| Abstract | In order to assess the resistance of travertine against salt crystallization, 15 travertine samples were selected from Iran’s mines. Petrographic, physical and mechanical properties of the travertine samples were determined, and then salt crystallization test was carried out by using magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) solution up to 60 cycles. Dry weight increment, dry weight loss, Brazilian tensile strength (BTS), point load strength index and P-wave velocity were calculated at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 number of cycles. Two weathering forms (granular disintegration, and alveolaring) were observed in the samples as a result of salt crystallization pressure. Onyx travertine samples were more resistant than travertine samples. It was found out that the deterioration rate at elementary cycles was lower. The results showed that durability of samples has a positive relationship with initial BTS and a negative relationship with initial effective porosity. It was concluded non-destructive tests are good technique for assessment of travertine deterioration in salt crystallization test. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
