There's an English-language paper at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/329230340_Lime_render_shrinkage_cracks_and_craftsmanship_in_building_restoration which I think may contain some of the material in the thesis, but I haven't received the text of the paper yet.

While searching for the thesis and for anything else about its basic point, I found an excellent summary of limes from Historic Scotland that I think is well worth reading for anybody interested in lime https://www.researchgate.net/publication/264563855_Lime_Mortars_in_Traditional_Buildings_Short_Guide_6

A couple of other more technical things I found for anybody who's still reading are at:

Oh and FWIW the search I used was 'pdf Lime render, shrinkage cracks and craftsmanship in building restoration']]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272870#Comment_272870 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272870#Comment_272870 Sun, 10 Mar 2019 16:01:09 +0000 Julio http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272873#Comment_272873 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272873#Comment_272873 Sun, 10 Mar 2019 19:59:47 +0000 tychwarel http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272875#Comment_272875 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16065&Focus=272875#Comment_272875 Sun, 10 Mar 2019 20:16:26 +0000 tychwarel When I worked at Ty mawr lime I do remember supplying a customer with unslaked lime and aggregate separately to make their own hot mix]]>
