Ferrocement is a construction material which provided to have superior qualities of crack control, impact resistance, and toughness, largely due to the geometrical properties, i.e., uniform dispersion and high specific surface of reinforcement within the material. However, while extensive literature exists on the deterioration mechanisms and maintenance of reinforced concrete structures, little attention has been given to the durability of ferrocement. Given the lack of knowledge of maintenance and repair strategies on ferrocement structures, along with the paucity of literature on deterioration mechanisms taking place in this material, further studies are necessary to define guidelines for diagnosis, structural assessment (including the new need of seismic assessment), structural rehabilitation and remedial actions for durability of ferrocement spatial structural architectures.
