Innovative hydraulic cement mortar for building and restoration


Acronym: ON-Tech

Description

The project aim is the formulation, production, chemical-physical, biological and aging characterization of hydraulic cement mortar starting from materials and the original recipe of the ancient Roman hydraulic mortar.

The technologies and know-how of the partners will be involved to develop eco-friendly materials, not harmful to human’s health and compatible with ancient materials, to be used both in modern construction and in the restoration of cultural heritage.
