Mine tailings as partial raw materials substitutes in restoration and modern mortars: converting a "waste" to a "product"
Innovative and sustainable mortars with mine waste as partial replacement of cement and/or aggregates, to be used for the restoration of cementitious monuments of the 19th-20th century, or to strengthen contemporary structures. Summarization: During the restoration and reuse of monuments and monumen...
