Stone decay its causes and controls
Smith, Bernard
Stone decay its causes and controls - Shaftesbury Donhead 2004 - iv, 306p. ill. 25cm.
Introduction: the need for interdisciplinary thinking in stone decay and conservation studies Quantification of the decay rates of cleaned and soiled building sandstones Durability and rock properties The use of image analysis for quantitative monitoring of stone alteration Mechanisms of attack on limestone by NO2 and SO2. Weathering of sandstone sculptures on Charles Bridge, Prague: influence of previous restoration Experimental weathering of rhyolite tuff building stones and the effect of an organic polymer conserving agent Chemical composition of precipitation in Krakow: its role in salt weathering of stone building materials Interpreting the spatial complexity of decay features on a sandstone wall: St Matthew's Church, Belfast Arkose 'Brownstone' tombstone weathering in Northeastern USA Weathering of Portuguesemegaliths - evidence for rapid adjustment to new environmental conditions Influence of anthropogenic factors on weathering of the Carpathian flysch sandstones Observations on stepkarren formed on limestone, gypsum and halite terrains The role of mechanical and biotic processes in solution flute development Weathering scales, landscapes and change: some thoughts on links
Selected papers from the Stone Weathering and Atmospheric Pollution NETwork conference, which formed part of the Proceedings of Weathering 2000, an international symposium held in Belfast 26-30 June 2000. Provides insights into the nature of stone decay processes, the factors that control them and conservation issues.
