So, in order to set-up more efficient forecasts of their engineering properties behaviour in a given environment this study is an essential initial complementary step to compare and integrate in near future studies all the advantages and disadvantages of the application of these classic and new methods, based respectively upon visual examination of the samples' exteriors and on microtomographic image models of the samples' interiors and surfaces, to these geologic materials.
The decay of the stones of these heritage sites constitutes a problem of conservation and/or restoration that worries government officials and the civil society alike.
These solutions can have a very high chemical and/or physical/mechanical decay potential to damage those materials, greatly influencing their spatial microstructure (texture) and other chemical, physical and engineering properties like permeability, strength and durability.
