- Abstract:
- Thermal decay may be one of the causes of monzogranite deterioration. In this work, we study the chemical, mineralogical and petrographic characteristics and the physical properties of the monzogranite of Elba Island as a building material, to better understand the main effects of the degradation caused by artificial thermal cycles on this rock.
