versus a cement-rendered building, or if in actual fact there is a difference. Even if an
earthen-rendered building were to last 200 years compared to 100 years for cement
render, in this instance 100 years would be a lot better than maybe 50 years with earthen
render in the Tasmanian application. Please note that in this example I am not actually
purporting the life expectance of either render system, but simply that sometimes it
might be prudent to use cement render even when it is not the preferred option.
