13、n irritations are likely to occurowing to the alkaline nature of cement. The abrasive effects of sand andaggregate in the concrete can aggravate the condition. Potential effects rangefrom dry skin, irritant contact dermatitis, to severe burns in cases of prolongedexposure. Take precautions to avoid
14、dry cement entering the eyes, mouth andnose when mixing mortar or concrete by wearing suitable protective clothing.Take care to prevent fresh concrete from entering boots and use workingmethods that do not require personnel to kneel in fresh concrete. Unlike heatburns, cement burns might not be felt
15、 until some time after contact with freshconcrete, so there might be no warning of damage occurring. If cement orconcrete enters the eye, immediately wash it out thoroughly with clean waterand seek medical treatment without delay. Wash wet concrete off the skinimmediately. Barrier creams may be used
16、 to supplement protective clothing butare not an alternative means of protection.The high humidity required in moist air curing rooms is normally produced byspraying water as a fine aerosol. The bacterium Legionella pneumophila iswidespread and is present in the water systems of many buildings. Scal
17、e inpipework and chemical nutrients in the water supply can encourage growth ofthis organism which multiplies between temperatures of 20 C and 45 C.Inhaling infected aerosols is a known route for transmission of Legionnairesdisease. It is therefore advisable to maintain cold water supplies below 20
18、Cwhere possible and to store hot water above 60 C. Cold water supplies may bedisinfected by chlorination to at least 5 mg/L free chlorine. Regular periodicchecking for the presence of Legionella species in industrial water supplies is asensible precaution.Use of this documentIt has been assumed in t

30、 no-fines concrete by the procedure given inBS EN 12350-1. Commence making the cube as soon as possible after sampling.6 Sample preparationEmpty the sample from the container(s) on to the remixing tray (4.5). Ensurethat no more than a light covering of slurry is left adhering to the container(s).Tho
31、roughly mix the sample by shovelling it to form a cone on the remixing trayand turning this over with the shovel to form a new cone, the operation beingcarried out three times. When forming the cones deposit each shovelful of thematerial on the apex of the cone so the portions that slide down the si
32、des aredistributed as evenly as possible and the centre of the cone is not displaced.Flatten the third cone by repeated vertical insertion of the shovel across theapex of the cone, lifting the shovel clear of the concrete after each insertion.7 Procedure7.1 Test cubes7.1.1 Complete 7.1.2 to 7.1.6 wi
33、thin 10 min of the discharge of the concretefrom the mixer or the delivery vehicle.7.1.2 Fit the extension piece (4.2) to the mould (4.1) and, using the scoop (4.3),carefully place a layer of concrete, about 75 mm deep, into the mould, ensuringthat the corners of the mould are properly filled.7.1.3
34、Place the square bearing plate of the tamper (4.4) on top of the concretewith the axis of the tamper vertical. Raise the rammer to the top of its travel sothat it just touches the top of the sleeve without slack. Allow the rammer todrop freely, through a distance of (300 3) mm on to the concrete. Co
35、mpleteten such blows on the bottom layer of concrete.7.1.4 Fill the top half of the mould until the concrete is just above the top ofthe mould and slightly heaped towards the centre.7.1.5 Compact the top layer with ten blows of the rammer in a similar mannerto the bottom layer.7.1.6 Remove the mould
36、 extension piece. If the surface of the concrete is abovethe top of the mould obtain a reasonably true face by gently scraping thesurface of the concrete. Use the edge of the steel trowel or float (4.7) to removesurplus material and fill surface voids with individual particles where necessary.7.2 Cu
37、ring7.2.1 Immediately after making the cubes store them in a place free fromvibration and in conditions that prevent moisture loss. If it is necessary to movethe specimens to the place of storage, move them in their moulds ensuring noloss of concrete.7.2.2 Store the specimens either:a) in an atmosph
38、ere with a relative humidity of over 95 % in a moist aircuring room or a cabinet; orb) providing that no free water can enter the cubes, under damp mattingor any other suitable damp material wrapped completely withpolyethylene or other impervious sheeting.BRITISH STANDARD BS 1881-113:2011 BSI 2011 3
39、NOTE The preferred method of storage of specimens is that described in a). If amoist air curing room or a cabinet is not available each cube may be sealed in itsmould using an impermeable cover.7.2.3 Whichever method of moist air storage is used, maintain the temperatureof the cubes at (20 5) C.7.2.
40、4 Demould the cubes within a period of 16 h to 28 h after the water wasadded to the mix unless this is not possible due to the concrete havinginadequate strength. If this is the case, continue curing the cubes in the moistconditions for a further 24 h before demoulding.7.2.5 Upon demoulding, mark ea
41、ch cube clearly and indelibly with anidentification number or code.7.2.6 Immediately after marking, thoroughly wet each cube by immersing it inwater until air bubbles cease to rise. Drain the cube and immediately place it ina polyethylene bag. If necessary, protect the polyethylene bag from puncturi
42、ngby first wrapping the cube in damp hessian or other suitable damp ornon-absorbent material.7.2.7 Seal the bag and store it at a temperature of (20 5) C and transport it tothe testing laboratory within 5 days. At the laboratory, keep the cube in its bag,at a temperature of (20 5) C, until it is not
43、 less than 5 days and not more than6 days old. Remove the cube from the bag and allow it to dry in the laboratory.7.2.8 Keep a record of the daily maximum and minimum storage temperatures,these data being obtained by the use of either maximum and minimumthermometers or continuous recording instrumen
