It stood in Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem for nearly 800 years until it was burned down completely in 1969. In 1993, King Hussein of Jordan gave instructions to initiate the process of reconstructing the Minbar based on old photos of the original one and small wooden pieces that remained after the fire. The reconstruction job was commissioned in 2002 and finished in 2006 as a replica of the original one. This paper discusses the lessons learned from the reconstruction process through the analysis of geometric principles and features of the design process and construction of the Minbar, towards the rekindling of this artistic heritage. The Minbar geometric patterns are constructed of many interlocking pieces of wood, each carefully carved to fit together like a three-dimensional puzzle. The novel contribution of this study is in the relationship between the geometric construction of the patterns and the Interlock (ta’sheeq) construction methodology. Which will hopefully provide a deeper understanding of the structure of the Minbar, allowing architects and craftsmen to achieve improved control over their new design’s compositions and structure.","PeriodicalId":45840,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Conservation Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44246381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the action of urine on granites. Accelerated alteration tests were performed on Grey Itaquera, Pink Itupeva, and Black Piracaia granites – stones from the São Paulo State, Brazil, which were widely used in the historical built heritage of the São Paulo state. The test was performed with 30 cycles of partial immersion of nine samples in artificial urine solution and the sanitising of the specimens, totalling 60 consecutive days of testing. In the first 24 hours, the samples were partially immersed in urine; in the following 24 hours, the samples were sanitised in three different groups: A) without washing; B) washing with natural water; C) washing with a 5:1 solution of natural water with bleach. The alterations induced in the specimens were evaluated by spectrophotometry, P-wave velocity, and scanning electron microscopy. The main results obtained were chromatic alterations and crystallisation of salts on the three types of granite. The study concluded that urine is a substance that can cause moderate alterations in the aesthetics and structure of granitic stones.","PeriodicalId":45840,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Conservation Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49405580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
