16、gh testing of prisms obtained from that construction when sampled in accordance with Practice C1532. Decisions made inpreparing such field-removed prisms for testing, determining the net area, and interpreting the results of compression tests requireprofessional judgment.4.3 If this test method is u
17、sed as a guideline for performing research to determine the effects of various prism construction ortest parameters on the compressive strength of masonry, deviations from this test method shall be reported. Such research prismsshall not be used to verify compliance with a specified compressive stre
18、ngth of masonry.NOTE 1The testing laboratory performing this test method should be evaluated in accordance with Practice C1093.4.3.1 Appendix X2 includes guidance information for the researcher on aspects of materials, construction, and analysis.5. Masonry Prism Construction5.1 Construct prisms of u
19、nits representative of those used in the construction. If units have flutes or ribs that project 12 in. (12.5mm) or more from the surface of the unit, remove those flutes or ribs by saw cutting flush with the surface of the unit at the baseof the flute or rib. When prisms are used for field quality
20、control or assurance, record the location in the structure that correspondsto the set of prisms constructed.NOTE 2Building codes or project specifications may require a set of prisms for a given square footage of construction. Recording the location of thestructure that corresponds to a set of prism
21、s allows the test results to be attributed to a particular portion of the structure.5.2 Construct a set of prisms for each combination of materials and each test age at which the compressive strength of masonryis to be determined.5.3 Build each prism in an opened, moisture-tight bag large enough to
22、enclose and seal the completed prism. Construct prismson a flat, level base. Construct prisms in a location where they will remain undisturbed until transported for testing.5.4 Construct prisms as shown in Fig. 1 with units laid in stack bond in stretcher position. Orient units in the prism as in th
23、ecorresponding construction. At the time of prism construction, the surfaces of the units shall be free of moisture. Where thecorresponding construction is of multi-wythe masonry having wythes composed of different units or mortar, build prismsrepresentative of each different wythe and test separate
24、ly.5.5 Build prisms with full-size or reduced length units. Any required saw cutting shall be performed on units prior to prismconstruction. The moisture content(s) of units used to construct prisms shall be representative of those used in construction. Prismscomposed of units that contain closed ce
25、lls shall have at least one complete cell with one full-width cross web on either end (seeFig. 2). Prisms composed of units without closed cells shall have as symmetrical a cross section as possible. The minimum lengthof prisms shall be 4 in. (100 mm).NOTE 3When using larger masonry units, experienc
26、e has shown that reducing the length of these units prior to prism construction makes theirhandling and transportation easier. Thus, these reduced length unit prisms are less likely to be damaged and are more likely to be properly capped andtested. Also, the smaller prism will be less likely to be a
27、ffected by plate bending effects during testing, as described in Note 9, and will therefore providea more accurate assessment of the strength of the materials in the masonry prism. For these reasons, the use of reduced length prisms is encouraged.FIG. 1 Masonry Prism ConstructionC1314 1425.6 Build m
28、asonry prisms with full mortar beds (mortar all webs and face shells of hollow units). Use mortar representative ofthat used in the corresponding construction. Use mortar joint thickness and a method of positioning and aligning units, that arerepresentative of the corresponding construction. Use mor
29、tar joints that are cut flush. For prisms to be grouted, remove mortar“fins” that protrude into the grout space.5.7 Build prisms a minimum of two units high with a height-to-thickness ratio, hp/tp , between 1.3 and 5.0.5.8 Immediately following the construction of the prism, seal the moisture-tight
30、bag around the prism.5.9 Grouted Prisms.5.9.1 When prisms are fabricated for field quality control or assurance, build prisms at the same time as the correspondingconstruction, and grout prisms when the corresponding construction is being grouted. When prisms are used for other purposes,grout prisms
31、 not less than 4 h nor more than 48 h following the construction of the prisms.NOTE 4Testing of prisms may be part of a projects field quality control or assurance program. These prisms are intended to be representative of aconstructed masonry element such as a wall, column, pilaster, or beam. They
32、are built as companions to the masonry element at a jobsite where themasonry element is site-constructed, or within a factory or shop where the element is shop-built. Prisms may also be fabricated in a laboratory for researchpurposes.5.9.2 Where the corresponding construction is to be solidly groute
