Have there been any studies on HOW LONG Borobudur Temple will able to SURVIVE since the natural factors around the Borobudur so close to the Merapi and the potential for earthquakes?

From the Head of Borobudur Temple Conservation Center, Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si. There is no data that can be referenced, the Data that is able to explain until when Borobudur Temple will survived. At the time of the restoration of the temple (during the year 1973-1983) indeed already built the reinforcement structure planted inside the temple, and in the yard of the temple. However, the strengthening of the structure can not be used to determine how many years the Borobudur will survive, because there is no definite basis for calculation. Unlike another case, when you build structures like houses, roads, bridges, and so on, that always can be determined on how long the building can survive because there is a definite calculation.

However, with the monitoring and routine maintenance, expected the mega structure of Borobudur Temple will still be able to survive for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, if only there is no devastating natural disasters, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions for example, which affect the structural stability of the building of the temple. In addition, in the absence of extreme climate change that could affect the fragility of the rock temple, which in turn will also directly affect the structure of Candi Borobudur the temple.
