Description:
Modern Masonry Construction - The Fusion of Tradition, Technology, and Sustainability explores how traditional building wisdom and modern methods come together to address today’s urgent challenges in construction. The volume includes studies on local masonry practices, sustainable materials, seismic strengthening with recycled resources, heritage conservation, and diagnostic tools for existing structures. What makes this book distinctive is the way it shows tradition and innovation not as opposites but as complementary forces, offering architects, engineers, students and academics fresh perspectives and inspiration for new ideas at a time when resilience, sustainability, and community values are more important than ever.
