Abstract

The stock ofexternal wall tiling is enormous. However, falling-off of the wall tiling due to degradation poses a considerable danger to pedestrians. Therefore, the new method for refurbishment of external walls with stone-like decorative fabric that can prevent falling-off of wall tiling is developed for long-term maintenance and preservation. This stone-like decorative fabric is tightly installed with adhesive polymer cement mortar and mechanical anchor pins. Furthermore, it contributes to the reduction of the construction process. This paper presents the outline of the new method, evaluation of the performance and the application to exterior wall refurbishment work.
