Citations in the corpus

• Characteristics of brick used as aggregate in historic brick-lime mortars and plasters (2006, background): “Formation of these products, in the form of interlocking crystals, improves the strength of the mortars and plasters which, in turn, justifies their use in the construction of many historic buildings since ancient times [7].”
• Forced and natural carbonation of lime-based mortars with and without additives: Mineralogical and textural changes (2005, background): “The estimated binder/aggregate ratio per volume was 1:3, because this is considered to be the best for restoration work [35].”
• MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF NATURAL HYDRAULIC LIME-BASED MORTARS (2004, background): “An extensive damage to the ancient masonry due to the use of cement-based mortars in the restoration works has been proved [14-16].”
• Masonry repair lime-based mortars: factors affecting the mechanical behavior (2003, methodology): “The binder:aggregate ratios selected for this study vary around 1:3 by volume, as this is the most cited ratio in literature [3,13-17].”
