Abstract

Detailed survey and inspection of the structure of the lecture hall of the Anyuan Miners’ Club were conducted during a restoration project. Nondestructive inspection measures were used to assess the physical and mechanical conditions of the structure. The brick and wood structures of the building were tested, the overall bearing capacity was calculated, and a safety appraisal was conducted in accordance with the codes and standards of the existing building. Inspection results provide architects and construction engineers with reliable data to develop a preservation plan and ensure the safety of the heritage building.
