Both early and recent work on modal expressions has been focused on the way their root and non-root interpretations correlate with the properties of the predicates with which they combine (see eg Bertinetto, 1979; Condoravdi, 2001; Werner, 2006). Likewise, the temporal and the modal interpretations of the future have also been studied in correlation with the eventive versus stative distinction....

     Salt crystallization is one of the most powerful weathering agents that may cause a rapid change in the mechanical properties of stones, and thus limit their durability. Consequently, determining the mechanical properties of stones due to salt crystallization is important for natural building stones used in marine environmental and mild climatic conditions, which expose excessive salt crys...
