Experience of application of quali-metric expertise to assess the state of carbonate rocks and patterns of their destruction in urban environment

Article preview

Qualimetric examination was applied for the first time to assess the current state of stone monuments and analyze the weathering patterns of carbonate rocks in the urban environment. An original multilevel model was used for this purpose. The condition of monuments was assessed on 200 marble and limestone monuments of the museum necropolis in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. The intensity of various forms of weathering of carbonate rocks was quantitatively evaluated. The connection between physical, chemical and biological forms of carbonate rock weathering, as well as between the type of rock and the peculiarities of its destruction is shown. The obtained results are used for planning restoration and anti-damage works.

Comprehensive monitoring of stone monuments in the urban environment

Article preview

The methodology of monitoring of natural stone monuments in the urban environment has been developed. The field inspection of 100 marble monuments was carried out and the typical description of visible forms of their destruction was offered. The methodology of mapping the forms of destruction of natural stone in the urban environment is worked out. Qualimetric expertise is applied for the first time for the assessment of the integral condition of the sculptural monuments made of stone. An electronic cadastre on the condition of the marble monuments of the museum necropolises of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra was created.
