Abstract

U ovom istraživanju ispitivano je 20 uzoraka kamena sa Zagrebačke katedrale. Uzorci su blokova litotamnijskog vapnenca i pješčenjaka koji su pali s katedrale tijekom potresa u Zagrebu 2020. godine. Osnovna svojstva koja su ispitivana su: mineraloški sastav temeljen na rendgenskoj difrakciji, gustoća, prostorna masa, otvorena i ukupna poroznost te apsorpcija vode pri atmosferskom tlaku. Rezultati su pokazali da uzorci litotamnijskog vapnenca i pješčenjaka posjeduju vrijednosti osnovnih svojstava unutar normalnog raspona za pojedinu vrstu stijene.

Abstract (english)

In this study, 20 samples from the Zagreb Cathedral were tested. The samples were taken from lithothamnium limestone and sandstone blocks that fell during the 2020 earthquake in Zagreb. The basic properties that were tested were: mineralogical composition based on X-Ray Diffraction, real and apparent density, open and total porosity, and water absorption at atmospheric pressure. The results showed that the lithotanium limestone and sandstone samples had values of aforementioned properties within the normal range for their respective rock type.
