Along with the increasing demand on exterior wall cladding as a protective cover for the interior elements and an indicator for modernity and architectural innovation, comes the need to develop new cladding materials that can replace the old ones and overcome their setbacks. This paper discusses the possibility of replacing stone by textured concrete as a cladding material in order to overcome the main challenges faced stone cladding by comparing them together. The comparison was made based on the main requirements of the cladding materials namely: economic, environmental, social, functional and structural aspects.
Textured concrete, stone, cladding.
