of Mansourah, such as toe erosion, crown erosion, surface erosion, crevices, vertical and stepped cracks, as well as collapsed or ruined sections, are characteristic of structures generally constructed of RE. A geometric survey was conducted on-site across the different areas to be analyzed, taking into account, as much as possible, all openings and geometric irregularities of architectural origin, or those resulting from deterioration. The following Figs. 3-8 illustrate the geometric shapes and dimensions of the structures selected for our study.

Figure 3: Geometry of Structure 01 (Two towers, T1 T2, with an intermediate wall, M1).

Figure 4: Geometry of Structure 02 (Northeast tower).

Figure 5: Geometry of Structure 03 (Six towers, T1-T6, linked by intermediate walls, M1-M5).
