Abstract


The Palacio de Toral de los Guzmanes is a building whose walls are mostly made of "tapia" (rammed earth). One of the basic objectives of the restoration which began in 1985 is acquiring new information in order to extend the knowledge of this type of masonry, commonly used in Spanish monumental architecture. After a few general considerations the author establishes an abbreviated decalogue of construction and strength behaviour of the "tapia". The example used as an illustration is that of the description and analysis for three solutions to specific problems which appeared during the restoration works.
