7、 This test method is designed to present in a standardizedformat information on the variability of strength of cementfrom a single source over a period of time. It can be applied toall hydraulic cements covered in Specifications C 150, C 595,and C 1157.NOTE 1It should be recognized that concrete str

8、ength variability isinfluenced by other factors in addition to cement strength variability.5. Sampling5.1 All sampling shall be performed by quality control ortesting personnel or someone specifically trained for thispurpose.5.2 Take random grab samples from delivery units or duringthe loading or un

9、loading process. Delivery units larger than125 tons (115 Mg) shall be sampled during loading orunloading. If samples are taken during loading or unloading,the two or more portions that are to be composited to make asample shall be taken during the transfer to no more than 125tons (115 Mg) of cement.

10、 Identify samples by the date onwhich the cement they represent was shipped or received.NOTE 2Standard statistical procedures are recommended for ensuringthat samples are selected by a random procedure. These procedures can beused to select the days within a month or within a week that samples willb

11、e taken. Then the delivery unit or the time of day can be chosenrandomly.5.3 If taken from a truck or rail car, take at least twoseparate 5-lb (approximately 2.3-kg) grab samples and thor-oughly mix together to obtain a minimum 10-lb (4.5-kg) testsample. Sample only through hatches in the top of the

12、 unit.Remove approximately a 12-in. (300-mm) layer of cement.Make a hole before obtaining a sample to avoid collecting dustcollector material that may be discharged into the delivery unitafter the cement flow ceases.5.4 If taken from another point in the loading or unloadingprocess, the sample shall

13、 consist of a minimum of two separate5-lb (approximately 2.3-kg) grab samples thoroughly mixedtogether or at least 10 lb (4.5 kg) as accumulated by acontinuous sampler. Take care to avoid segregation and con-tamination of samples taken from screws, pneumatic systems,or air slides.5.5 When samples ar

14、e taken at the cement plant andshipments or rate of production of the cement exceeds 25 000tons (23 000 Mg) per month, take samples at a rate of at leastten per month and at least two per week.When shipment or rate1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee C01 on Cementand is the d

17、tons (23 000Mg) per month, take samples at a rate of at least one per 2500tons (2300 Mg). When samples are taken at the cement plant,in no instance shall samples be taken more frequently than oneper 200 tons (180 Mg) of cement shipped or received, exceptthat sampling of consecutive shipments is perm

18、itted when theyresult from randomization.6. Procedure6.1 Test all samples for 7- and 28-day compressive strengthin accordance with Test Method C 109/C 109M using threespecimens for each test age. To be comparable, all tests used ina single evaluation must be made in a single laboratory andpreferably

19、 by the same laboratory operator.NOTE 3When separate evaluations of a single source are made by twoor more laboratories, additional tests of a standard cement or exchange ofportions of the same sample of cement may be necessary to determinedifferences in testing that are likely to be obtained in the

20、 differentlaboratories. Five or more batches may be necessary to obtain a validcomparison between laboratories. Statistical techniques must be used toassess the validity of differences that might be obtained. Participation inthe Cement Proficiency Sample Program of the CCRL by both laborato-ries wil

21、l be helpful in resolving differences that are found.6.1.1 When two laboratories exchange portions of the samesample and prepare single batches, results from the twolaboratories shall not differ by more than 18.7 % of the averageof the two laboratories (see Test Method C 109/C 109Mmultilaboratory d2

22、s). If a larger number of samples areexchanged the difference in average strength shall not exceed18.7/=n % of the overall average strength, where n is thenumber of samples exchanged and tested by each laboratory.Amore precise calculation is outlined in Appendix X1.6.2 Mix duplicate batches of morta

23、r to determine the effectof testing variations on the uniformity of results made in asingle laboratory. Make duplicate batches on a day differentfrom the original batch of mortar.6.2.1 When a uniformity testing program is started onshipments from a single source, make duplicate batches ofmortar from

24、 every third cement sample. When duplicate testshave been made from a minimum of five cement samples,calculate the average range, R , for the available duplicates,then calculate standard deviation and coefficient of variationfor testing according to 7.1.3 and 7.1.4, respectively. Increasethe number

25、of duplicate batches used in the calculation untilthe results of ten cement samples are used in the calculation.After that time, use only the ten most recent results of duplicatetesting in the calculation of the standard deviation and coeffi-cient of variation for testing. See Table 1.6.2.2 When at

26、least ten sets of duplicate batches have beenmade and the coefficient of variation for testing is less than4.0 %, the frequency of testing duplicate batches can bereduced to one out of ten consecutive cement samples. Resumetesting one sample out of three if the coefficient of variationlater exceeds

27、4.0 %. If the coefficient of variation for testingexceeds 5.5 %, the data are of questionable precision, andlaboratory procedures and equipment should be thoroughlyexamined.6.2.3 Use the results of duplicate tests indicating acceptableprecision to estimate the single-laboratory testing variation for

28、all other types of cement tested in that laboratory during thesame period of time, provided that duplicate tests have beenmade on at least one sample per month.7.
