Which risk dramatically increased with complex pietra dura inlay during Mughal construction booms?

💡 Explanation

Stresses accumulate with temperature fluctuations; because different inlay materials expand/contract at different rates, differential thermal expansion generates tensile and shear stresses, therefore, damage risk increases rather than direct collapse, seismic or degradation alone.
