United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standard

17、s, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.15.3 Other ConstituentsAir-entraining agents, coloringpigments, integral water repellents, finely ground silica, andother constituents, shall be previously established as suitablefor use

18、in concrete masonry and shall conform to applicableASTM standards or shall be shown by test or experience not tobe detrimental to the durability of the concrete masonry unitsor any material customarily used in masonry construction.6. Physical Requirements6.1 At the time of delivery to the purchaser,

19、 units shallconform to the strength requirements prescribed in Table 2. Allunits shall be sound and free of cracks or other defects thatinterfere with the proper placement of the units or significantlyimpair the strength or permanence of the construction. Minorcracks incidental to the usual method o

20、f manufacture or minorchipping resulting from customary methods of handling inshipment and delivery are not grounds for rejection.NOTE 3The purchaser is the public body or authority, association,corporation, partnership, or individual entering into a contract or agree-ment to purchase or install, or

21、 both, concrete masonry units. The time ofdelivery to the purchaser is FOB plant when the purchaser or purchasersagent transports the concrete masonry units, or at the time unloaded at theworksite if the manufacturer or manufacturers agent transports theconcrete masonry units.6.2 At the time of deli

22、very to the purchaser, the total lineardrying shrinkage of units shall not exceed 0.065%.6.3 Solid UnitsThe net cross-sectional area of solid units,in every plane parallel to the bearing surface, shall be not lessthan 75 % of the gross cross-sectional area measured in thesame plane.7. Dimensions and

23、 Permissible Variations7.1 Minimum face shell thickness shall be not less than12in. (13 mm).7.2 No overall dimension (width, height, and length) shalldiffer by more than 618 in. (3.2 mm) from the specifiedstandard dimensions.NOTE 4Standard dimensions of units are the manufacturers desig-nated dimens

24、ions. Nominal dimensions of modular size units are equal tothe standard dimensions plus the thickness of one mortar joint. Nominaldimensions of nonmodular size units usually exceed the standard dimen-sions by18 to14 in. (3.2 to 6.4 mm).8. Finish and Appearance8.1 No more than5%oftheunits in the ship

25、ment shallexhibit one or more of the characteristics described in 8.1.1through 8.1.4 and 8.2.8.1.1 Units with dimensions not meeting the requirementsof 7.2.8.1.2 Units with finished face(s) containing chips larger than1 in. (25.4 mm) in any direction.8.1.3 Units with finished face(s) containing crac

26、ks widerthan 0.02 in. (0.5 mm) and longer than 25 % of the nominalheight of the unit.8.1.4 Units that are broken.NOTE 5Units specified to have particular features or finishes, such assplit-face and tumbled units, should not be evaluated for conformance ofsuch features to the requirements of 8.1.2.8.

27、2 Where units are to be used in exposed wall construction,the face or faces that are to be exposed shall not show chips orcracks, except as permitted in 8.1.2 and 8.1.3, or otherimperfections when viewed from a distance of not less than 20ft (6.1 m) under diffused lighting.8.3 The color and texture

28、of the units shall be specified bythe purchaser. The finished surfaces that will be exposed inplace shall conform to an approved sample consisting of notless than four units, representing the range of texture and colorpermitted.NOTE 6Concrete masonry units are produced using a wide variety ofnatural

29、 aggregates and other materials. As such, slight variations inherentfrom natural materials should be expected. Since specifying units andapproving samples can take place several months prior to production ofactual units for a project, slight variations in appearance from theapproved sample are to be

30、 expected.8.4 Nonloadbearing concrete masonry units shall be clearlymarked in a manner to preclude their use as load bearing units.Labeling is not necessary if units also comply with allrequirements of Specification C90.9. Methods of Sampling and Testing9.1 The purchaser or authorized representative

31、 shall beaccorded proper facilities to inspect and sample the units at theplace of manufacture from the lots ready for delivery.9.2 Compressive strength, absorption, density, and dimen-sional tolerances shall be based on tests of concrete masonryunits of any configuration or dimensions made with the

32、 samematerials, concrete mix design, manufacturing process, andcuring method, conducted in accordance with Test MethodsC140 and not more than 12 months prior to delivery.9.3 Total linear drying shrinkage shall be based on tests ofconcrete masonry units made with the same materials, concretemix desig

33、n, manufacturing process, and curing method, con-ducted in accordance with Test Method C426 and not morethan 24 months prior to delivery.10. Compliance10.1 If a sample fails to conform to the specifiedrequirements, the manufacturer shall be permitted to removeunits from the shipment. A new sample sh

If the results of the tests show that the un
