Study of Preparation and Properties of Historic Mortars
Majerová, Jana ; Lang,, Karel (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
The diploma thesis is concerned with study of preparation and properties of historic mortars. In theoretical part, there is summarized the historic progress of mortars and their material composition. The experimental part is focused on proposition of mortar mixes. The diploma thesis referring to actual research on Institute of Technology of Building Materials and Components, FCE VUT in Brno. The base mixe of historical mortar came from this research. In experiment, there is the base mixe of historical mortar modified with gypsum. In the first phase of the experimental part the basic technological and aplication properties are assessed. The second phase of the experimental part is focused on the course of hydration of the binder in different environments and subseqeunt determination of the phase composition by X-ray diffraction analysis. The aim of the thesis is to determine the optimal amount of gypsum and to optimize the recipe of historical mortar.

Development of Historical Universal Mortar with Blended Binder
Lišovský, Martin ; Wagner,, Štěpán (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with development and properties of historic mortars, evolves and optimizes recipe of historicizing universal mortar with mixture binder, which have been evolves in previous phase. Binder system is based on lime hydrate and metakaolin and is modified with fast-pacing gypsum. Thesis follow up technological properties of mixtures of historicizing mortars and modifies them for current construction industry. It also follows effect of modification to phase composition of binder system and eventually rise of AFt phases.

Characterisation of historic materials - the case of Tao-I-Kisra Palace (Iraq)
Slížková, Zuzana ; Pérez-Estébanez, Marta ; Viani, Alberto
The aim of this study is the characterization of bricks from the Taq-I-Kisra palace in southern Iraq (ancient Mesopotamian area). The palace is located in the plain of the Tigri river (see Fig. 1). The construction probably started around year 540 AD even if there is some uncertainty about its age. The arched hall on the facade is about 37 m high and is the largest vault ever constructed at the time (see Fig. 2). Originally conceived as an imperial palace, was later used as a mosque by the Arabs before being gradually abandoned. The historical constructions in this area are what remains of the capital of the empire. In accordance with geological data, in the area where the temple was built (and in general in the Mesopotamian area), the most available construction material was mud. Mud bricks were made mainly of clays. In ancient times there is evidence of mixes with sand, water, mud, and organic material, husks or straw.
