Training and Capacity Building Program

Training and Capacity Building Program

Lime Research and Testing Center is continuously working in the field of research on lime and lime mortar. For this, the Center has adopted BIS standards as well as some other international standards. LRTC is continuously developing best practices for testing lime and lime mortars to support historic building conservation. From time to time, LRTC organizes workshops and training programs for students, professionals and conservators.

INTACH LRTC, ICI Lucknow launched a training and capacity-building program for conservation architects, engineers, conservators and contractors. We have divided our training program into different categories so that everyone can access this facility as per their convenience. Also, we can modify our training program as per the requirement of the organization or individuals so that everyone can take advantage of our training facilities. The objective of this training program is to train individuals in the field of building conservation so that they can meet the need of ancient building construction.
