A superscriptepsilon () 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 tile

3、. 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 C216.1.1.2 Grade LBSuitable for general use in masonry wherenot

4、 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 1Col

5、or 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 from

6、testing of tileextracted from masonry structures for determining conform-ance or non-conformance to the property requirements (Section3) of this standard is beyond the scope of this standard.1.3 Tile covered by this standard are manufactured fromclay, shale, or similar naturally occurring substances

7、 andsubjected to a heat treatment at elevated temperatures (firing).The heat treatment must develop sufficient fired bond betweenthe particulate constituents to provide the strength and dura-bility requirements of this specification. (See firing and firedbond in Terminology C1232.)1.4 The text of th

If any of the faces arenot scored the weights are increased 1 lb/ft2of unscored area.4.2 In double-shell tile, the two voids between exterior andinterior shells on the sides of

19、the tile shall be considered as onecell in thickness of wall when their combined width is not lessthan12 in. (12.7 mm) provided the short webs between theinner and outer shells are not greater in number of thicknessthan the long transverse webs holding the inner shells.4.3 Re-entrant spaces not less

20、 than 1 in. (25.4 mm) in depthand not less than 1 in.2(6.5 cm2) in area, which form cellswhen the units are laid in the walls, shall be considered as cellsin the direction of wall thickness, but not in the units.5. Shell and Web Thickness5.1 The average over-all thickness of the shells, measuredbetw

21、een the inner and extreme outer surfaces of end-construction load-bearing tile, shall be not less than34 in. (19mm) except that in double-shell tile the combined averageover-all thickness of the inner and outer shell shall be not lessthan34 in. The thickness of the webs shall be not less than12in. (

22、12.7 mm).5.2 The average over-all thickness of the shells, measuredbetween the inner and extreme outer surfaces of side-construction load-bearing tile, shall be not less than58 in. (15.8mm) except that in double-shell tile the combined averageover-all thickness of the inner and outer shells shall be

23、 not lessthan34 in. (19 mm). The thickness of the webs shall be not lessthan12 in. (12.7 mm).5.3 The width of any cell in side-construction tile, measuredin the direction of wall thickness, shall not exceed four and onehalf times the average over-all thickness of either the upper orlower bearing she

24、ll. If no cell in side-construction tile, mea-sured in the direction of the wall thickness, exceeds four timesthe average over-all thickness of either the upper or lowerbearing shell, the requirements for minimum shell and webthickness specified in 5.2 shall be waived.5.4 The thickness of bonding an

25、d other types of tile manu-factured for use in combination with brick or other materialsshall match the thickness required by construction require-ments.NOTE 4Purchasers and designers should ascertain the type and size oftile, modular or nonmodular, available in the locality under considerationand s

26、hould specify accordingly, stating the size and type represented bythe available tile.Modular sizes are designated by the specified nominal dimensionswhich are equal to the actual manufactured dimensions plus the thicknessof one mortar joint, not to exceed12 in. (12.7 mm) (see Section 5.) Forexample

27、, if the modular, specified, or nominal dimensions of a unit are 4by 8 by 12 in. (101.6 by 203.2 by 304.8 mm) the actual manufactureddimensions may be 312 by 712 by 1112 in. (88.9 by 190.5 by 292.1 mm).6. Permissible Variations in Dimensions6.1 No over-all dimension shall vary more than 3 % over oru

28、nder 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 Surfaces of tile for plaster-base finish shall be smooth,scored, combed, or roughened. Wh

29、en 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 more than 1 in. (25.4 mm) in width. The area coveredby the grooves shall not exceed

30、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 in., nor more than18 in. (3.2 mm) in depth, and not morethan14 in. apart. When roug

31、hened, the die skin on the face ofthe tile shall be entirely broken by mechanical means, such aswire cutting or wire brushing.

Atleast 10 days from the t

35、ime of sampling is allowed forcompletion of the tests.8.2 Tile shall be sampled and tested in accordance with TestMethods C67.9. Visual Inspection9.1 All tile shall be reasonably free of laminations and ofcracks, blisters, surface roughness, and other defects thatinterfere with the proper setting of

Rejection10.1 In case the shipment fails to conform to the require-ments for the grade specified, the manufacturer is permitted tosort it. New specimens shall be selected by the purchaser fromthe retained lot and tested at the exp
