The International Congress on the Deterioration and Conservation of Stone is a quadrennial event that brings together the world-wide community of researchers, managers and practitioners concerned with the conservation of cultural stone structures and objects.
The submitted articles can cover all inorganic building materials (Stones, mortars, artificial stones, bricks, earth…). We strongly encourage linking scientific achievement to practice. Contributions under the following 6 themes and sub-themes are suggested: 1) Characterization and investigation methods; 2) Resilient & Sustainable conservation; 3) Holistic approach of built heritage conservation; 4) Digitalization and AI in stone conservation; 5) Climate change and risk assessment; 6) Alteration mechanisms and conservation treatments.
