Criteria and characterization methods of historic mortars

Abstract

This research suggests a methodology for the characterization of historic mortars for the determination of their chemical/mineralogical components and their physico-mechanical characteristics. Moreover, in order to identify similarities or differences among the different characteristics of the mortars, the definition of discrimination criteria was attempted. For this purpose, sampling in 12 different sites of the Mediterranean Basin (Greece, Italy, Turkey) was performed, with the intention of identifying similarities and/or differences, in the technological characteristics of these materials, per historic period and mortar type. The investigation of the mortars was performed, with the use and combination of different techniques and with the application of an appropriate methodology, so as to obtain satisfactory results. The following techniques were employed: grain size distribution analysis, X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis (DTA-TG), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), classical chemica ...
