Section 312IAC26-4-7. Professional standards for historic preservation projects involving stabilization

   The following standards apply if a project under this rule involves stabilization:

(1) The structural stability of a property shall be reestablished through:

(A) the reinforcement of load bearing members or by arresting material deterioration leading to structural failure; and

(B) the return of weather-resistant conditions on the property.

(2) Stabilization shall be accomplished with as little detraction as possible from the appearance of the property. Reinforcement facilities shall be designed and placed, if practicable, so as not to intrude upon or detract from the aesthetic and historical quality of the property.
