Ruchinskaya, T (1996) The contribution of the Scottish architect Adam Menelaws to Moscow architecture in the early 19th century. Building Research & Information, 24(2), pp. 75-80. ISSN 0961-3218
Abstract
Adam Menelaws like William Hastie was a Scottish architect who found employment in Moscow. Until recently little has been known in the west of their work. Following her earlier paper on Hastie, Tatiana Ruchinskaya sets the scene for menelaws' contribution to Russian architecture of the period. Moscow's classical architecture of this period was due to the influence of a number of architects, Bajenov and Kazakov of Russia; Bove of France; Dgiliardi of Switzerland and the two Scots, William Hastie and Adam Menelaws. This paper details Menelaws' work and draws on references in the state archives when the author was living and researching in Moscow.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
