1、Designation: C1761/C1761M 12Standard Specification forLightweight Aggregate for Internal Curing of Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1761/C1761M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year
2、of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers lightweight aggregate intendedto provide water for internal curing of concrete. It includ
3、es testmethods for determining the absorption and desorption prop-erties of lightweight aggregate.NOTE 1Internal curing provides an additional source of water tosustain hydration and substantially reduce the early-age autogenousshrinkage and self-desiccation that can be significant contributors toea
4、rly-age cracking. Appendix X1 provides guidance on calculating thequantity of lightweight aggregate for internal curing.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each
5、system shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformance.Some values have only SI units because the inch-poundequivalents are not used in practice.NOTE 2Sieve size is identified by its standard designation in Speci-fication E11. The alternat
6、ive designation given in parentheses is forinformation only and does not represent a different standard sieve size.1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotesthat provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be consideredas
7、 requirements of the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitation

The loss onignition of lightweight aggregates shall not exceed 5 %.NOTE 4Some aggregate may contain carbonates or water of hydrationthat contribute to loss on ignition
