Next-generation infrastructure will have to meet very high expectations in terms of durability, constructability, performance, and life-cycle cost. One way of meeting future expectations will be through improved, high-performance materials, but before new materials can be confidently deployed in the field, a thorough and comprehensive understanding must be developed of their long-term performance in a variety of applications and physical environments. The National Science Foundation (NSF) has launched an initiative to promote the development of innovative short-term laboratory or in-situ tests for making accurate, reliable predictions of the long-term performance of materials and requested that the National Research Council (NRC) conduct a workshop as a reconnaissance-level assessment of models and methods that are being used, or potentially could be used, to determine the long-term performance of infrastructure materials and components. 606 $aMaterials$xDeterioration$vCongresses 606 $aMaterials$xResearch$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aService life (Engineering)$vCongresses 606 $aInfrastructure (Economics)$zUnited States$xPlanning$vCongresses 615 0$aMaterials$xDeterioration 615 0$aMaterials$xResearch 615 0$aService life (Engineering) 615 0$aInfrastructure (Economics)$xPlanning 676 $a620.1/122 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Infrastructure and the Constructed Environment. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960490103321 996 $aResearch agenda for test methods and models to simulate the accelerated aging of infrastructure materials$94474550 997 $aUNINA
