Features of Andesites Used in Buildings Around İncesu (Seydişehir) Region

Abstract

Natural stones have taken place in all areas of our lives from ancient times to the present. In the early days of humanity, they were used in daily life such as cutting, drilling, and agricultural tools, and their usage area increased in parallel with the development of humanity. Especially, natural stones, which hold an important place in the field of construction, appear as monumental structures that express power, authority, and longevity from defense structures to grand magnificent structures. As well as being durable, natural stones were also used for their decorative features such as color and texture properties. Dusty rose-colored natural stones (andesite) which are used locally as building materials in İncesu (Seydişehir) and its surroundings were examined in terms of geological, geochemical, petrographical, physico-mechanical, and weathering indices. Geologically, in the chemical analysis results of the samples taken from the natural stones (andesite) observed in the district of İncesu and its surroundings, all of the rocks are located "andesite" area in the total alkaline versus silica (TAS) diagram, "sub alkaline" area in the alkaline-sub alkaline separation diagram and "calc-alkaline" area in the AFM diagram. The physico-mechanical test results of andesites, which are resistant to weathering under atmospheric conditions for many years and known for their high strength, were also evaluated according to standards. It was found that the abrasion resistance and bending strength (flexural strength) remained within the limit values. According to the weathering indices, it was found to be slightly weathered.
