Procedure7.1 Determine the mass of the test sample to the accuracyspecified in 5.1 and spread it in a thin layer on the bottom of thecontainer, cover it with distilled water, and soak it for

19、a periodof 24 6 4 h. Roll and squeeze particles individually betweenthe thumb and forefinger to attempt to break the particle intosmaller sizes. Do not use the fingernails to break up particles,or press particles against a hard surface or each other. Classifyany particles that can be broken with the

20、 fingers into finesremovable by wet sieving as clay lumps or friable particles.After all discernible clay lumps and friable particles have beenbroken, separate the detritus from the remainder of the sampleby wet sieving over the sieve prescribed in the following table:Size of Sieve for RemovingSize

23、, allow to cool, and determine the mass to thenearest 0.1 % of the mass of the test sample as defined in 6.3or 6.4.8. Calculation8.1 Calculate the percent of clay lumps and friable particlesin fine aggregate or individual sizes of coarse aggregate asfollows:P 5 M 2 R!/M# 3100 (1)where:P = percent of

24、 clay lumps and friable particles,M = mass of test sample (for fine aggregate the mass of theportion coarser than the 1.18-mm (No. 16) sieve asdescribed in 6.3), andR = mass of particles retained on designated sieve asdetermined in accordance with 7.2.8.2 For coarse aggregates, the percent of clay l

25、umps andfriable particles shall be an average based on the percent ofclay lumps and friable particles in each sieve size fractionweighted in accordance with the grading of the original samplebefore separation or, preferably, the average grading of thesupply represented by the sample. Should the aggr

26、egate con-tain less than 5 % of any of the sizes specified in 7.1, that sizeshall not be tested but, for the purpose of calculating theweighted average, shall be considered to contain the samepercent of clay lumps and friable particles as the next larger ornext smaller size, whichever is present.9.

27、Precision and Bias9.1 Precision3The estimate of the precision of this testmethod is provisional and is based on samples of one fineaggregate that was tested by ten different operators at ninedifferent laboratories. For that sample, the average “percent ofclay lumps and friable particles” in the aggr

28、egate was 1.2 %,and the standard deviation was 0.6 %. Based on this standarddeviation, the acceptable range of two test results on samplesfrom the same aggregate sent to different laboratories is 1.7 %.9.2 BiasSince there is no acceptable reference material fordetermining the bias for the procedure
