Scope
1.1 This Standard specifies a method for testing the
serviceability of decking boards exposed outdoors, out of
contact with the ground, in a decking module closely
resembling poorly ventilated decking in residential use.
Since the experimental design is virtually identical, it may
conveniently be run at the same time as AWPA E25-08
Standard Field Test for Evaluation of Wood Preservatives to
be Used Above-Ground (UC3B) Decking Method. This test
method is intended to be a commodity test.
1.2 The test method is suitable for evaluating the effects of,
surface profiling, different wood preservatives, and additives
such as dimensional stabilization and UV protectant
treatments on commercially treated species. In addition, the
test method may also be used to compare different grain
orientations and newly introduced wood species.