33、d, solidly grout the prisms. Use grout representative of thatused in the corresponding construction. Before placing grout, remove mortar droppings from the grout space. Use groutconsolidation and reconsolidation procedures representative of those used in the construction. Place additional grout into
34、 the prismsas necessary after each consolidation. Screed off excess and finish the grout so that it is level with the top of the prism and incontact with the units at the perimeter of the grout space. Grouted prisms shall contain no reinforcement.5.9.3 Where the corresponding construction is to be p
35、artially grouted, construct two sets of prisms; grout one set solid asdescribed in 5.9.2 and leave the other set ungrouted.5.9.4 Where open-end units or prisms containing grout between similar wythes are to be grouted, use similar masonry units asforms to confine the grout during placement. Brace fo
36、rms to prevent displacement during grouting. Grout as described in 5.9.2.5.9.5 Immediately following the grouting operation, reseal the moisture-tight bag around the prism.5.10 Keep all prisms from freezing. Do not disturb or move prisms for the first 48 h after construction and grouting. Keep prism
37、sin the moisture-tight bags until 48 h prior to testing.5.11 Store an indicating maximum-minimum thermometer with the sample and record the maximum and minimumtemperatures experienced during the initial 48-h period.6. Obtaining and Transporting Masonry Prisms6.1 For field-removed masonry specimens,
38、select and remove specimens in accordance with Practice C1532.6.2 Prior to transporting constructed prisms and field-removed masonry specimens, strap or clamp each prism or specimen toprevent damage during handling and transportation. Secure prisms and specimens to prevent jarring, bouncing, or tipp
39、ing overduring transporting.6.3 Transport prisms and masonry specimens in accordance with Practice C1532.FIG. 2 Reduction of Hollow Units Prior to Prism ConstructionC1314 1436.4 For field-removed masonry specimens, after the specimens have been transported to the laboratory, obtain prisms from thema
40、sonry specimens using procedures outlined in Practice C1587.7. Curing7.1 After the initial 48 h of curing for constructed prisms, maintain the bagged prisms in an area with a temperature of 75 615F (24 6 8C). 75615F (2468C). Two days prior to testing, remove the moisture-tight bags and continue stor
41、ing at atemperature of 75 6 15F (24 6 8C) 75615F (2468C) and a relative humidity less than 80 %.7.2 For prisms obtained from field-removed masonry, store within the laboratory at a temperature of 75615F (2468C) anda relative humidity less than 80 % for at least two days prior to testing.7.3 Prisms s
42、hall not be oven-dried or otherwise exposed to temperatures exceeding storage temperature requirements at any timeprior to testing.7.4 Visible moisture shall not be present on the surface of the prisms at the time of testing. Extend storage time as needed toensure dry surface conditions of the prism
43、s at the time of testing.7.5 Test prisms at an age of 28 days or at the designated test ages. Test a set of prisms at each age. Prism age shall be determinedfrom the time of laying units for ungrouted prisms, and from the time of grouting for grouted prisms.8. Measurements and Determination of Net A
44、rea8.1 Measuring PrismsAs shown in Fig. 3, measure the length and width at the edges of the top and bottom faces of the prismsto the nearest 0.05 in. (1 mm). Determine the length and width by averaging the four measurements of each dimension. Measurethe height of the prism at the center of each face
45、 to the nearest 0.05 in. (1 mm). Determine the height by averaging the fourmeasurements.8.1.1 For prisms obtained from field-removed masonry specimens, perform additional measurements as needed to document thecondition and dimensions of the specimen.NOTE 5Prisms obtained from field-removed masonry s
46、pecimens will have many different sizes, shapes, and configurations. These variations are aresult of differing bonding arrangements, mortaring or joining practices, presence of reinforcement and other accessories in conjunction with the masonryin service, and of techniques used to remove the specime
47、ns from wall assemblies. These variations may create non-uniform prism dimensions along itslength or in its cross-section.As such, additional measurements are often required to adequately document the condition of the prism and to communicatethat condition to readers of the test report.8.2 Net Cross
48、-Sectional Area:8.2.1 Constructed PrismsTake the net cross-sectional area of ungrouted prisms as the net cross-sectional area of masonryunits, determined by measurement or from a representative sample of additional units tested in accordance withTest Methods C140for concrete masonry and with Test Me
49、thods C67 for clay masonry. If cut units are used for prism construction, determine the netcross-sectional area from additional units cut in a similar manner. Determine net cross-sectional area of fully grouted prisms bymultiplying the length and width of the prism (see 8.1).NOTE 6Net area determined by Test Methods C140 for hollow concrete units is usually slightly different from the minimum net cross-sectional areabecause unit face shells and webs are typically tapered.8.2.1.1 Consider clay masonry units whose net cross-sectional area is at least
