An investigation into the Traditional Method of Production of Omani Sarooj

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1999
In the past, sarooj had been used as the basic cementing material with which the A flaj system (the irrigation system used in Oman) was built. Worldwide, materials like sarooj existed and were known for their good impermeability and long durability.

Characterization of historic mortars and the effect of rice husk ash (RHA) on quicklime

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
Historic mortars are minerologically characterized for many reasons pertaining to traditional building conservation. In order to determine the binding material of the historic masonary building, this material must be sufficiently separated from the ...
