FAILURE OF ANISOTROPIC MARBLE: THE PROCONNESIUM MARMOR OF ROMAN COLUMNS IN BRINDISI
The failure process of the roman columns located in Brindisi (Italy), where the ancient “Via Appia” ends, is outlined. In situ and in laboratory investigations have been performed to evaluate the choice of the restoration intervention starting from the foliation-fissuring relationship as long-term marble properties modification and the intrinsic characteristics of building material. The statistical-structural analysis of the fracturing rate has stated the systems of the neo-formation fractures and their distribution into the five components of the pedestal (crepidoma, plinth, dado, cornice, orlo of the base and torus). The geometry of the fractured elements and the marble decay as well as the mechanical characteristics of the marble blocks have been reconstructed through a non-destructive analysis of the pedestal and of the shaft. The inclusively collected data have allowed elaborating block-diagrams worked out in a semiautomatic form. The investigation has supplied the criteria both to evaluate the risk condition, advancing the shaft’s remounting phase of the column, and to employ in an operative plan for the choice of the restoration intervention.
