Three dowels shall be tested in accordance with the following procedures: 6.2. For one half of its length, each
18、 dowel shall be cast into a 152.4-mm (6-in.) diameter concrete cylinder. Care shall be taken to assure that the dowels are on the centerline axis of the concrete cylinder. The concrete shall be consolidated by vibration. 6.3. Cure the molded specimens in accordance with R 39. Remove the molds from t
19、he specimens after the first 24 h of a 48-h moist-curing period. 6.4. After 48-h curing 2 h, place the concrete cylinder in the testing machine and apply a tensile load parallel to the axis of the dowel. Record the maximum pullout tensile load for the first 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) of movement for each of
20、the three test specimens. The testing machine shall be adjusted to a free-running speed of 0.76 mm/min (0.030 in./min) prior to performing this test and this setting shall be maintained during the test. 6.5. After the first 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) of movement of the dowels, the test specimens will be furt
21、her cured as before for an additional 12 days. Then the test specimens will be placed in a 10 mass percent sodium chloride solution in such a manner as to inundate half of the cross-sectional perimeter of the dowels. The sodium chloride solution will be maintained at this level and 2016 by the Ameri

Duplication is a violation of applicable law.TS-4g T 253-4 AASHTO once a week it will be replaced by a fresh solution. The partially submerged specimens will be subjected to 50 cycles of freezing and thawing consisti
23、ng of freezing in air for 16 h at a temperature of 28.9 1.7C (20 3F) and thawing in air for 8 h at a temperature of 22.8 1.7C (73 3F). 6.6. On completion of the freezethaw cycling, the test specimens will again be placed in the testing machine and the pullout load redetermined by pulling out the dow
24、els an additional 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) at the rate specified in Section 6.4. Again record the maximum tensile load for each of the specimens. 6.7. After the total 25.4-mm (1-in.) movement of the dowel, remove the concrete by breaking it away from the dowel. The dowel and the concretedowel interface wil
25、l be examined for corrosion, tearing, and perforation. 7. CORROSIONABRASION TEST PROCEDURE 7.1. Three dowel bars shall be subjected to corrosionabrasion testing in accordance with the following procedures: 7.2. Abrasion resistance of the dowels will be determined by the use of an abradometer. The ab
26、radometer is operated at 60 to 70 double strokes per minute using a 100-mm (4-in.) long stroke. The abrading block is a 4-in. long mortar block made of portland cement and Ottawa sand (T 106M/T 106) cast to fit over about one third of the perimeter of the test dowel. The test load is the 2500-g mass
27、 of the abrading assembly and block. Each dowel will be tested for a total of 10,000 double strokes (from the starting point to the far end and returning to the starting point is considered one double stroke). 7.3. On completion of the abrading, the dowels will be examined for wear, perforation, and
28、 wrinkling. 7.4. After completion of testing in Section 7.3, determine loss of thickness due to abrasion by ASTM G12. A minimum of five readings shall be taken in both the abraded and unabraded portions of the dowel. The average of the five readings shall determine the respective thickness. 7.5. The
29、 abraded dowels will be placed in a 10 mass percent sodium chloride solution so as to inundate half of the cross-section perimeter of the abraded area and expose the upper half to the atmosphere. The sodium chloride solution will be maintained at this level and once a week it will be replaced by a f
30、resh solution. A sufficient length of the coated dowel will be subjected to the test so that not less than 50 mm (2 in.) of unabraded coating is tested at each end of the abraded area. The partially submerged specimens will be subjected to 50 cycles of freezing and thawing as specified in Section 6.
31、5. 7.6. After the 50 cycles of freezing and thawing, the dowel will be removed and thoroughly examined for corrosion under five-power magnification. 8. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE TEST PROCEDURE 8.1.
