Materials6.1 Graded Standard SandThe sand used for making testspecimens shall be natural silica sand conforming to therequirements for graded standard sand in Specification C 778.6.2 Reagent Sodium Hydroxide Solution (20 %):6.2.1 Prepare fresh daily using boiled distilled water andre

17、agent grade sodium hydroxide (NaOH).6.2.2 Dissolve 200 g of sodium hydroxide in 1 L of distilledwater and cool to room temperature. WarningAll work withthis highly caustic solution should be completed with the use ofgloves, apron, and face mask.NOTE 3One litre will provide enough solution for eight

18、three-cubebatches. More or less solution in these proportions should be madedepending on the number of batches to be mixed during the day.7.

20、of0.45 by mass.7.3 CuringImmediately upon completion of moldingplace each three-cube mold in a container. Add approximately50 mL of water into the container at the mold base in order toassure 100 % relative humidity during the curing cycle. In thecase where plastic bags are employed, special care sh

21、ould beexercised to avoid tearing the plastic during handling. Place thecontainer and molds in the curing chamber maintained at 55 62C. If water curing is used, rigid containers shall be requiredand the water temperature shall be controlled to the prescribedtemperature and a minimum 5 mL of water sh

22、all cover thecontainers. At the end of 23 614 h remove the molds from thecuring chamber and examine each container for leaks. If morethan 15 mL of water has escaped or more than 5 mL of waterhas entered, discard the specimens and retest. Remove thespecimens from the mold and store in room air until

Nine laboratories participated in the program andtested three slags with varied hydraulic activity. Duplicate testswere performed on different days. Revisions to the p

26、recisionstatements shall be made as more comprehensive data becomeavailable.11.1.1 The precision statements are applicable when a testresult is the average of compressive strengths of three cubesmolded from a single batch of mortar and tested at the sameage.11.1.2 The multilaboratory coefficient of

27、variation has beenfound to be 8.1 % (Note 4). Therefore, results of properlyconducted tests of single batches by two different laboratoriesshould not differ by more than 22.9 % of their average (Note4).11.1.3 The single-laboratory coefficient of variation hasbeen found to be 4.6 % (Note 4). Therefor

28、e, results of twoproperly conducted tests of single batches of mortar made withthe same materials either on the same day or within the sameweek should not differ from each other by more than 13.0 % oftheir average (Note 4).NOTE 4These numbers represent respectively the (Is) and (d2s) limitsas descri
