Abstract
The presence of pores, cracks and micro‐cracksin compact rocks is one of the main features that govern the processes of decay of stone materials and, although the marbles are characterized by a modest porosity, there is a clear correlation between the presence and movement of fluids of the water, and the phenomena of alteration. Through the study of porosity it is possible to better understand the phenomena of alteration and degradation in order to obtain useful information in the field of modern building, but also for the protection and recovery of historical and artistic heritage goods. The purpose of the research is to characterize the physical and mechanical properties of four different varieties of marble, exposed to external degradation agents for about ten years and then compared with the original properties measured on slabs of the same marble protected from atmospheric agents. The study was conducted through the characterization of physical and mechanical parameters directly correlated with the degree of alteration of the materials: water absorption by contact sponge(UNI 11432), water absorption at atmospheric pressure(EN 13755), flexural strength (EN 12372)and bowing(EN 16306 par. 8.2). In addition, to verifying the porosity of the materials studied, two different image analysis techniques were compared: ImageJ with Jpore and AGA.The results obtained from the two techniques found a better analysis of the degradation with Image J than the AGA that cannot be representative of the tendency to decay or bowing of the marble.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
