Ever increasing interest in the preservation of our rapidly decaying monuments invited a series of symposia, during three GSA annual meetings, dealing with subjects closely related with stone. This volume is composed of selected papers presented at these symposia. Part 1, Stone Properties and Testing, deals with properties of stone applied essentially to durability of aggregate stone. Part 2, Stone Weathering, samples this broad subject. And Part 3, Stone Preservation, introduces many difficulties and complexities of stone treatment.
