The minimum span between supports shall not beless than 2.5 multiplied by the average depth of the specimen. The distance between each
15、 support and the adjacent distributed pointload shall be one-third of the span length 63 mm 0.1 in. Steel rods with a maximum diameter of 25 mm 1 in. shall be usedto support the specimen and apply the load. The steel rods shall extend over the full width of the specimen and shall have the samenomina
16、l diameter.NOTE 2The loading apparatus is intended to be similar to that used in Test Method C78 to reduce the need for redundant testing equipment.5.3 Test Method BThe uniform loading method is illustrated in Fig. 2. The minimum span between supports shall not be lessthan 2.5 multiplied by the aver
17、age depth of the specimen. Uniformly distributed transverse load shall be applied by air pressureusing an air bag over the full surface of the specimen. The air bag reaction frame shall fully contact one surface of the air bag andshall be sufficiently stiff as to not deflect more than the span divid
18、ed by 600 during testing.NOTE 3Air bags manufactured using 0.5 mm 0.02 in. thick polyvinyl chloride have been successfully used with this test. When testing specimensconstructed with a high bond-strength mortar, or whose thickness is greater than a nominal 100 mm 4 in., the applied load required to
19、fail the specimenmay be such as to rupture the seams of the air bag. In such cases Test Method A is recommended.6. Sampling and Testing6.1 Masonry UnitsRepresentative masonry units shall be sampled and tested in accordance with the following applicablemethods: Test Methods C67 for brick, or Test Met
20、hods C140 for concrete masonry units. Minimum tests required shall becompressive strength, and initial rate of absorption for brick or absorption for concrete masonry units.6.2 MortarOne of the types of mortar in Specification C270 shall be used, or the mortar shall conform to that specified forthe
21、construction. Sand sieve analysis shall be performed and recorded, except when ASTM C778 standard sand is used. If ASTMC778 standard sand is used, the record shall identify the sand as 2030 sand, graded sand, or a blend of indicated proportions ofeach sand by weight.6.2.1 Mortar for prism fabricatio
22、n shall be mixed to a workable consistency. The compressive strength, initial flow, and waterretention of the mortar shall be determined in accordance with the requirements of Specification C270, except that the cubesmolded for the compressive strength test, after moist curing in the molds for 24 h,
23、 shall be released and stored in the sameatmosphere as the prisms as specified in Section 78. The following physical properties of the mortar shall be determined andrecorded:6.2.2 Compressive strength (average of three cubes),6.2.3 Initial flow (laboratory-mixed mortar only),6.2.4 Flow after suction
24、 (water retention) (laboratory-mixed mortar only).7. Test Specimens7.1 A minimum of five test specimens shall be constructed as stack-bonded prisms, at least 460 mm 18 in. high with mortarjoints 10 6 1.5 mm 38 6 116 in. in thickness.The number of courses in each specimen shall be such as to permit l
25、ocating supportsand loading points midway between joints for Test MethodAtests (4, 7, 10, 13, or 16 courses, depending on face heights of units),and to provide for a span-to-depth ratio that exceeds 2.5. When the test is for the purpose of determining the quality of materialsand workmanship during c
26、onstruction, the specimens shall be constructed at the site by the masons involved, utilizing the materialson the site and the same masonry construction techniques.FIG. 1 The Third-Point Loading Method (Test Method A)E518/E518M 1527.2 Applicable portions of the following procedures shall be observed
27、:7.2.1 Set units on a firm, flat surface without the use of mortar, leaving not less than 50-mm 2-in. spaces between stretchers.7.2.2 Place a full or face shell mortar bed (in accordance with job specification) on all units without furrowing.7.2.3 Immediately place the next course of units on the mo
28、rtar bed and tap each unit to level. Align at least one vertical faceof each prism to a plane using a level or other means. (Note 4).7.2.4 Repeat steps 6.2.27.2.2 and 6.2.37.2.3 until the prisms are the required number of courses high. Tool or otherwise finishthe joints as specified.NOTE 4A convenie
29、nt method of aligning one face is to use a jig as illustrated in Fig. 3.8. Handling and Curing Conditions8.1 Unless otherwise specified, all prisms shall be cured for 28 days. The prisms together with corresponding mortar cubes shallbe cured in laboratory air maintained at a temperature of 24 6 8C 7
30、5 6 15F, with a relative humidity between 30 and 70 %,and free of drafts. These environmental conditions generally will not require special air-conditioning equipment. A continuousgraphical record of temperature and humidity will suffice to detect unusual dryness or excessive moisture, together with
31、 unusualfluctuations of temperature.8.1.1 Where prisms are made during construction at the job site, they shall be constructed in a place where they will not bedisturbed, but will be subjected to air conditions similar to those in the masonry structure.9. Procedure9.1 Place the test specimen horizon
32、tally on its supports as a simply supported beam. If full contact is not obtained between thespecimen and the load-applying blocks and supports, compressible shims or a bed of gypsum capping material shall be used tolevel and seat the specimen thereby ensuring the uniform application of load. If com
33、pressible shims are used, they shall be madeof leather or similar compressible material of uniform-thickness, not less than 6 mm 14 in. thick, 25 to 50 mm 1 to 2 in. in width,and shall extend across the full width of the specimen.9.2 Apply the load at a uniform rate of travel of the moving head such
34、 that the total load is applied in not less than 1 nor morethan 3 min.9.3 Record the maximum applied load in Newtons (pounds) as P and the location of the break.10.

38、 in 9.2.110.2.1.NOTE 5The equations for determining the modulus of rupture values in 9.110.1 and 9.210.2 assume that the location of the failure plane occurs atFIG. 3 Use of a Jig to Align One Face of a Prism to a PlaneE518/E518M 154the mid-span of the specimen. Where the failure location is other t
39、han mid-span, the use of these equations for determining the modulus of rupture willnot be entirely accurate. Where a more precise assessment of the specimensmodulus of rupture values is deemed appropriate, a more thorough analysisusing accepted engineering mechanics should be employed.10.3 If the f
