This paper shows the results of simultaneous thermal analyses (thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and evolved gas analysis) performed on ancient mortars of Arch of Trajan and Roman Theatre (Benevento, southern Italy) in order to determine the content of lime and their hydraulic features. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was also performed to determine the chemical and mineralogical composition. These results constitute a preliminary contribution for a much wider archeometrical investigation that will take into account the provenance of raw materials and the several building phases that involved the monuments during their architectural history.

Abstract
This paper shows the results of simultaneous thermal analyses (thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and evolved gas analysis) performed on ancient mortars of Arch of Trajan and Roman Theatre (Benevento, southern Italy) in order to determine the content of lime and their hydraulic features. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was also performed to determine the chemical and mineralogical composition. These results constitute a preliminary contribution for a much wider archeometrical investigation that will take into account the provenance of raw materials and the several building phases that involved the monuments during their architectural history.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
