← HistoryWhich outcome results when a mosaic's tesserae, securing to an aged Byzantine church's ceiling, experience delamination?
A)Increased risk of structural collapse
B)Localized areas of falling debris✓
C)Unimpeded sound wave amplification
D)Enhanced thermal convection currents
💡 Explanation
Falling tesserae constitute a mosaic's degradation precisely which cause spalling. Because adhesive failure occurs despite gravity, this mechanical action causes debris falling, therefore localized areas will fall rather than structural instability, enhanced acoustics, or changed building thermodynamics.
