Permissible Variations in Dimensions6.1 Overall dimensions for width, height, and length shall differ by not more than 6 18 in. (3.2 mm) from the specified standarddimens

30、ions.NOTE 2The term “width” refers to the horizontal dimension of the unit measured perpendicular to the face of the wall from the exposed surface ofthe unit to the back of the unit. The term “height” refers to the vertical dimension of the unit as placed in the wall. The term “length” refers to the

31、horizontal dimension of the unit measured parallel to the running length of the wall.6.1.1 Dimensional tolerance requirements for width shall be waived for architectural surfaces.NOTE 3Split-faced surfaces are the most common surfaces used to provide an architectural appearance to segmental retainin

32、g walls. However, othermeans could be used to obtain similar architectural effects like tumbling, grinding, and slumping.7. Finish and Appearance7.1 All units shall be sound and free of cracks or other defects that interfere with the proper placement of the unit or significantlyimpair the strength o

33、r permanence of the construction. Minor cracks incidental to the usual method of manufacture or minorchipping resulting from customary methods of handling in shipmentNo more than 5 % of the units in the shipment shall exhibitone or more of the characteristics described in 7.1.1 through 7.1.4 and 7.2

35、 of the nominal heightof the unit.7.1.4 Units that are broken.NOTE 4Units specified to have particular features or finishes, such as split-face and tumbled units, should not be evaluated for conformance of suchfeatures to the requirements of 7.1.2.7.2 Where units are to be used in exposed wall const

36、ruction, the face or faces that are to be exposed shall not show chips orcracks, not otherwise permitted, except as permitted in 7.1.2 and 7.1.3, or other imperfections when viewed from a distance of notless than 20 ft (6.1 m) under diffused lighting.7.2.1 Five percent of a shipment containing chips

37、 not larger than 1 in. (25.4 mm) in any dimension, or cracks not wider than0.02 in. (0.5 mm) and not longer than 25 % of the nominal height of the unit is permitted.7.3 The color and texture of units shall be specified by the purchaser. The finished surface that will be exposed in place shallconform

38、 to an approved sample consisting of not less than four units, representing the range of texture and color permitted.NOTE 5Segmental retaining wall units are produced using a wide variety of natural aggregates and other materials.As such, slight variations inherentfrom natural materials should be ex

39、pected. Since specifying units and approving samples can take place several months prior to production of actual unitsfor a project, slight variations in appearance from the approved sample are to be expected.8. Sampling and Testing8.1 The purchaser or authorized representative shall be accorded pro

40、per facilities to inspect and sample units at the place ofmanufacture from the lots ready for delivery.8.2 Sample and test units for compressive strength, absorption, and dimensional tolerances in accordance with Test MethodsC140.8.3 When required, sample and test five specimens for freeze-thaw dura

41、bility in water in accordance with Test Method C1262.Freeze-thaw durability shall be based on tests of units made with the same materials, concrete mix design, manufacturing process,and curing method, conducted not more than 24 months prior to delivery.9. Compliance9.1 If a sample fails to conform t

42、o the specified requirements, the manufacturer shall be permitted to remove units from theshipment. A new sample shall be selected by the purchaser from remaining units from the shipment with a similar configurationand dimension and tested at the expense of the manufacturer. If the second sample mee

43、ts the specified requirements, the remainingportion of the shipment represented by the sample meets the specified requirements. If the second sample fails to meet the specifiedrequirements, the remaining portion of the shipment represented by the sample fails to meet the specified requirements.NOTE

44、6Unless otherwise specified in the purchase order, the cost of tests is typically borne as follows: (1) if the results of the tests show that theunits do not conform to the requirements of this specification, the cost is typically borne by the seller; (2) if the results of the tests show that the un

45、itsconform to the specification requirements, the cost is typically borne by the purchaser.10.
