This volume focuses on research and practical issues connected with
mortars on historic structures. The book is divided into four
sections: Characterisation of Historic Mortars, Repair Mortars and
Design Issues, Experimental Research into Properties of Repair
Mortars, and Assessment and Testing. The papers present the latest
work of researchers in their field. The individual contributions
were selected from the contributions to the 2nd Historic Mortars
Conference, which took place in Prague, September, 22-24, 2010. All
papers were reviewed and improved as necessary before publication.
This peer review process by the editors resulted in the 34
individual contributions included in here. One extra paper
reviewing and summarising State-of-the-Art knowledge covered by
this publication was added as a starting and navigational point for
the reader. The editors believe that having these papers in print
is important and they hope that it will stimulate further research
into historic mortars and related subjects.
This book presents a state of the art in mortar characterisation,
experimentation with and applications of new mortars for
conservation and repair of historic buildings. This volume includes
the following topics: characterisation of historic mortars
(methods, interpretation, application of results), development of
new materials for conservation (compatibility, durability, mix
designs), the history of mortar technology and fundamental
experimental studies of material properties. The papers have been
selected from those presented at the 3rd Historic Mortars
Conference, held in Glasgow, Scotland, September 11-14th 2013. All
the papers here underwent a two stage peer review process, for the
conference and again for this volume. In some cases this has
resulted in a revision and updating of content.
