History

Which risk increased for inlaid marble panels within Mughal gardens water features during winter freezes?

A)Pietra dura spalling
B)Efflorescence formation
C)Algae biofilm growth
D)Oxidation discoloration

💡 Explanation

Pietra dura spalling increased because cyclical temperature drops facilitated freeze-thaw weathering; ice expansion within pores generates stress, leading to material fragmentation rather than surface oxidation discoloration as metals weren't always inlaid.
