Abstract
Presented in this article are the traditional and modern methods of teaching architecture students the preparation of building survey documentation. Timber buildings that have stood for tens of years deteriorate and suffer damage. To repair and subject them to adaptive reuse, it is necessary to prepare the building survey documentation because in many cases the documentation for such historical buildings has not survived. Survey documentation including drawings and measurements is prepared for developers, with the intent of supporting conservation work and academic research, as well as listing in the monuments register. The author has almost 20 years’ experience in supervising student practical training in building survey documentation preparation, gained in the Faculty of Architecture at Cracow University of Technology (FA-CUT), Kraków, Poland. This training took place in Zakopane, Poland, during which exceptional specimens of timber architecture built towards the end of the 19th and the start of the 20th Century were recorded, to document historical buildings for the Tatra Museum archives.
