Which risk increases for pietra dura inlay when significant diurnal temperature variation affects the Taj Mahal?

💡 Explanation

Delamination risk increases because differential thermal expansion occurs between the marble and the inlaid stones. The linear thermal expansion coefficients differ; therefore, internal stresses cause loss of adhesion rather than uniform change.
