... of 3DP for cultural heritage rehabilitation, requiring the development of new mixtures (lime mortars, for example) compatible with the existing surface and, eventually, incorporating some residues that may improve interesting properties; the design of different extruders, compatible with the new mixtures...

...Diogo Henrique de Bem; Priscila Ongaratto Trentin; Ronaldo A. Medeiros-Junior Purpose Efflorescence formation is very common in cement-based materials. In the case of mortar, efflorescence is more studied when only Portland cement is used as a binder. However, the repair of historical heritage...

...A.M. Forster; K. Carter Purpose The selection of lime mortars for masonry structures can be an important component of a repair or new build project. This selection is considered difficult due to the number of variables to consider during the decision‐making process and the perceived inherent...

...Colin Williams; Steve Goodhew; Richard Griffiths Purpose The purpose of the paper is to explore the structural feasibility of substituting traditional thick joint mortars with earth slurry mortars modified with varying amounts of sand. Thin jointing of earth blocks would reduce the cost...

... knowledge of the in‐service performance of rendered façades within the scope of predictive maintenance. The bulk density of hardened mortar is defined as the ratio between the dry material's mass and its total volume (including that of open pores) (Vlack, 1970). This parameter is prescriptive...

... such as the stupa), analysis of conservation material (fired brick, mud mortar, and mud brick), and collection of feedback data on conservation measures. In 2005 the Moenjodaro Conservation and Research Centre (MCRC) was established as a management structure of the site. This was dismantled after one year...

...Alan Forster Purpose The purpose of this research is to highlight issues relating to binder migration in traditional lime mortars and the potential consequences of this phenomenon. The paper focuses on traditional mass masonry construction and will be of special interest to those surveying...
