Resumen
During the reconstruction work carried out in 2011 on the tower of the castle in Oropesa del Mar, Castellón, partially ruined in 2008, the collapsed masonry wall was found to contain two rammed earth structures built by the Moors in different periods. Despite their serious level of deterioration, we were able to determine many of the characteristics of these walls and the formwork support systems, once again demonstrating the mastery of the Moors in rammed earth techniques. This discovery called for a modification to the initial project proposal in order to expose the composition of the tower and highlight the lime strata constructions. A series of solutions were adapted, which are described in this presentation. © 2012 Taylor & Francis Group, London.
