Prediction of service life of building materials and components
Conclusions Data on the service life of building materials and components are essential to the cost-effective use of materials. For this reason, it is important that methods be available for reliably predicting service life. In the current state-of-the-art, test methods are most often useful for comparing the relative ‘durabilities’ of building materials as opposed to predicting quantitatively the service life. The need to advance the state-of-the-art of service life prediction of building materials has stimulated considerable interest in national and international activities in recent years. The technical barriers to meeting the need for improved predictions are numerous and formidable. Therefore, it is not practicable for one laboratory or even one country to pursue, on its own, the long-term, complex and costly research needed to address the barriers. But the barriers offer the opportunity for continued and increased international interactions and the opportunity for performing challenging research on building materials and their degradation processes. In this way, the needs can be met.
