This study characterized mortars from a masonry fortification in Charleston, South Carolina (USA), harbor where construction was during the period 1839-1860. This location for analysis was interesting because of the sea water impingement on the structure. The study was included as part of an overall structural assessment with restoration as an objective. The mortars were found to be ...
