Download or read book Review of Durability Testing of Building Stone with Annotated Bibliography written by DD. Carr and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The search for a method to test the durability of building stone has been in practice for centuries. There is no universally accepted method of testing all building stone. The differences in mineralogical, chemical, and physical properties of rocks are too great to have one test evaluate all. The standard ASTM physical tests for building stone contribute, in their own way, to the analysis of durability.

Download or read book Comparison of Field Testing with Laboratory Testing of the Durability of Stone written by Bernhard Wonneberger and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samples of three granites (Texas Pink, Mount Airy White, Academy Black), one marble (Carrara) and Indiana Limestone have been exposed to 11 years of natural weathering on the roof of a building in the Chicago area. Twice a year, the samples are visually reviewed. In addition, the changes in physical properties have been monitored using non-destructive test procedures for determination of the dynamic (sonic) modulus of elasticity. The sonic modulus measurements were recorded using procedures as outlined in ASTM C 215, "Standard Test Method for Fundamental Transverse, Longitudinal, and Torsional Frequencies of Concrete Specimens." The sonic modulus measurements were compared to measurements of similar stone samples that were exposed to laboratory accelerated weathering testing. The exposed and protected surfaces have recently been examined petrographically, and the changes due to the natural weathering recorded. Based on this additional testing and evaluation, conclusions can be drawn which further indicate the use of accelerated weathering. Testing can effectively evaluate the long-term changes in the mechanical and physical properties of dimension stone when exposed to natural weathering.

Download or read book Predicting the Durability of Building Stone Using Accelerated Weathering written by B. Wonneberger and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of weathering of building stone is becoming widely recognized, and there is a need in modern thin stone design (less than 2 inches) to be able to estimate their durability. Stone deterioration processes include a number of agents, including salts, air pollution, freeze-thaw and biodeterioration. While the weathering properties of dimension stone can be judged by the examination of buildings in which it has been used, this method cannot estimate the durability of a different stone, a stone from a different part of the same quarry, a stone from a new quarry, or if the stone is to be used under different environmental conditions. Data is presented in this paper to show a correlation can be determined between natural and accelerated weathering of building stones. Real timeline information has been obtained by comparing accelerated weathering test data with data that is obtained from naturally weathered stone specimens. An estimate can be made to assess the life expectancy of a building stone subjected to natural weathering by using the accelerated weathering test procedure described in this paper. Based on our studies, 12 to 16 freeze-thaw cycles of the test procedure can be considered approximately equal to one year of natural weathering in the Chicago area.
