Diekamp lab - Devel­op­ment of build­ing mate­ri­als for use in her­itage con­ser­va­tion (NHL mod­u­lar sys­tem)

In collaboration with local restorers and building material manufacturers, a modular system based on natural hydraulic lime (NHL) has been developed for the restoration of natural stone masonry. A basic recipe can be adapted for all major applications (masonry mortar, pointing mortar, sacrificial render / poultice plaster, render) by slight modification of the recipe. Research into the scientific basis of the NHL system is ongoing.

In collaboration with restorers and the building materials industry: development of a modular system for plaster and masonry mortar based on natural hydraulic lime. Application on prominent buildings in Tyrol (top: lime burning of naturally hydraulic lime at fort Finstermünz in the upper Inn Valley, center: test areas under extreme conditions, fortress Ehrenberg in Reutte, bottom left: plaster in the base area, Köpflehaus in Höfen, bottom right: sacrificial render and final plaster Trautsonhaus in Innsbruck's old town).
