An investigation into the Traditional Method of Production of Omani Sarooj
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.

Assessment of the compressive strength of lime mortar in the joints of brick walls - case study
The paper presents the test results of lime mortar compressive strength in the joints of brick walls. The tests were carried out with the Double Punch Test (DPT) method and with the use of an impact penetrometer (penetrometric test PT) on original ...

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