavesapplication/pdfenIn Copyrightbuilding historyconstructionlibrarymonkschurchLD5655.V855 1996.B796Thesishttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-07312007-164907/http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-03242009-040752/http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-06112007-092917/
