JOINING FRAGMENTED MARBLE ARCHITRAVES USING TITANIUM BARS: A NUMERICAL ANALYSIS

Kourkoulis, Stavros K. / Ganniari-Papageorgiou, Evi / Mentzini, Marilena

The problem of joining together fractured marble architraves is studied numerically in the present paper using the Finite Element Method. The study was motivated by the needs of the conservation project in progress of the Parthenon Temple on the Acropolis of Athens, where pioneering work is carried out during the last thirty years concerning, among others, the restoration of fragmented architraves using titanium bars. The numerical model constructed simulates the bending test of a centrally fractured prismatic marble architrave of rectangular cross section. The influence of the loading mode simulating the actual loading conditions is explored and the distribution of the stress and strain components is investigated in an effort to detect the points most prone to fail.
