To simulate pre-existing defects, an acetate film was strategically inserted into one of the mortar-ceramic interfaces, creating controlled cracks of varying sizes. The specimens were subjected to low-amplitude cyclic loading, inducing simultaneous tensile and shear stresses within the system. The vibrational responses of the samples were recorded, and their frequency-domain amplitudes were analyzed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ceramic tile detachment remains a significant issue in contemporary construction, despite advancements in technology and updates to regulatory standards. The majority of these failures occur at the adhesive mortar-ceramic tile interface due to the combined effects of tensile and shear stresses. While this phenomenon is well-documented, experimental studies assessing the adhesion integrity of fa\u00e7ade cladding systems are limited. This study aims to evaluate the adhesion performance of adhesive mortars using a non-destructive vibrational analysis technique.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>The results enabled the characterization of the dynamic behavior of the specimens, identification of frequency regions corresponding to individual components, and formulation of diagnostic criteria for damage detection. Analysis of the resonance spectra also made it possible to identify a peak that can be related to the behavior of the mortar-substrate interface. Additionally, the elastic and dissipated energy metrics were calculated to quantify the system\u2019s mechanical behavior. The study further investigated the impact of crack size, curing time and adhesive mortar type on the overall structural integrity.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>This work aims to evaluate the adhesion performance of adhesive mortars using a non-destructive vibrational analysis technique. Resonance frequency measurements have also been used in research to analyze the propagation paths of cracks in metallic samples from aircraft engines. However, despite the widespread use of non-destructive techniques based on resonance frequencies for damage assessment, their application in the field of coating systems seems to be virtually unexplored. Therefore, this research attempts to address this gap by investigating the bond integrity of adhesive mortar joints, focusing on the analysis of the material\u2019s resonance frequencies and their associated peak parameters.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/ijsi-11-2024-0196","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,13]],"date-time":"2025-02-13T10:25:00Z","timestamp":1739442300000},"page":"452-476","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Analysis of adhesive mortar bonding to\u00a0ceramic tiles using resonance frequencies method"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3296-4042","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Janaina Salustio","family":"da Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sandro M.","family":"Torres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Ant\u00f3nio","family":"Azevedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4471-4294","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernando Artur","family":"Nogueira Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1026-4523","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"J.M.P.Q.","family":"Delgado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"key2025041015180908100_ref001","article-title":"Standard Test Method for Determination of the Mode II Interlaminar Fracture Toughness of Unidirectional Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composites","author":"ASTM D7905","year":"2019"},{"key":"key2025041015180908100_ref002","article-title":"Standard Guide for Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy (RUS) for Defect Detection in Both Metallic and Non-metallic Parts","author":"ASTM E2001","year":"2013"},{"key":"key2025041015180908100_ref003","article-title":"Non-destructive Techniques for Detecting the Alkali-Aggregate Reaction in Concrete Prisms","year":"2019"},{"issue":"3","key":"key2025041015180908100_ref004","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"396","DOI":"10.1108\/ijsi-08-2011-0033","article-title":"Crack propagation curves on flexure adhesion tests","volume":"4","year":"2013","journal-title":"International Journal of Structural Integrity"},{"key":"key2025041015180908100_ref005","article-title":"Study of the fatigue behavior of mortars and its relationship with pathologies and damage to facades","year":"2012"},{"issue":"8","key":"key2025041015180908100_ref006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"816","DOI":"10.1080\/00218464.2010.498718","article-title":"Influence of layer thickness on cohesive properties of Na epoxy-based adhesive-an experimental study","volume":"86","year":"2010","journal-title":"The Journal of Adhesion"},{"issue":"2","key":"key2025041015180908100_ref007","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"445","DOI":"10.1007\/s11771-021-4614-0","article-title":"Experimental investigation on fatigue of blade specimen subjected to resonance and effect of a damping hard coating treatment","volume":"28","year":"2021","journal-title":"Journal of Central South University"},{"key":"key2025041015180908100_ref008","article-title":"Amortecimento: classifica\u00e7\u00e3o e m\u00e9todos de determina\u00e7\u00e3o.
