State whether the following is true or false.
Accelerated durability tests can fully replace long-term field experience for a new binder.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: B

Correct answer: False

Accelerated tests compress years into weeks by raising temperature or concentration, which can change the mechanism as well as the rate - so a material may pass a test and fail in service, or the reverse. They are essential for screening and for comparison, and they do not substitute for structures that have stood for thirty years.
