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, eac

United States13.2.2.1 DiscussionThe chemical shrinkage leads to emp-tying of the internal pores (see self-desiccation) that causes theform

17、ation of menisci in the partially water-filled pores. Themenisci in turn give rise to internal tensile stresses that causebulk shrinkage. While autogenous shrinkage is due to thechemical shrinkage, the magnitude of autogenous shrinkage isless than the chemical shrinkage after setting occurs, because

18、the aggregate particles and the hydrated cement paste networkrestrain the shrinkage. The restraint may in turn lead tocracking.3.2.3 chemical shrinkage, nthe reduction in volume ofcementitious paste that occurs during hydration because thehydration products occupy less volume than the volumeoccupied

Materials and Manufacture5.1 Two general types of lightweight aggregate are coveredby this specification, as follows

35、:5.1.1 Aggregates produced by expanding, pelletizing, orsintering products such as blast-furnace slag, clay, diatomite,fly ash, shale, or slate, and5.1.2 Aggregate prepared by processing natural materials,such as pumice, scoria, and tuff.5.2 The aggregate shall be composed predominately oflightweigh

36、t-cellular and granular inorganic materials.6. Chemical Requirements6.1 Organic ImpuritiesTest Method C40. Lightweightaggregate shall not produce a color darker than the standardcolor solution, unless it is demonstrated that when the aggre-gate is tested for the effect of organic impurities on stren

37、gth ofmortar, the relative strength at 7 days, determined in accor-dance with Test Method C87, is not less than 95 %.6.2 StainingTest Method C641. Lightweight aggregateshall produce a stain index of less than 60. Lightweightaggregate producing a stain index of 60 or higher shall besubject to rejecti

The loss onignition of lightweight aggregates shall not exceed 5 %.NOTE 4Some aggregate may contain carbonat

39、es or water of hydrationthat contribute to loss on ignition but may not affect the quality of theproduct. Therefore, when evaluating an aggregate, consideration should begiven to the material characteristics that cause the ignition loss.7. Physical Properties7.1 Clay Lumps and Friable ParticlesTest

41、 general, a volume of lightweight aggregate (fine or acombination of coarse and fine) for internal curing will replace an equalvolume of normal weight aggregate in an existing conventional concretemixture. The grading of the lightweight aggregate can be chosen to closelymatch the existing grading of

42、 the normal weight aggregates, or to fill in agap in the existing normal weight aggregate grading, such as using amid-range size lightweight aggregate to enhance the gradation of agap-graded mixture (1).37.2.1 Uniformity of GradingFor continuing shipments offine aggregate from a given source, the fi
