heal.abstract	A recently introduced method for the calculation of the reinforcement required for joining together fractured structural elements of ancient monuments is evaluated in the present study both numerically and experimentally. The method is nowadays applied in the case of the architraves of the Parthenon Temple of the Acropolis of Athens. The numerical analysis is used for the study of the influence of the exact type of loading conditions on the stress field developed, as well as for the evaluation of the stresses developed at the contact area between the architrave and the supporting capitals. The experimental assessment includes the construction of an accurate model of one of the worst damaged architraves of the north colonnade of the Temple and its loading under multi-point bending. During the loading procedure the strains, the deflections and the opening of the cracks were recorded with the aid of a system of strain gauges, dial gauges and COD-clips, respectively. The analysis of the experimental data proved that the initially multi-fractured architrave behaved as an intact structural member for loading levels exceeding the maximum expected load about 100%. © 2006 Taylor & Francis Group.	en
