Meaning of Durability and Durability Prediction
The concept of durability is not well-defined. The term durability is often used to imply the possession of qualities associated with long-life. In some standards for building components, it is nonquantitative and implies that design requirements are likely to be exceeded for the design service or some other specified period. An ASTM recommended practice, E632-78, for the prediction of service life is outlined. The application of the recommended practice to service life prediction is illustrated by an example from the literature and by an example from work being planned.
