Abstract

This article focuses on the verification of the effect of selected grouting agents on historic
brick masonry with different degrees of weathering using different techniques of grouting
application. The effectiveness of grouting was verified by changes in the masonry strength.
Experimental research also verified the effectiveness of the penetration of grouting agents as
bonding primers on the surface of selected materials often found in historic buildings.
