Journal ArticleDOI
Bioreceptivity of building stones: a review.
Ana Z. Miller,Patricia Sanmartín,Lucía Pereira-Pardo,Amélia Dionísio,Cesáreo Sáiz-Jiménez,Maria Filomena Macedo,Beatriz Prieto +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a standardized laboratory protocol for evaluating stone bioreceptivity and definition of a stone biOREceptivity index are required to enable creation of a database on the primary bioreCEPTivity of stone materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid quantification of phototrophic microorganisms and their physiological state through their colour
TL;DR: The methodology developed here makes it possible to save time and materials in comparison with traditional microbiological methods, and is a non-destructive method which can be used directly on site and in site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of the potential bioreceptivity of granitic rocks from their intrinsic properties
Beatriz Prieto,Benita Silva +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a rapid and easy test was developed for investigating the potential bioreceptivity of granite to phototrophic organisms, cyanobacteria, by determining the following four intrinsic properties: abrasion pH, bulk density, open porosity and capillary water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Addition of cement to lime-based mortars: Effect on pore structure and vapor transport
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of mortars consisting of air-hardening lime with a progressively increasing cement content, as well as a mortar containing hydraulic lime were used to investigate the pore structure of lime-based mortars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring the color of granite rocks: A proposed procedure
TL;DR: In this article, the minimum area and the number of measurements required to characterize the color of granite rocks were determined using a spectrophotometer and tristimulus colorimeter.
