Garden wall.
The brickwork has been repaired and quickly. With reinforcing rods in the
pillars. Didn't see it being done - but they're doing it all under warranty which is good news. Got me thinking. Wouldn't it be a good idea to fix the wood panels in some way which would shear off in a high wind before bringing down the pillars? The wood panels were more or less undamaged, and fit for further use. No idea how you'd work this out or what type of fixing, though. -- *When chemists die, they barium.* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Possibly the panels still attached to the pillars stop the panels flying off and hitting someone. Your solution to protect the pillars may end up with more serious consequences. -- mailto: news {at} admac {dot] myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
