Title A name given to the resource Pafos Gate, Nicosia Description An account of the resource Pafos (Paphos) Gate (GPS identification: X: 35.17385, Y: 33.35667) is one of the 3 entrances into the old Lefkosia (Nicosia) town, through the Venetian walls. In fact, this is the smallest of the 3 entrances. It was formerly known as ‘Gate of San Domenico’, as it replaced an earlier gate of the Frankish walls called ‘Porta di San Domenico’, and as the ‘Upper Gate’, because of its high altitude. The structure is fairly simple, essentially comprising of an opening in the wall and a barrel vault roof. It is built with local porous calcarenite stone quarried from the Nicosia Formation. This stone is rich in calcite (60-77%, based on X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis of 3 samples collected in-situ). Its porosity and apparent density (EN 1936) range from 25-35% and 1580-1900 kg/m3, respectively. Its comprsesive strength (EN 1926) lies in the region 2.5-7.5 MPa. The aforementioned tests for the characterization of the monument's stone were carried out in 2022, in the framework of a combined laboratory and in situ investigation that was conducted to determine the physico-mechanical properties of the building materials of the Pafos Gate.

Title A name given to the resource The Pedieos Post Office, Nicosia Description An account of the resource The Pedieos Post Office in Nicosia was one of the first post office buildings constructed in Cyprus. Its construction, according to the State Archive, was completed in 1964 and it is operating normally since then, without interruption. The building is a single-storey structure that covers an area of 140 m2. It is located about 300 m from the Pedieos river, in an area which is characterized by a multitude of important public buildings. Tests performed in-situ with a Rebound Hammer, as per EN 12504–2, to estimate the strength of various concrete members, resulted in an average concrete compressive strength of 22.4 MPa. The aforementioned tests were carried out in 2019, in the framework of an Independent Graduate Study (CON 510) of the interdisciplinary and interdepartmental MSc program "Conservation and Restoration of Historic Buildings and Sites" of the University of Cyprus. Testing was carried out by staff of the Building Materials and LEDRA Laboratories of the University of Cyprus and by a civil engineering student (Marios Georgiou) of the graduate program.

It is one of the oldest mosques in the town, dating back to the Byzantine period. The mosque was originally a Byzantine Orthodox Church, as is confirmed by the wall paintings in the building. In the 12th or 13th century it became the Catholic Church of the Holy Cross, before being eventually turned into a mosque after the Ottoman occupation in 1571. In fact, the minaret is built on the foundations of the original bell tower. The vast majority of the stone blocks comprising the monument are calcarenites belonging to the Nicosia Geological Formation. Their main properties are summarized below: <ul> <li>Apparent Density (EN 1936): 1600-1620 kg/m3</li> <li>Open Porosity (EN 1936): 35-38%</li> <li>Compressive Strength (based on in-situ Schmidt hammer measurements): 4-8 MPa </li> </ul> Lime-based, lime-gypsum and gypsum-lime mortars, along with pure gypsum mortars/plasters have also been identified on the monument, following X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) bulk analysis of 12 samples collected in-situ. The aforementioned tests for the characterization of the monument's stone and mortars/plasters were carried out in 2023, in the framework of a combined laboratory and in situ investigation that was conducted to determine the physico-mechanical and mineralogical characteristics of the building materials of Tuzla Mosque.

Title A name given to the resource Windmill, Limnia Description An account of the resource The windmill in Limnia/ Mormenekşe, is located at the north outskirts of the village, opposite the Cemal Balses Stadium (GPS identification: X: 35.206433, Y: 33.861008). It is a typical hollow cylindrical tower structure, built in local calcareous stone (calcarenites and limestones). The main properties of the calcarenites are summarized below: <ul> <li>Apparent Density (EN 1936): 1710-1850 kg/m3</li> <li>Open Porosity (EN 1936): 29-36%</li> <li>Compressive Strength (EN 1926): 4.5-10.0 MPa</li> </ul> The limestones possess a much denser structure and hence exhibit higher compressive strengths (>20 MPa). The aforementioned tests for the characterization of the monument's stones were carried out in 2018, in the framework of a combined laboratory and in situ investigation that was conducted to determine the physico-mechanical and mineralogical characteristics of the building materials of the traditional windmill located at Limnia/Mormenekşe.
