This volume completes the Trattato di Restauro Architettonico, edited by G. Carbonara, Utet. It deals with the complex subject of materials (technical properties, production, working processes, classification), from the viewpoint of architectural conservation, as well as deterioration and decay. It also examines issues surrounding restoration methods (conservation technology, diagnostic methods), and provides essential information on the compatibility of materials. An interesting introductory chapter classifies all Italian stone materials with notes on where they are extracted, and their past and current use.

SECTION A: Pre-Industrial Materials (natural and artificial materials, binders, pigments).

SECTION B: Post-Industrial Materials (concretes, resins, paints, paintings, enamels, bio-detergents)

SECTION C: Decay and restoration of materials
