Abstract
This work presents the set of preliminary studies for the conservation and restoration of the fountain in plaza Weyler (Santa Cruz de Tenerife). The working methodology is interdisciplinary and aims to identify and characterize the construction materials, along with the products generated in the alteration processes, to determine the mechanisms and causes of deterioration. Two marbles of different origins belonging to two construction phases of the aforementioned square, a traditional mortar of limestone and sand as mortar, calcareous concretions resulting from filtrations and biological colonization by microalgae have been identified. A method of non-invasive analysis has been used to determine the extent of certain pathologies. In this way, it will be possible to define a specific proposal of action to deal with the pathologies affecting this cultural asset.
期刊介绍：
Conservar Património is a journal, published three times a year, that intends to create a space for the diffusion of conservator-restorers’ studies and activities. However, at a time when Conservation-Restoration pretends to develop further through collaboration with other areas of knowledge, such as History of Art, Archaeology, Museum Studies, Chemistry, Physics, Biology and other related disciplines from the fields of the natural and social sciences, the journal also receives contributions from any other provenance as long as directed towards the multiple dimensions of the works that integrate our Cultural Heritage. Theoretical issues on the conservation activity may also be submitted.
