“…This nding supports that the petrographic analyzes obtained in various studies in the literature provide information about the nature and distribution of the mineralogical phases and elements within the stone sample and the stone interface, which contributes to the identi cation of essential minerals and the behavior responsible for stone degradation. In addition, petrophysical and petrographic properties determine the amount and degree of weathering of stone monuments and support the fact that weathering processes and damage analyzes can be explained by examining these properties in the material [12][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

“…Petrographic analysis is an important tool for the characterization of materials and the study of the effects of deterioration on stone, cementitious materials and ceramics. Petrographic analyzes provide information about the nature and distribution of the mineralogical phases and elements within the stone sample and the stone interface that contribute to the identi cation of essential minerals and the stone degradation process [12]. Petrophysical and petrographic properties determine the amount and degree of weathering of stone monuments, and weathering processes and damage analyzes can be easily explained by examining these properties in the material [13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

In historical stone structures, material deterioration occurs over time due to climate-related reasons. In order to perform the correct interventions to these material deteriorations in the building, original material properties should be determined and restoration applications should be carried out in accordance with these properties. In this study, it was aimed to examine the material properties and problems of the Mor Yakup Church, in the Nusaybin District of Mardin Province, in order to create a laboratory guideline that reveals the material analysis to be used in the restorations to be made at the regional scale of Mardin. Although many studies have been carried out on the structure, up-to-date information and data on the chemical-physical decomposition processes that have occurred on the material over the years are lacking. In order to fill this gap and provide basic information for the proper preservation of the structure, the Mor Yakup Church was analyzed. This structure is important in that it is the first university of education in the world that has survived to the present day. In this study, field studies and laboratory studies were carried out to determine the textural, physical, chemical, mineralogical and mechanical properties of the material used in the building, and the changes it has undergone over the years. The weathering pattern, forms and profiles show that the limestone deteriorates due to the cement-containing mortars used in the building and environmental effects (especially from the exhaust gas effect). It has been determined that nitrate salt has a role in the intense black layering, which can be observed visually, especially on the stone surfaces.

“…Building materials exposed to the atmospheric environment for a long period of time, show signs of deterioration appearing in different forms and modalities also depending on the exposure times and orientation of the surfaces. In later stages, this deterioration causes physical and chemical weathering of building materials, dominated by interaction of chemical and mechanical processes which lead to damage of the microstructure and expansion of micro cracks [1].…”

The aim of the research presented in this paper is to monitor the stability of three protective products applied on samples of Peperino stone, a volcanic tuff widely used for the historic buildings and architectural elements in Viterbo (Italy), using portable devices. More in detail, two different monitoring techniques were applied: VIS-NIR point spectroscopy (400-1000 nm), and colorimetry. In order to characterize the compositional variability and homogeneity of the samples, X-ray micro-fluorescence (micro-XRF) was preliminary used. Data were acquired before and after the application of the different products in order to monitor and detect the efficiency of the considered low-impact products. Peperino samples were also aged in a Solar Box chamber for 1000 h to simulate a solar irradiation and measurements were repeated at the end of the ageing period to evaluate the stability of the protective products.
