16、.2 American Concrete Institute Publications:4211.3 Practice for Selecting Proportions for No-Slump Concrete309 Guide for Concrete Consolidation3. Significance and Use3.1 This practice provides standardized requirements for preparation of materials, mixing concrete, and making and curingconcrete test

17、 specimens under laboratory conditions.3.2 If specimen preparation is controlled as stipulated herein, the specimens may be used to develop information for thefollowing purposes:3.2.1 Mixture proportioning for project concrete,3.2.2 Evaluation of different mixtures and materials,3.2.3 Correlation wi

18、th nondestructive tests, and3.2.4 Providing specimens for research purposes.NOTE 1The concrete test results for concrete specimens made and cured using this practice are widely used. They may be the basis for acceptancetesting for project concrete, research evaluations, and other studies. Careful an

19、d knowledgeable handling of materials, mixing concrete, molding testspecimens, and curing test specimens is necessary. Many laboratories performing this important work are independently inspected or accredited. PracticeC1077 identifies and defines duties, responsibilities, including minimum responsi

20、bilities of the laboratory personnel the duties, responsibilities, andminimum technical qualification requirements for laboratory equipment used. Many laboratories ensure qualified technicians by participating in nationalcertification programs such as the American Concrete Institute Laboratory Techn

21、ician Program or an equivalent program. of laboratory personnel and theminimum requirements for equipment used in testing concrete and concrete aggregates.4. Apparatus4.1 Molds, GeneralMolds for specimens or fastenings thereto in contact with the concrete shall be made of steel, cast iron,or other n

22、onabsorbent material, nonreactive with concrete containing portland or other hydraulic cements. Molds shall conformto the dimensions and tolerances specified in the method for which the specimens are required. Molds shall hold their dimensionsand shape under all conditions of use. Watertightness of

23、molds during use shall be judged by their ability to hold water poured intothem. Test procedures for watertightness are given in the section on Test Methods for Elongation, Absorption, and Watertightnessof Specification C470/C470M. A suitable sealant, such as heavy grease, modeling clay, or microcry

24、stalline wax, shall be usedwhere necessary to prevent leakage through the joints. Positive means shall be provided to hold base plates firmly to the molds.Reusable molds shall be lightly coated with mineral oil or a suitable nonreactive release material before use.4.2 Cylinder Molds:4.2.1 Molds for

25、Casting Specimens Vertically shall conform to the requirements of 4.1 and Specification C470/C470M.4.2.2 Horizontal Molds for Creep Test Cylinders shall conform to the requirements of 4.1 and to the requirements for symmetryand dimensional tolerance in the section on General Requirements except for

26、verticality requirements of SpecificationC470/C470M. The use of horizontal molds is intended only for creep specimens that contain axially embedded strain gages. Moldsfor creep cylinders to be filled while supported in a horizontal position shall have a filling slot parallel to the axis of the mold

27、whichextends the full length to receive the concrete. The width of the slot shall be one half the diameter of the specimen. If necessarythe edges of the slot shall be reinforced to maintain dimensional stability. Unless specimens are to be capped or ground to produceplane ends, the molds shall be pr

28、ovided with two machined metal end plates at least 1 in. 25 mm thick and the working surfacesshall comply with the requirements for planeness and surface roughness given in the section on Capping Plates of Practice C617.Provision shall be made for fixing both end plates firmly to the mold. The insid

29、e surface of each end plate shall be provided withat least three lugs or studs approximately 1 in. 25 mm long, firmly fastened to the plate for embedment in the concrete. One baseplate shall be drilled from the inside at an angle to permit the lead wire from the strain gage to exit the specimen thro

30、ugh the edgeof the plate. Provision shall be made for accurately positioning the strain gage. All necessary holes shall be as small as possibleto minimize disturbance to subsequent strain measurements and shall be sealed to prevent leakage.4.3 Beam and Prism Molds shall be rectangular in shape (unle

31、ss otherwise specified) and of the dimensions required to producethe desired specimen size. The inside surfaces of the molds shall be smooth and free from indentations. The sides, bottom, andends shall be at right angles to each other and shall be straight and true and free of warpage. Maximum varia

32、tion from the nominalcross section shall not exceed 18 in. 3 mm for molds with depth or breadth of 6 in. 150 mm or more, or 116 in. 2 mm formolds of smaller depth or breadth. Except for flexure specimens, molds shall not vary from the nominal length by more than 116in. 2 mm. Flexure molds shall not

33、be shorter than 116 in. 2 mm of the required length, but may exceed it by more than thatamount.4.4 Tamping RodsTwo sizes are specified in ASTM methods. Each shall be a round, straight steel rod with at least the tampingend rounded to a hemispherical tip of the same diameter as the rod. Both ends may

