REHABILITATION OF THE TOWER OF PISA, MY METHODS

摘要

The rehabilitation works for the Leaning Tower of Pisa was completed in 2001. Two of my suggestions were adopted. The first is the use of counterweight to prevent the leaning from developing further. The second is to use the anchor bolt and low-pressure grouting to strengthen the structure. A method to compute the settlements and tilts of the Tower in the past 800 years is also proposed. A few errors in the published work on the Leaning Tower of Pisa are pointed out in this paper.
