History

Which long-term weathering risk accelerates in the pietra dura inlay present on large Mughal-era structures?

A)Differential thermal expansion
B)Uniform corrosion resistance
C)Homogeneous material degradation
D)Integral structural reinforcement

💡 Explanation

Differential thermal expansion degrades pietra dura because varying coefficients cause stress fractures, therefore inlays detach rather than remaining intact, because rates of expansion in stone/inlay differ under changing temperatures.
