Notre Dame: crews begin to carefully cut away fused scaffolding
The restoration of the cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris, which was badly damaged by fire on 15 April, has entered a new and delicate phase. This involves removing a vast and heavy scaffolding structure at roof level that became fused by the intense heat. It had been erected before the fire in order to carry out restoration work on the 19th-century roof spire, whose dramatic collapse was seen on screens around the world.
For The Art Newspaper, architect Francesco Bandarin gives a detailed account of the crucial next step in the efforts to restore the fire-damaged cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris.
"The removal of the scaffolding requires three levels of steel beams to be positioned around its exterior to form a stabilising 'belt,'" Bandarin explains this next phase which is scheduled to take until April.
