Which increased risk occurred if differing thermal expansion coefficients existed between the marble substrate and pietra dura inlay in the Taj Mahal?

💡 Explanation

Delamination risk increased because differential thermal expansion created shear stresses at the material interface due to varying coefficients; therefore, adherence failed by decohesion, rather than the marble or the pietra crumbling due to other environmental impacts.
