17、ication Limitations3.1 Specification C 270 is not a specification to determinemortar strengths through field testing.3.2 Laboratory testing of mortar to ensure compliance withthe property specification requirements of this specificationshall be performed in accordance with 5.3. The propertyspecifica

18、tion of this standard applies to mortar mixed to aspecific flow in the laboratory.3.3 The compressive strength values resulting from fieldtested mortars do not represent the compressive strength ofmortar as tested in the laboratory nor that of the mortar in thewall. Physical properties of field samp

19、led mortar shall not beused to determine compliance to this specification and are notintended as criteria to determine the acceptance or rejection ofthe mortar (see Section 8).4. Materials4.1 Materials used as ingredients in the mortar shall con-form to the requirements specified in 4.1.1 to 4.1.4.4

20、.1.1 Cementitious MaterialsCementitious materials shallconform to the following ASTM specifications:4.1.1.1 Portland CementTypes I, IA, II, IIA, III, or IIIAofSpecification C 150.4.1.1.2 Blended Hydraulic CementsTypes IS, IS-A, IP,IP-A, I(PM), I(PM)-A, I(SM), or I(SM)-A of SpecificationC 595.4.1.1.3

24、xtures shall notbe added to mortar unless specified. Coloring pigments shallconform to Specification C 979. Calcium chloride, when ex-plicitly provided for in the contract documents, is permitted tobe used as an accelerator in amounts not exceeding 2 % byweight of the portland cement content or 1 %

25、by weight of themasonry cement content, or both, of the mortar.NOTE 2If calcium chloride is allowed, it should be used with cautionas it may have a detrimental effect on metals and on some wall finishes.5. Requirements5.1 Unless otherwise stated, a cement/lime mortar, a mortarcement mortar, or a mas

26、onry cement mortar is permitted. Amortar type of known higher strength shall not be indiscrimi-nately substituted where a mortar type of anticipated lowerstrength is specified.5.2 Proportion SpecificationsMortar conforming to theproportion specifications shall consist of a mixture of cemen-titious m

27、aterial, aggregate, and water, all conforming to therequirements of Section 4 and the proportion specificationsrequirements of Table 1. See Appendix X1 or Appendix X3 fora guide for selecting masonry mortars.5.3 Property SpecificationsMortar conformance to theproperty specifications shall be establi

28、shed by tests of labora-tory prepared mortar in accordance with Section 6 and 7.2. Thelaboratory prepared mortar shall consist of a mixture ofcementitious material, aggregate, and water, all conforming tothe requirements of Section 4 and the properties of thelaboratory prepared mortar shall conform

29、to the requirementsof Table 2. See Appendix X1 for a guide for selecting masonrymortars.5.3.1 No change shall be made in the laboratory establishedproportions for mortar accepted under the property specifica-tions, except for the quantity of mixing water. Materials withdifferent physical characteris

30、tics shall not be utilized in themortar used in the work unless compliance with the require-ments of the property specifications is reestablished.NOTE 3The physical properties of plastic and hardened mortarcomplying with the proportion specification (5.1) may differ from thephysical properties of mo

31、rtar of the same type complying with theproperty specification (5.3). For example, laboratory prepared mortarsbatched to the proportions listed in Table 1 will, in many cases,considerably exceed the compressive strength requirements of Table 2.NOTE 4The required properties of the mortar in Table 2 a

32、re forlaboratory prepared mortar mixed with a quantity of water to produce aflow of 110 6 5 %. This quantity of water is not sufficient to produce amortar with a workable consistency suitable for laying masonry units inthe field. Mortar for use in the field must be mixed with the maximumamount of wa

33、ter, consistent with workability, in order to provide sufficientwater to satisfy the initial rate of absorption (suction) of the masonry units.The properties of laboratory prepared mortar at a flow of 110 6 5, asrequired by this specification, are intended to approximate the flow andproperties of fi

34、eld prepared mortar after it has been placed in use and thesuction of the masonry units has been satisfied. The properties of fieldprepared mortar mixed with the greater quantity of water, prior to beingplaced in contact with the masonry units, will differ from the propertyrequirements in Table 2. T

35、herefore, the property requirements in Table 2cannot be used as requirements for quality control of field preparedmortar. Test Method C 780 may be used for this purpose.NOTE 5Air content of non-air-entrained portland cement-lime mortaris generally less than 8 %.3Available from the Mason Contractors

48、 content calculations.It is not necessary for the purposes of this specification to measure the unitweight of the dry sand.Although the unit weight of dry sand will typicallybe 85100 pcf (13601760 kg/m3), experience has shown that the use ofan assumed unit weight of 80 pcf (1280 kg/m3) for dry sand

49、will result ina laboratory mortar ratio of aggregate to cementitious material that issimilar to that of the corresponding field mortar made using damp loosesand. A weight of 80 lb (36 kg) of dry sand is, in most cases, equivalentto the sand weight in 1 ft3(0.03 m3) of loose, damp sand.6.1.2 Oven dry and cool to room temperature all sand forlaboratory mixed mortars.
