Non-destructive methods applied for in situ mechanical diagnosis: Florentine historical buildings in Pietra Serena

Abstract Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) is a key indicator of the mechanical properties of a rock, particularly in the diagnostic and restoration phases when stones are employed as construction material. In historical buildings, it is important to determine UCS values without utilizing tests th...
