This paper reports the effect of bacterial calcium carbonate precipitation on sorption of engineered cementitious composites (ECC), a high performance fiber-reinforced ce [...]

Frost is one of the main degradation processes affecting historic buildings in cold environments. Lime mortar is particularly sensitive to degradation by freeze-thaw cycl [...]

In the domain of heritage buildings conservation, interventions must be designed, whenever possible, to maintain existing materials instead of their replacement by new on [...]

Experimental work has been carried out in order to describe the influence of hot mixing on the properties of hardened mortars in comparison with mortars made of lime hydr [...]

In this paper, compressive strength, porosity and two “in situ” techniques (ultrasonic velocity and rebound hardness test) are used for the characterisation of mortar [...]
