Abstract
BRANZ, as an independent testing lab to the building industry, has developed an Embedded Fastener Test for the measurement of metallic corrosion rates in treated timbers. In this work, the performance of this embedded fastener methodology has been compared with the AWPA standard E12-94 test, which uses the corrosion analysis of metallic coupons sandwiched between two timber blocks. The testing focused on the CCA alternatives and timber preservative treatments.
