Overview:  
 
Abstract: This thesis discusses and compares premanufactured and hand made repair mortars, which are made for crack repairs of red “Mainsandstein” (from Dietenhan).
The analysis of each repair mortar led to physical-mechanical characteristic values, which did get compared to the data of “Mainsandstein” Together with the scientific results and by interviewing professionals such as conservators and masons, the requirements for the repair mortars did get identified (formulated).
Different investigation methods are described, which allow a translation for the application and the requirement of the tested repair mortar to similar sandstone –“Buntsandsteine”. The results of the analysed repair mortars are presented and discussed with its advantages and disadvantages.
