Hi,

Following the posts made recently on the "Tie Beam Break" thread in the "Engineering" forum I thought that it might be worth exploring what we actually mean by the following words and indeed can these be placed into any kind of preference order in respect of work to be done to old buildings :-

Conservation, Preservation, Restoration, Refurbishment, Repair, Replacement, Salvage, Reuse, Conversion, Change, Alter.

Are there any other buzz words used in this arena ?
