Materials Science for Architectural Conservation

Objectives or Summary:

Materials science offers an explanation of the different behavior of building materials. The scientific concepts underlying the conservation of porous building materials - such as stone, adobe, brick, and various binders - are presented. Visual models, instead of formulas, are used to explain the mechanisms of deterioration and the theory behind preservation treatments.
