1、Designation: C233/C233M 11Standard Test Method forAir-Entraining Admixtures for Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C233/C233M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the testing of materials pro-p

3、osed for use as air-entraining admixtures in the field.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, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues

4、from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard. Some values have only SI units because theinch-pound equivalents are not used in practice.NOTE 1Sieve size is identified by its standard designation in Speci-fication E11. The alternative designation given in parentheses is forinfo

5、rmation only and does not represent a different standard sieve size.1.3 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 a

6、pplica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 The text of this test method references notes andfootnotes which provide explanatory material.

Materials4.1 Cement

16、The cement used in any series of tests shall beeither the cement proposed for specific work in accordancewith 4.4, a Type I or Type II cement conforming to Specifica-tion C150, or a blend of two or more cements, in equal parts.Each cement of the blend shall conform to the requirements ofeither Type

17、I or Type II, Specification C150. If a blend ofcements is used, it shall be a combination which produces anair content of less than 10 % when tested in accordance withTest Method C185 (Note 5).4.2 AggregatesExcept when tests are made in accordancewith 4.4, using the aggregates proposed for specific

18、work, thefine and coarse aggregates used in any series of tests shall comefrom single lots of well-graded, sound materials that conformto the requirements of Specification C33, except that thegrading of the aggregates shall conform to the followingrequirements:4.2.1 Fine Aggregate GradingThe fine ag

19、gregate shallmeet the requirements for the fine aggregate in SpecificationC33.4.2.2 Coarse Aggregate GradingThe coarse aggregategrading shall meet the Size 57 grading requirements ofSpecification C33.NOTE 2Take care in loading and delivery to avoid segregation.4.2.3 The coarse aggregate used for the

20、 reference concreteand test concretes shall be essentially the same. Providesufficient coarse aggregate for the reference concrete, the testconcrete, and for the grading analysis. Concrete consists of onereference concrete and as many test admixture-containingconcretes as are intended to be compared

21、.4.2.3.1 Prepare required quantities of coarse aggregate asfollows: Fill tared containers, one for sieve analysis, one for abatch of reference concrete, and one for a batch of testconcrete, to the required mass from the aggregate stockpile(See Note 3). Accomplish this by placing equal quantities int

22、oeach container, successively, and repeat the procedure until allthe containers have their required mass (See Note 3).NOTE 3See theAppendix of Practice D75, Sampling from Stockpiles,and the section on Sampling Aggregates in the Manual of Aggregate andConcrete Testing4for guidance on procedures for s

23、ampling from stock-piles.4.2.4 Perform sieve analysis on the coarse aggregate sampleprepared in 4.2.3.1 by Test Method C136. Discard any set forwhich the sample does not comply with Size 57. Average testresults for samples that comply with Size 57 for each sievesize. Discard any set for which the sa

24、mple deviates from thisaverage by more than the amount shown in column 3. Continuethe process of preparation, testing and averaging until sufficientsets of aggregate within tolerance are obtained.SieveSpecification C33,No. 57PercentPassingMaximumvariationfromaverage/passing37.5mm(112 in.) 100 0025.0

27、entraining admixture for use in specific work, thecement and aggregates used shall be representative of thoseproposed for use in the work, and the concrete mixtures shallbe designed to have the cement content specified for use in thework (Note 5). If the maximum size of coarse aggregate isgreater th

28、an 25.0 mm 1 in., the freshly mixed concrete shallbe screened over a 25.0-mm (1-in.) sieve prior to fabricatingthe test specimens in accordance with the wet sieving proce-dure described in Practice C172.4.5 Preparation and WeighingAll materials shall be pre-pared and all weighings shall be made as p

29、rescribed in PracticeC192/C192M.NOTE 5It is recommended that whenever practicable, tests be made inaccordance with 4.4 using the cement and pozzolanic or chemicaladmixtures, if any, proposed for specific work.5. Concrete Mixtures5.1 ProportionsUsing ACI 211.1, all concrete shall beproportioned to co

30、nform to the following requirements:5.1.1 The cement content shall be 307 6 3 kg/m3517 6 5lb/yd3 except when tests are being made for specific uses (see4.4).5.1.2 The first trial mixture shall contain the amount ofcoarse aggregate shown in Table 6.3.6 of ACI 211.1 for themaximum size of aggregate an

31、d for the fineness modulus of thesand being used.NOTE 6The volumes of coarse aggregate recommended in ACI 211.1are intended to ensure workable mixtures with the least favorablecombinations of aggregate likely to be used. It is suggested, therefore, that4Manual of Aggregate and Concrete Testing, Annu

35、xtureunder test is for use in specific work (see 4.4). In this case theair content used in selecting proportions shall be the median ofthe range to be permitted in the work. If lightweight aggregatesare to be used in specific work, the unit weight of concrete usedin selecting proportions shall be th

36、e median of the rangepermitted in the work.5.1.4 The water content and sand content shall be adjustedto obtain a slump of 90 6 15 mm 312 612 in. Theworkability of the concrete mixture shall be suitable forconsolidation by hand rodding and the concrete mixture shallhave the minimum water content poss

These conditionsshall be achieved by final adjustments in the proportion of fineaggregate to total aggregate, in the amount of total aggregate,or both, while maintaining the yield and slump in the requiredranges.5.2 ConditionsConcrete mixtures shall be prepared bothwith the air-entraining admi

38、xture under test and with thereference admixture. For the referenced mixture, the referenceadmixture shall be added in amounts necessary to produce anair content of 5.5 6 0.5 %, or within the range permitted for thespecific work in accordance with 5.1.3. For the test mixture, thetest admixture shall

39、 be added in amounts necessary to producean air content within 0.5 % of the reference mixture.6. Mixing6.1 Machine mix the concrete as prescribed in PracticeC192/C192M.7.

When lightweightaggregates, air-cooled blast furnace slag, or aggregates of highporosity, for which

41、 the aggregate correction factor defined inTest Method C231 exceeds 0.5 %, are used under the provi-sions of 4.4, use Test Method C173/C173M.7.1.3 BleedingTest Methods C232.7.1.4 Time of SettingTest Method C403/C403M, exceptthat the temperature of each of the ingredients of the concretemixtures, jus
