== Abstract ==

The current state of two 16th century masonry churches were studied after being
damaged during the 2017 earthquake in Mexico. The two complexes being analyzed are part
of the World Heritage Site “Ruta de los Conventos”: the Convento de San Guillermo
Totolapan, in the state of Morelos south-east of Mexico City, and the Huaquechula Monastery,
in the state of Puebla south of Mexico City. These buildings are representative of the
architectural model adopted by the first missionaries who evangelized the indigenous
populations in the 16th century. The churches were constructed circa 1535 and 1548,
respectively. The history and cultural significance for each project is researched in
coordination with the stakeholders, along with the contrasting structural systems and any
known previous interventions, historic and contemporary.
The damage inflicted to the two churches due to the most recent earthquake (2017) is critically
analyzed, specifically focusing on inherent defects of the existing materials, the variation in
construction methodologies and the impact of contemporary interventions such as the use of
reinforced concrete and structural steel following previous earthquakes. Potential repair
methodologies are discussed in order to mitigate future damage to the structures. Discussions
include the importance of using compatible materials along with appropriate repair procedures
and the need for ongoing maintenance of these important heritage structures.
