Abstract

Damage to natural stone is omnipresent. Here are pictures of typical damage features to natural stone, where salts are involved. For a detailed list and description of the various types of deterioration, see ICOMOS-ISCS publication [Verges-Belmin.etal:2008]Title: Illustrated glossary on stone deterioration patterns
