Sažetak
Since the structural system is a constitutive part of a piece of architecture because it materializes the architectural idea, the significance of its form for the transmission of all foreseeable loads makes the bearing system a factor in the design of architecture, which requires multiple criteria for the consolidation and the solution requires both rational and emotional factors. The consolidation of the pre-Romanesque church of St. Mihajlo near Ston is an example of a "soft" strengthening of a small, but culturally important building. The church is one of the finest buildings of the specific "Southern Dalmatian type" of the Croatian pre-Romanesque churches: small-scale, aisleless longitudinal building, barrel-vaulted, originally with a miniature dome above the central of its three bays. Therefore, we decided to strengthen it with a minimal possible intervention, in order to prevent further deterioration caused by the seismic and atmospheric action.
