The purpose of this paper is the study of damage detected in the belfry of the convent of “Nuestra Señora de la Consolación”, Alcalá de Henares, as well as the materials analysis to establish both the current state of the structure as the nature and extent of the deterioration of the original materials. For a good detection of defects in the structure were the application of a methodology of previous studies in historical buildings, in which were used, among other techniques, the element Thermographic Analysis, to then proceed to the experimental determination of the emissivities of the different inspected materials. The use of supplementary techniques of analysis as porosimetry of mercury, x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy of scanning and thermogravimetry, as well as mechanical characterization of materials, has made it possible to delve into the characteristics of the Union mortar and employed; evaluate comprehensively current degradation status and facilitating the rehabilitation.
