Tilmann Andreas Wanke: Documentation of collapsed walls and wall stubs. back

Overview:  
 
Abstract: The archaeological documentation of collapsed walls or those upset in connected units require special demands. These features have a high source value, because they contend the possibility of reconstructing of the former arising architecture beyond a two dimensional ground plan. Yet the survey and plan drawing takes a lot of effort due to its complicated geometry. This assigment deals with the specific requirements for the documentation of collapsed stone walls and develops a new approach. This approach includes a proposal for different accuracy steps for the drawn record. The second part shows and explains the results of different survey-methods proved on a Testarea and derives reconmmendations for the practical work.
