{"product_id":"9781606069516","title":"Conservation of Granite in Cultural Heritage by Jose Delgado Rodrigues","description":"The  field of stone conservation has long needed a holistic perspective that embraces the needs of  conservation professionals and provides scientific support to enable them to better analyze  preservation issues and implement efficient, long-lasting treatments. Conservation of Granite in Cultural Heritage offers such a perspective by bridging scholarly research on  the available literature related to granite decay and best practices from conservators working in the field  and laboratory.           First offering an overview of granitic rocks and their natural weathering,  this volume then outlines the issues that arise when removing granite from  quarries and incorporating what eventually becomes built heritage. Case studies are presented  alongside guidelines for assessing conservation problems. This book will  serve as a fundamental manual for students, conservation scientists,  conservators, and restorers alike.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56304940417397,"sku":"9781606069516","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781606069516","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
