The building which was constructed to protect important Roman Ruins, had suffered from water damage through the roof. One area had suffered more than others this was the valley in between two pitched roofs.
The main contractor was employed to carry out the re-roofing works; whilst works were underway they noticed large amounts of decay in some of the roof timbers.
The timber carrier beam running through the valley of this ancient timber roof was decayed. To repair it would mean removing the whole of the roof which would have been very expensive and destructive. The Building contractor and the engineer employed Maclennan-LSE Structural Solutions to carry out a repair that would not be less destructive.
Sections of decayed timber were cut out and new matching timber was spliced into place using Property repair systems Timber Resin Splice (TRS) and ROTAFIX resins
