Verification of Mineral Particles Deposition in Wooden Construction Elements by Thermal Analysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

Wooden construction elements are exposed to many degradation factors during their use that result in structural changes. Structural changes, such as mineral particle depositions, also occur in contact with mineral solutions, which is typical for wooden elements that are partly or completely infiltrated by mine water. In this article, a mine timbering obtained from historical mining galleries in the area of Zlaté Hory is examined to verify specimen authenticity based on mineralization quantification by thermal analysis.
