1、Designation: C 34 03Standard Specification forStructural Clay Load-Bearing Wall Tile1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 34; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in p

2、arentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon (e) 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 specification covers structural clay loading-bearingwall t

3、ile. Two grades of tile are covered, as follows:1.1.1 Grade LBXSuitable for general use in masonryconstruction and adapted for use in masonry exposed toweathering, provided they meet the durability requirements forGrade SW of Specification C 216.1.1.2 Grade LBSuitable for general use in masonry wher

4、enot exposed to frost action, or for use in exposed masonrywhere protected with a facing of 3 in. (76.2 mm) or more ofstone, brick, terra cotta, or other masonry.1.1.3 If tile having a particular color, texture, or finish aredesired, these features shall be specified separately by thepurchaser.NOTE

5、1Color of tile varies with the type of clay used and degree ofburning; hence, it cannot be taken as indicative of classification until afterit has been related to absorption and strength by actual tests.1.2 The property requirements of this standard apply at thetime of purchase. The use of results f

28、Variations in Dimensions6.1 No over-all dimension shall vary more than 3 % over orunder the specified dimension for any form or size of tile.7. Finish7.1 The finish of the outer face or faces of tile shall beplaster-base finish or exposed wall finish as specified in theinvitation for bids.7.2 Surfac

29、es of tile for plaster-base finish shall be smooth,scored, combed, or roughened. When smooth, the tile shall befree of glaze and the absorption shall be not less than 5 % normore than 25 %. When scored, each groove shall be not lessthan116 in. (1.6 mm) nor more than14 in. (6.4 mm) in depth,and not m

30、ore than 1 in. (25.4 mm) in width. The area coveredby the grooves shall not exceed 50 % of the area of the scoredfaces. When combed, the tile shall be scratched or scarified,prior to burning, by mechanical means which shall makescratches or scarifications on the surface of the tile not less than116

31、in., nor more than18 in. (3.2 mm) in depth, and not morethan14 in. apart. When roughened, the die skin on the face ofthe tile shall be entirely broken by mechanical means, such aswire cutting or wire brushing. (The die skin is visible withinthe cells of the tile.)7.3 Surfaces of tile with exposed fi

32、nish shall be smooth,combed, or roughened.

35、at the place of manufacture and at the site of the work. Atleast 10 days from the time of sampling is allowed forcompletion of the tests.8.2 Tile shall be sampled and tested in accordance with TestMethods C 67.9.

Rejection10.1 In case the shipment fails to conform to the require-ments for the grade specified, the manufacturer is permitted tosort it. New spe

37、cimens shall be selected by the purchaser fromthe retained lot and tested at the expense of the manufacturer.In case the second set of specimens fails to meet the require-ments, the entire lot shall be rejected.11.
