Makunza1 a* and G.Senthil Kumaran2 b 1Department of Structural and Construction Engineering University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania 2Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering, University of Rwanda, Rwanda amakunzaj@gmail.com,bkumarangs@yahoo.com Keywords: Repair Mortars, rehabilitation, binding materials, hydraulic lime, masonry Abstract Most of the Governmental and religious building structures in Rungwe district are masonry structures built during the German East Africa period.
Introduction Structures may fail not only because of inadequate structural analysis and design but also sometimes due to inappropriate use and analysis of engineering materials in two phase binder based materials (cement, gypsum, mud clays, air and hydraulic limes) due to deformations, movements, constraints and others that also impair the service of our concrete and masonry structures [1].The choice of appropriate repair mortar materials to be used in deteriorating masonry structures for example, can be established through identifying their mix combinations of their original mineral binding materials that were used with aggregate [2].

Dissolution-reorientation-polycondensation process of metakaolin in alkaline solutions related to geopolymerization Zhang Yunsheng1, Sun Wei1, Li Zongjin2 1Jiangsu Key laboratory for Construction Materials, Southeast University, Nanjing, 211189, P.R.China; 2 Department of Civil Engineering, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Clear water Bay, Kowloon, P.R.China) Keywords: Geopolymer; Metakaolin; Dissolution; Reorientation; Polycondensation; Computational chemistry Abstract: Geopolymer is a novel type of inorganic cementitious materials, which has become a hot topic across the world.

Combining the design and track of specific engineering cases, this paper focuses on the in-depth analysis of this mode and summarize its contributing factors, principles, features and limitations, aiming to find problems and propose the corresponding improvement principles and get an objective understanding of the above-mentioned practice from the theoretical level.
Architect should pay attention to the social historical background of architecture, and strive to use architectural language to hint, reflect and reappear the context of social history, so as to link the architecture with history and culture effectively, as well as embody architecture’ s function of inheriting and recording civil culture.
