Old structures that are made of adobe or brick walls are usually unreinforced and not designed for lateral forces. In-plane loads applied to unreinforced masonry walls (URM) are the usual cause of damage and failure of old buildings. In this research, sm...

A render is the first protective layer of exterior walls against the outdoor climate, which, due to its constitution, aims to gradually slow down the liquid moisture penetration to prevent it from reaching the wall inner layers. Due to the future expecte...
