ABSTRACT
In any case, this second option can have several consequences. In the first place, it means that the original shape of the building must be restored, although this is not strictly necessary in most cases from a structural and construction point of view, but responds rather to a desire to restore it aesthetically. In the second place, it is necessary to know the original height of the crown of the building, which is not always readily apparent. In the third place, it inevitably involves a clear contrast between the original rammed earth surface, whose patina is a token of its age, and the new surface, with its smooth, even appearance and the signs of the new formwork.