34、 be rounded, if preferred.4.4.1 Larger Rod, 58 in. 16 mm in diameter and approximately 24 in. 600 mm long.4 Available from American Concrete Institute (ACI), P.O. Box 9094, Farmington Hills, MI 48333-9094, http:/www.aci-int.org.C192/C192M 1224.4.2 Smaller Rod, 38 in. 10 mm in diameter and approximat

35、ely 12 in. 300 mm long.4.5 MalletsA mallet with a rubber or rawhide head weighing 1.25 6 0.50 lb 0.6 6 0.20 kg shall be used.4.6 Vibrators:4.6.1 Internal VibratorsThe vibrator frequency shall be at least 7000 vibrations per minute 115 Hz while the vibrator isoperating in the concrete. The diameter o

36、f a round vibrator shall be no more than one fourth the diameter of the cylinder mold orone fourth the width of the beam or prism mold. Other shaped vibrators shall have a perimeter equivalent to the circumferenceof an appropriate round vibrator. The combined length of the vibrator shaft and vibrati

37、ng element shall exceed the depth of thesection being vibrated by at least 3 in. 75 mm.NOTE 2For information on size and frequency of various vibrators and method to periodically check vibrator frequency, see ACI 309.4.6.2 External VibratorsThe two types of external vibrators permitted are either ta

38、ble or plank. The external vibratorfrequency shall be 3600 vibrations per minute 60 Hz or higher.4.6.3 Provisions shall be made for clamping the mold securely to the apparatus for both types of vibrators.NOTE 3Vibratory impulses are frequently imparted to a table or plank vibrator through electromag

39、netic means, or by use of an eccentric weight onthe shaft of an electric motor or on a separate shaft driven by a motor.4.7 Small ToolsTools and items such as shovels, pails, trowels, wood float, blunted trowels, straightedge, feeler gage, scoops,rulers, rubber gloves, and metal mixing bowls shall b

40、e provided.4.8 Slump ApparatusThe apparatus for measurement of slump shall conform to the requirements of Test MethodC143/C143M.4.9 Sampling and Mixing PanThe pan shall be flat-bottom and of heavy-gage metal, watertight, of convenient depth, and ofsufficient capacity to allow easy mixing by shovel o

41、r trowel of the entire batch; or, if mixing is by machine, to receive the entirebatch on discharge of the mixer and allow remixing in the pan by trowel or shovel.4.10 Wet-Sieving EquipmentIf wet-sieving is required, the equipment shall conform to the requirements of Practice C172.4.11 Air Content Ap

42、paratusThe apparatus for measuring air content shall conform to the requirements of either Test MethodsC231 or C173/C173M.4.12 ScalesScales for determining the mass of batches of materials and concrete shall be accurate within 0.3 % of the test loadat any point within the range of use.NOTE 4In gener

43、al the mass of small quantities should not be determined on large capacity scales. In many applications the smallest mass determinedon a scale should be greater than about 10 % of the maximum capacity of the scale; however, this will vary with the performance characteristics of thescale and the requ

44、ired accuracy of the determination. Acceptable scales used for determining the mass for concrete materials preferably should determinemass accurately to about 0.1 % of total capacity and the foregoing precaution is applicable. However, certain analytical and precision balances areexceptions to this

45、rule and should weigh accurately to 0.001 %. Particular care must be exercised in measuring small quantities of material by determiningthe difference between two much larger masses.4.13 Temperature Measuring DeviceThe temperature measuring device shall conform to the requirements of Test MethodC1064

46、/C1064M.4.14 Concrete MixerA power-driven concrete mixer shall be a revolving drum, tilting mixer, or suitable revolving pan orrevolving-paddle mixer capable of thoroughly mixing batches of the prescribed sizes at the required slump.NOTE 5A pan mixer is usually more suitable for mixing concrete with

47、 less than 1-in. 25 mm slump than a revolving drum mixer. The rate of rotation,degree of tilt, and rated capacity of tilting mixers are not always suitable for laboratory mixed concrete. It may be found desirable to reduce the rate ofrotation, decrease the angle of tilt from the horizontal, and use

48、the mixer at somewhat less than the manufacturers rated capacity.5. Specimens5.1 Cylindrical SpecimensCylinder dimensions shall be as stipulated in the specification, test method or practice for thelaboratory studies being performed and shall meet the requirements of 5.4. If dimensions are not stipu

49、lated in a specification, testmethod, or practice, the specimen selected shall have a length that is twice the diameter and meet the requirements of 5.4.NOTE 6The same cylinder size should be used for the reference (control) concrete mixture and test concrete mixtures when conducting comparativestudies such as those required in Specification C494/C494M. For mixture proportioning of project concrete, it is preferable for the cylinder size in thelaboratory to be the same as that specified for acceptance testing.NOTE 7Wh
