• Resumen

  • The systematic data collection and quantitative analysis of 225 half-timbered walls found in the province of Burgos made it possible to reach conclusions on the frequency and scope of 27 phenomena of material degradation and 11 types of structural lesions. Almost the entirety of the sample analysed presents some degree of material degradation, mostly slight atmospheric lesions such as surface atmospheric erosion and chromatic alteration and dehydration of the timber. A greater vulnerability to structural lesions, particularly structural deformation, has been observed in this type of wall. The results presented in this text form the basis for understanding the conservation and restoration needs of half-timbered walls, given the indispensability of knowledge of the most common degradation systems.
