Lessons Learned Historical documents are key tools: Engineers’ drawings & reports Historic photos (300dpi) Restoration drawings & photos Don’t believe everything you read…

Lessons Learned Knowledge of the literature can be helpful (historic & current) Common terminology is good (i.e., use what the engineers used) Communication between historians, engineers, architects, and technicians is critical

Lessons Learned Lime putty mortar has not performed well for us It has hardened in storage It has not lasted in application

Lessons Learned Barrier islands are no place to be in a hurricane…. It is good to have friends. Be careful not to toss too much in the cleanup process

Recommended Reading Seacoast Fortifications by Emanuel Raymond Lewis (1970) Ramparts by Marguerita Z. Herman (1992) A Legacy in Brick and Stone by John R. Weaver (2001) American Seacoast Defenses: A Reference Guide by Mark A. Berhow (2004)

This sign was found on Cat Island, 130 miles west of its original location, two years after it was lost in Hurricane Ivan
