<br/><br/> A comparative study of the microstructure of both new and in-use aged blast-furnace slag cement coir reinforced composite was performed. Aged samples came from internal and external walls of a 12-year-old house, built in Sa~o Paulo. The panels of the house were produced using 1:1.5:0.504 (binder: sand: water, by mass)mortar reinforced with 2
