Under the pleasant title of “familiarly unknown…”, Paul Chemetov and Bernard Marrey presented, at the beginning of the 1970s, in the spaces of the Bon Marché, the results of one of the first heritage studies on the metal architecture of the capital.
In the interval that separates us from this founding event for the diffusion of architectural culture, knowledge about the rise of metallic materials in the 19th century has been enriched and completed, so much so that today we know almost nothing about the adoption of elements made of cast iron, wrought iron, puddled iron or steel in structures, and the use of lead, zinc or copper sheets for roof coverings.
By addressing the issues related to the use of ferrous alloys and some other metals in architecture during the 19th century, we continue in this second publication our reflection on modern construction techniques and the conservation of heritage begun with the volume Reinforced Concrete – History of a technique and safeguarding of 20th century heritage.
