This procedure is a method for evaluating the carbonation resistance of concrete using an accelerated carbonation test. After a period of preconditioning, the test is carried out under controlled exposure conditions using an increased level of carbon dioxide to which, the vertical sides of the specimen are exposed. The test results are not designated to set performance requirements but to compare the carbonationresistance of different concretes of the same strength class, which are used in the same environmental conditions.
