16、e aggregates proposed for specific 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.
17、1 Fine Aggregate GradingThe fine aggregate 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 1Take care in loading and delivery to avoid segregation.4.2.
18、3 The coarse aggregate used for the 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-containingconcr
19、etes as are intended to be compared.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 2). Accomplish t
20、his by placing equal quantities intoeach container, successively, and repeat the procedure until allthe containers have their required mass (See Note 2).NOTE 2See theAppendix of Practice D75, Sampling from Stockpiles,and the section on Sampling Aggregates in the Manual of Aggregate andConcrete Testi
21、ng4for guidance on procedures for sampling 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 sievesiz
22、e. Discard any set for which the sample deviates from thisaverage by more than the amount shown in column 3.

25、raining 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 4). If the maximum size of coarse aggregate isgreater than
26、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 pr
27、escribed in PracticeC192/C192M.NOTE 4It 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 con
28、form to the following requirements:5.1.1 The cement content shall be 307 6 3 kg/m3(517 6 5lb/yd3) except when tests are being made for specific uses (see4.4).4Manual of Aggregate and Concrete Testing, Annual Book of ASTMStandards , Vol 04.02.5The sole source of supply of Vinsol resin known to the co
29、mmittee at this timeis Hercules Inc., Wilmington, DE. If you are aware of alternative suppliers, pleaseprovide this information to ASTM International Headquarters. Your comments willreceive careful consideration at a meeting of the responsible technical committee,1which you may attend. Neutralizatio
30、n may be accomplished by treating 100 parts ofthe Vinsol resin with 9 to 15 parts of NaOH by weight. In an aqueous solution, theratio of reagent water (See Specification D1193) to the resinate shall not exceed 12:1by weight.C233 1025.1.2 The first trial mixture shall contain the amount ofcoarse aggr
31、egate shown in Table 6.3.6 of ACI 211.1 for themaximum size of aggregate and for the fineness modulus of thesand being used.NOTE 5The 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 i
32、s suggested, therefore, thatfor a closer approximation of the proportions required for this test, therecommended values in ACI 211.1 be multiplied by 1.07 for the first trialmixture.5.1.3 The air content used in the computation of proportionsfor all concrete shall be 5.5 % except where the admixture
33、under 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 the med
34、ian 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 possib
35、le. 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 admixt
36、ure under test and with thereference admixture. The admixtures shall be added in theamounts necessary to produce the air content selected inaccordance with 5.1.3 within a tolerance of 60.5 % of thevolume of concrete.6. Mixing6.1 Machine mix the concrete as prescribed in PracticeC192/C192M.7. Tests a

When lightweightaggregates, air-cooled blast furnace slag, or aggregates of highporosity, for which 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
39、 Time of SettingTest Method C403/C403M, exceptthat the temperature of each of the ingredients of the concretemixtures, just prior to mixing, and the temperature at which thetime of setting specimens are stored during the test period shallbe 23.06 2C(736 3 F).8. Preparation of Test Specimens8.1 Speci
40、mens for test of hardened concrete, representingeach test and age of test and each condition of concrete beingcompared, shall be made from at least three separate batches,and the minimum number of specimens shall be as prescribedin Table 1. On a given day at least one specimen shall be madefor each
41、test and age of test from each condition of concreteexcept that at least two specimens for the freezing and thawingtest shall be made from each condition of concrete. Thepreparation of all specimens shall be completed in three days ofmixing.8.2 Manifestly Faulty SpecimensEach group of specimensrepre
42、senting a given test or a given age of test, including testsof freshly mixed concrete, shall be examined visually before orduring the test, or both, whichever is appropriate. Discard anyspecimen found to be manifestly faulty by such examinationwithout testing. Visually examine all specimens represen
43、ting agiven test at a given age after testing, and should any specimenbe found to be manifestly faulty, the test results thereof shall bedisregarded. Should more than one specimen representing agiven test at a given age be found manifestly faulty, eitherbefore or after testing, the entire test shall
44、 be disregarded andrepeated. The test result reported shall be the average of theindividual test results of the specimens tested or, in the eventthat one specimen or one result has been discarded, it shall bethe average of the test results of the remaining specimens.9.
