Earth, air lime and natural hydraulic lime mortars
, 2021 Rendering and plastering mortars supply protection to buildings and may contribute significantly to thermal and acoustic comfort of the indoor environmental. Being protective layers, they suffer aging and use and have to be repaired and sometimes replaced.

Earth mortars and earth-lime renders [PDF]
Conservar Património, 2008 Earth surface coatings play a decorative architectural role, apart from their function as wall protection. In Portuguese vernacular architecture, earth mortars were usually applied on stone masonry, while earth renders and plasters were used on indoors surface coatings. Limestone exists only in certain areas of the country and consequently lime was not

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT This study presents new evidence for the early use of lime mortar during the Early Iron Age at the Piscina Torta site (Ostia, Italy), situated on the earliest Holocene beach ridges in the southern Tiber delta. The site, which was earlier described as a briquetage site, dates from between the late 8th and 6th century BCE and consists of a large

How clayey fines in aggregates influence the properties of lime mortars [PDF]
, 2018 Despite the fact that the maximum content of fines in aggregates is restricted in national and international standards, the use of unwashed sands in restoration mortars is often demanded by restorers due to their colouring properties. The colour of these

, 1970 Masonry mortars are assessed on the basis of tests on specimens prepared and cured in the laboratory. Curing procedures differ depending on the relative amounts of cement and lime in the mortar, and the relation between the end result and that attained in the field, where no concession is made for the composition of the mortar, is often questioned ...

KNaCaSi4O10 Obtained From Crystallization Experiments in the Quaternary System K2O–Na2O–CaO–SiO2
Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 3, March 2026.The compound KNaCaSi4O10 has been identified in crystallization experiments of glasses in the quaternary system K2O–Na2O–CaO–SiO2 and has undergone structural characterization. Vibrational spectroscopic data have been acquired and interpreted using density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Monotonic and cyclic testing of clay brick and lime mortar masonry in compression
Construction and Building Materials, 2018 This research presents an experimental programme on the mechanical characterization of masonry under monotonic and cyclic uniaxial compression. Two different types of standard specimens, running bond walls and stack bond prisms, were built using handmade
