The techniques are concentrated on the historical and architectural value of Nepali architecture. The write-up will focus on the traditional techniques in modern way but using the same technology to save the other monuments from the natural disasters in Nepal. In some cases some monuments are heavily damaged by the structural strength or due to the age of the building. In both cases modern technology and material are used and some structural system has been completely changed but in Nepal, because of architectural value and Newar technology the architects, engineers, municipality and other authority who are directly involved to the restoration work, want to keep the traditional technology for next future generation. The purpose of this study is to introduce the strategies, construction detail and ensure the guard of the prevailing monuments as well.
