The laboratory testing of potential bowing and expansion of marble

Björn Schouenborg

The use of thin marble and limestone panels for facade cladding has increased substantially during the last five decades. The durability of such thin slabs (often only 30 mm thick) has been assumed ...

Experimental study on the variation in porosity of marble as a function of temperature

Geological Society London Special Publications (2002)

Katarina Malaga-Starzec Jan Erik Lindqvist Björn Schouenborg

Abstract The current condition of many building claddings and historical monuments clearly reveals that they are not immune to weathering action due to daily or seasonal temperature changes. In this study, porosity changes by variation in temperature have been investigated for two marble types: one calcitic and one pure dolomitic. The samples were exposed to ascending temperatures from 40 to 200°C. The results indicate that intergranular decohesion starts between 40 and 50°C. Some significant differences in temperature response for these two marble types could be distinguished. The temperature range 40–60°C is easily reached on building surfaces in most European countries during the summer months. A better understanding of the effect that temperature has on the porosity of marble could be used to develop a methodology for assessing suitable conditioning of marble before testing as well as to suggest appropriate impregnation and/or surface treatments of buildings and outdoor sculptures.

An allochthonous cover in northern Vestranden, Western Gneiss Region, central Norway

Geologiska Foereningan i Stockholm Foerhandlingar (1986)

Björn Schouenborg

Abstract Abstract The present studies in the northwesternmost part of the Western Gneiss Region, Norway, have demonstrated the existence of previously unknown metasediments and metavolcanics in the Caledonian nappe units. Tectonic and metamorphic breaks as well as lithological differences separate these units from the underlying migmatized gneissic granites and granodiorites. Structural concordance between basement and cover developed as a result of high strain induced by nappe translation. An intense interfolding of basement and cover units postdated the thrusting event. Metamorphic and lithological contrasts in the area are generally preserved. Garnet-biotite thermometry data suggest that the temperatures during post-thrusting metamorphism did not exceed 600°C. Later movements were cataclastic in character and often occurred parallel to older thrust planes.
