Trataremos de enseñar los procedimientos básicos para recolocar una lápida de piedra. Hay dos cosas importantes que recordar. Lo primero es asegurarse de la seguridad personal y lo segundo es no hacer daño a la lápida como tal. Estas son estructuras delicadas pero pesadas y se debe de ejercitar una gran cantidad de cuidado y precaución al moverlas.

Antes de empezar, tenemos que asegurarnos de que todas nuestras partes estén seguras y estables.]]> http://ncptt.nps.gov/recolocacion-basica-de-monumentos-2007-02/feed/ 0 http://ncptt.nps.gov/limpieza-basica-para-monumentos-2007-01/ http://ncptt.nps.gov/limpieza-basica-para-monumentos-2007-01/#comments Thu, 15 Sep 2011 20:27:19 +0000 Jason Church http://ncptt.nps.gov/?p=13975 http://ncptt.nps.gov/limpieza-basica-para-monumentos-2007-01/feed/ 0 http://ncptt.nps.gov/cmc-basics-in-lake-geneva-wi/ http://ncptt.nps.gov/cmc-basics-in-lake-geneva-wi/#comments Thu, 11 Aug 2011 20:47:33 +0000 Jason Church http://ncptt.nps.gov/?p=12782 Wisconsin State Historic Preservation Office, will offer a cemetery monument conservation basics workshop May 2012, in Lake Geneva, Wisc.  The training is targeted to the nonprofessional, such as church sextons, genealogists, cemetery grounds workers, and family members.
