← HistoryWhich consequence results when seasonal ground movement stresses a Mughal garden's pietra dura inlay?
A)Deterioration halts hydraulic functionality
B)Water channels experience increased flow
C)Inlay cohesion reduces friction
D)Differential Strain causes patterned cracking✓
💡 Explanation
Differential Strain on the inlaid designs induces cracking damage because the substrate shifts unevenly with temperature/moisture, therefore only cracking matches the outcome, rather than the hydraulic behavior, as the geometry is altered within acceptable bounds.
