Dear people ,i am an architect and doing research on the said topic.
i have done corrections to some faulty constructions in past esp steel
structures.i have strenghtened some old buildings and provided
remedies.
Of late,i have developed further interest in remedial architecture and
rehab.of old buildings .In future, i intend to publish a Do-it-yourself
kit in rehab / remedial therapy to sick / aged worn-out buildings as it
could be useful to masses.
Could i seek your valuable observations/experiences in this effort to
widen my horizon on the related field?

See if you can get a copy of the International Existing Building Code
(IEBC). That is the current building code standard in the US for rehab of
existing buildings.
