Abrasion resistance tests were performed at 28 and 91 days after moist curing<br />

of the slab specimens. Abrasion tests were conducted on the specimens using<br />

ASTM C944 test methods. <strong>The</strong> ASTM C944 test produced a depth of abrasion<br />

of about one mm (0.04”) after about 60 minutes of exposure to the abrasive<br />

force. This method was too slow. An accelerated method was developed as an<br />

alternative. Details of the method can be obtained from reference 27.<br />
