“…Comparing the incidence of anomalies in VLF with that of wood floorings, it is found that, in wood floorings, scratches, or wrinkles (above 80% of floorings) are also the most common detected anomaly [33]. In wood floorings, scratches are even more predominant, as the next frequent anomaly is only detected in about 25% of inspected floorings.…”

“…This cause represents the use of improper wheel material, which easily leaves a mark in VLF, or moving of furniture without adequate protections. In wood floorings [33], the circulation on floorings is also identified in all scratch's anomalies.…”

“…Such frequencies were expected, as the use of inappropriate cleansers or spilling of aggressive substances, such as antiseptic drugs, causes blemishes, changes in brightness, or indelible stains. Comparing these relationships with those in wood floorings, staining and color changes were mainly related with an inadequate finishing, natural ageing, and poor maintenance works [33]. So, only natural ageing was identified in both types of flooring, as the expected wear signs in floorings can only normally be eliminated with large investment (major repair works or replacement).…”

A statistical survey on the pathology and rehabilitation of linoleum and vinyl floorings is presented. It is based on the visual inspection of 101 vinyl and linoleum floorings, in six health infrastructures in Lisbon, Portugal, which enabled the validation of the classification/nomenclature previously proposed, as well as the corresponding correlation matrices. It was also possible to identify the most common types of anomalies, their probable causes, the most adequate in situ diagnosis methods, and the most useful repair techniques. Anomalies, diagnosis methods, and repair techniques files were also validated. The obtained data enabled anomalies to be related to their causes, in situ diagnosis methods, and respective repair techniques e.g., a high number of scratches/wear were detected associated with dragging of equipment. The conclusions drawn intend to raise awareness among the industry actors and minimize the development of anomalies and their causes at the design and application stages. Furthermore, the main sensitive issues of the cladding system during its service life were revealed, highlighting the importance of a correct maintenance plan to minimize the surface’s susceptibility to various degradation mechanisms.

“…Propusieron un sistema de apoyo a la inspección y diagnóstico que caracterizaba la situación patológica de cada elemento inspeccionado, facilitando la sistematización de las inspecciones incluidas en las actuaciones de mantenimiento periódico y evitando así futuros defectos. Este enfoque, centrándolo en los revestimientos de suelos de madera, ha sido recientemente aplicado por el departamento de ingeniería civil de la Universidad de Lisboa, en una muestra de 35 edificios (19), y también, al estudio de la variabilidad de pruebas in situ destinadas a conocer el envejecimiento natural de revestimientos de paredes enlucidas (20).…”

Moreno-Cansado) RESUMENLos revestimientos interiores son de las unidades constructivas que más interrelación tienen con los usuarios, dada su cercanía de uso con éstos. Esta investigación se centra en la determinación de los daños más usuales en los alicatados, enfoscados, guarnecidos, falsos techos y solados interiores, obtenidos en el conjunto de España a partir de los requerimientos presentados por los usuarios. Se determinan también cuáles son los orígenes que motivan estas deficiencias, así como la presencia que tienen las mismas en función del formato constructivo en donde tienen lugar (viviendas en bloque o unifamiliares). A partir de los datos manejados se presentan los grupos de daños más característicos, así como un procedimiento para determinar la probabilidad ante futuros requerimientos, en función de una matriz ponderada que clasifica la correspondencia entre los 4 descriptores manejados. El conocimiento de los resultados obtenidos ayudará a los técnicos a minimizar los daños en estas unidades constructivas.Palabras clave: Patologías de construcción, enfoscados y guarnecidos, solados y alicatados, deficiencias. ABSTRACTInternal coatings are among those construction units which experience the most interaction with users, given their proximity to them. This research focuses on determining the most usual damages in tiling, cement renders, plasters, suspended ceilings and indoor flooring from all of Spain, as per the requirements indicated by the users. In addition, the causes of these deficiencies are also found, as well as their percentage according to the type of construction they are found in (flats or houses). From the data used, the most typical groups of damages are indicated, as well as a procedure to determine the probability of future damages, according to a weighted matrix classifying the correspondence between 4 descriptors. The knowledge of these results will assist technicians to minimise damages in these types of construction units.
