520			_aLooks at how a more integrated and scientific approach to investigating and understanding historic buildings and their increasingly complex problems, can add value to professional work. Defines 'forensic conservation' as 'conservation practised scientifically and to such a standard that the practitioner could appropriately present any aspect of the work as expert testimony or evidence in a court of law' (Martin Weaver, 1995). Presents a schedule of investigative methods, summarised as a non-destructive survey, defect monitoring and material analysis.
