Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Thirty-two papers from the November 2012 conference report recent developments in the rehabilitation of masonry in old buildings, timber protection, surface treatments, the maintenance of concrete structures, the physicochemical bases of building materials, and strengthening old buildings. Multiple contributions from the Brno University of Technology test the performance of new cement-bonded particle boards, polymer-modified cement composites, hemp binders, limestone cement concretes, and a threshold coupling made from secondary raw materials. Other topics include remediation of wooden structures in Bothmer Castle, modeling the roof truss of Zeliv monastery, color inconsistency in the facades of Vrchotovy Janovice Castle, and killing mold with microwave radiation.
