17、this test method, refer to Terminology standards C125 and D653.3.1.2 Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), na mixture of soil, aggregates (sand, gravel, or both), cementitiousmaterials, potable water, and sometimes admixtures, that hardens into a material with a higher strength than the soil, but
18、 less than8400 kPa 1200 psi.3.1.2.1 DiscussionUsed as a replacement for compacted backfill, CLSM can be placed as a slurry, a mortar, or a compacted material and typicallyhas strengths of 350 to 700 kPa 50 to 100 psi for most applications.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A half spherical weight is dropp
19、ed five times from a specific height onto the surface of in-place CLSM. The diameter ofthe resulting indentation is measured and compared to established criteria. The indentation is inspected for any free water broughtto the surface from the impact.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used
20、 primarily as a field test to determine the readiness of the CLSM to accept loads prior to addinga temporary or permanent wearing surface.5.2 This test method is not meant to predict the load bearing strength of a CLSM mixture.5.3 This test is one of a series of quality control tests that can be per
21、formed on CLSM during construction to monitor compliancewith specification requirements. The other tests that can be used during construction control are Test Methods D4832, D6023, andD6103.NOTE 1The quality of the result produced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel perf
22、orming it, and the suitability of theequipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D3740 are generally considered capable of competent and objectivetesting/sampling/inspection/and the like. Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D3740 does not
23、 in itself assure reliable results.Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.6. Apparatus6.1 Ball-drop ApparatusA Ball Penetration Apparatus (Kelly Ball) that consists of a half sphere with a handle, togetherweighing 14-15 kg 30-33 l
24、b. The half spherical weight may be machined from metal stock or cast or spun with a smooth finishand shall have a radius of 73 mm 2.875 in. to 79 mm 3.125 in. A stirrup or frame approximately 270 mm 10.5 in. wide andapproximately 140 mm 5.5 in. high shall guide the handle such that the Kelly Ball f
25、alls freely and perpendicular to the surfacebeing tested (see Fig. 1).6.1.1 Blockspieces of wood, or ultra high molecular weight plastic (UHMW) that are approximately 90 mm 3.5 in. high areused to elevate the stirrups to the proper height. The stirrups must be centered on the blocks to avoid tipping
26、, and attached securelyto the stirrups so shifting does not occur. The blocks shall be parallel to each other and perpendicular to the main stirrup frame.The blocks must not interfere with the ball-drop apparatus. Each block shall have dimensions of approximately 90 mm 3.5 in.wide by 180 mm 7 in. lo
27、ng with a minimum bearing area of 0.015 m2 24 in2 and shall support the stirrup such that the KellyBall falls freely for a distance of 108 mm 4.25 in. to 114 mm 4.5 in.6.2 Measuring Devicea ruler, metal roll-up measuring tape, or similar rigid or semi-rigid length measuring instrument markedin incre
28、ments of 3 mm 0.125 in. or smaller capable of measuring the diameter of the indentation.7. Procedure7.1 The surface of the CLSM will need to be as level as possible either by self-leveling or by slight brooming action with handtools. Set the elevated base of the apparatus on the leveled CLSM surface
29、, with the handle in a vertical position and free to slidethrough the frame. Put slight pressure on the frame with your free hand to stabilize the device. Lift the handle as far as possibleallowing the top surface of the ball to contact the underside of the stirrup frame. Release the weight allowing
30、 it to free fall to thesurface of the CLSM. Repeat this for a total of five consecutive times at each location tested. Before testing a new location of thein-place CLSM remove any material that has adhered to the ball from previous testing.7.2 Measure the diameter of the indentation left by the ball
31、 to the nearest 2.5 mm 0.125 in. with a measuring device.NOTE 2See Appendix X1 for nonmandatory information about acceptance criteria.7.3 Inspect the indentation for visible surface water or sheen brought to the surface by the dropping action of the ball. Thesurface should look similar to that befor
32、e the test with the exception of an indentation. The presence of surface water may indicatethe CLSM is unsuitable or not ready for load application.D6024/D6024M 1628. Report: Test Data Sheet(s)/Form(s)8.1 The methodology used to specify how data are recorded on the test data sheet(s)/form(s), as giv

34、 the following test data:8.3.1 Visible surface water or sheen brought to the surface by the dropping action,8.3.2 Irregularities on the surface of the in place CLSM, such as indentations left by the blocks or severe cracking, and8.3.3 Diameter of indentation to the nearest 2.5 mm 0.125 in.9. Precisi
35、on and Bias9.1 PrecisionTest data on precision is not presented due to the nature of this test method. It is either not feasible or too costlyat this time to have ten or more agencies participate in an in situ testing program at a given site.9.1.1 The Subcommittee D18.15 is seeking any data from use
36、rs of the test method that might be used to make a limitedstatement on precision.9.2 BiasThere is no accepted reference value for this test method, therefore, bias cannot be determined.10.

EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS OF THE TEST METHODX1.1 Application of this test method is typically based on establishing a maximum allowed diameter of the indentation caused bythe b
38、all drop apparatus prior to application of additional load. The subcommittee is not aware of any published data or studiessupporting specific acceptance criteria. Subcommittee members familiar with the application of the method have reported 75 mm3 in. as a common criterial in utility applications (
39、for example, trench backfill) and 100 mm 4 in. being acceptable in otherapplications such as pavement subgrade. Field conditions and application should be considered carefully when establishingacceptance criteria.X1.2 Hot weather can cause a hard crust to form on the surface of CLSM that should be r
40、emoved before performing the testmethod. It may be necessary to remove a depth of 25 to 75 mm 1 to 3 in. in such cases.SUMMARY OF CHANGESCommittee D18 has identified the location of selected changes to this standard since the last issue (2015) thatmay impact the use of this standard.
