Abstract[Bearbeiten]

Estimating the pore filling due to salt crystallization in stones is crucial to determine the potential susceptibility to damage. Considering that salts tend to follow the path of least resistance when crystallizing, the pore space needs to be filled for damage to occur. Only when such a condition is achieved, the growing crystals can exert enough pressure against the pore wall to initiate the damage. However, calculating the pore filling is a tedious task and often overlooked. This paper discusses the results of two methodological approaches to estimate the pore filling in Maastricht stone samples subjected to sodium chloride and sodium sulfate contamination. The investigation is part of an ongoing technical committee developing a laboratory test to assess the durability of porous materials to salt crystallization (RILEM Technical Committee 271-ASC). The first method exploits an image analysis approach using scanning electron microscopyon polished crosssections. The second method follows a theoretical approach based on the salt content data determined by ion chromatography, the molar mass and volume of Na2SO4 (thenardite) and NaCl, the dry bulk density and open porosity of the Maastricht limestone. The deviations observed in the results from the two methods are discussed with respect to the potential methodological issues. Some possible strategies to mitigate such discrepancies are proposed.
