Currently, the main use of marble due to its characteristics is more specific to the interior of the building and for use in the floor, which is very popular in the Iranian market. Khoy marble is one of these choices that is used for flooring. Marble is weaker in strength than granite and harder than travertine.Scratches may occur on the surface of the marble and this should be taken into account when determining the place of use. Also, this stone is vulnerable to acid, despite its reliability against moisture, if exposed to this stone for a long time, it will undergo changes and erosion. Due to these cases, it is not recommended to use it in areas and spaces that are permanently exposed to moisture and atmospheric factors, except by observing special maintenance considerations and the desired physical conditions of the stone used. One of the important points is to protect the back of the stone against moisture and also to remove contaminants from the surface of the marble, which should be considered.
