The Use of Marble Veneer in Building Facade in Riyadh: Materials, Adaptability and Construction
The use of marble panels as building cladding in Riyadh has increased in the last two decades. However, many problems have arised due to the severe climatic conditions, atmospheric pollution and inferior design detailing practices. These issues are discussed, focusing on the material properties and availability, local environment and the design detailing techniques. Examples from existing buildings are presented to illustrate the magnitude of these prevailing problems.
