Scientific study of physical and chemical properties of elemental carving for woodwork preservation

This study aims to investigate the physical and chem-ical properties of the woodcarvings that characterize their struc-tural indicator to resist the deterioration. The main objectives of this study are to identify the visual characteristics of the wood components and to examine the physical and chem...
