Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method pr
9、ovides procedures for determiningthe oven-dry and equilibrium densities of structural lightweightconcrete, by calculation or measurement. The calculated oven-dry density is determined from batch quantities and volume ofa given batch of concrete. The calculated equilibrium density isapproximated by a
10、dding a fixed quantity to the oven-drydensity. Measured densities are obtained from determinationsof the mass of cylindrical specimens after specified treatments.5. Significance and Use5.1 The measured or calculated equilibrium density ofstructural lightweight concrete determines whether specifiedde
11、nsity requirements have been met. Unless otherwise speci-fied, determine equilibrium density by calculation using theprocedures in 9.2.5.2 Test Method C 138/C 138M shall be used to determinethe density of freshly mixed lightweight concrete for compli-ance with concrete placement specifications.NOTE
12、1The fresh density of lightweight aggregate concrete is afunction of mixture proportions, air content, water demand, and thespecific density and moisture content of the lightweight aggregate.Decrease in density of a specific lightweight concrete is due to moistureloss that, in turn, is a function of
13、 aggregate moisture content, ambientconditions, and the ratio of the surface area to the volume of the concretemember. For most structural lightweight concretes, equilibrium density isapproached at about 90 days. For most high-strength lightweight con-cretes, equilibrium density is approached at abo
14、ut 180 days. Extensivetests demonstrate that despite variations in the initial moisture content oflightweight aggregate, the equilibrium density will be approximately 50kg/m3(3.0 lb/ft3) greater than the oven-dry density.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C09 onConcrete an

21、 specified, test cylinders used for thedetermination of equilibrium density shall be cured in accor-dance with Practice C 192/C 192M or the standard curingprocedure in Practice C 31/C 31M.NOTE 2Cylinders may be stripped after 24 h and wrapped securelywith a plastic sheet or bag to prevent loss of mo

24、t used on smaller concrete specimens will cause the fresh densities tobe higher. The fresh density as determined from measurements on 150 by300-mm (6 by 12-in.) cylinders of lightweight concrete consolidated byrodding, in accordance with Practice C 192/C 192M or Practice C 31/C 31M will average 40 k

26、water at 23 6 2 C (73.5 6 3.5 F) for 24 h. Measure theapparent mass of the cylinders while suspended and completelysubmerged in water and record as “C,” the mass of thesuspended-immersed cylinder. Remove from the water andallow to drain for 1 min by placing the cylinder on a 9.5-mm(38-in.) or coarse
27、r sieve cloth. Remove visible water with adamp cloth, determine the mass and record as “B,” the mass ofthe saturated-surface-dry cylinder. Dry the cylinders with allsurfaces exposed, in a controlled humidity enclosure as de-scribed in 6.2 until the mass of the specimen changes not morethan 0.5 % (ga
