34、ablished.NOTE 3The physical properties of plastic and hardened mortarcomplying with the proportion specification (5.1) may differ from thephysical properties of mortar of the same type complying with theproperty specification (5.3). For example, laboratory prepared mortarsbatched to the proportions

35、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 are forlaboratory prepared mortar mixed with a quantity of water to produce aflow of 110 6 5 %. This quantity of water is not sufficient t

36、o 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 water, consistent with workability, in order to provide sufficientwater to satisfy the initial rate of absorption (suction) of the masonry

37、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 field prepared mortar after it has been placed in use and thesuction of the masonry units has been satisfied. The properties of fieldprepar

38、ed 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. Therefore, the property requirements in Table 2cannot be used as requirements for quality control of field preparedmortar. Test Method C78
