Stone Conservation for the Refurbishment of Buildings Project funded in the 7. Framework Programme of the European Commission Grant Agreement No: NMP-SE-2008-213651

STONECORE deals with the development and application of nano-materials for the conservation of natural and artificial stone. Materials shall be developed that are compatible with components originally used during the construction of buildings and monuments. A second main objective of STONECORE is the advancement of non-destructive assessment methods for stone. |
| |
| In detail, STONECORE combines the following principle subjects: |
| |
 |
Development of methods of synthesis for nano-materials that are compatible with natural and artificial stone, |
 |
 |
Development and evaluation of technologies suitable for the application of nano-materials for the strengthening of stone and mortar and the removal of microbiological growth, |
 |
Development of new non-destructive assessment methods for stone based on ultrasonics as well as geophysical measurements |
 |
Treatment of different stones with the materials developed and the characterisation of any effects obtained. |
|
 |
| The project will progress from investigations in the laboratory and small scale applications on trial areas, to the use of the materials that have been developed on selected objects in the field. |
