10、 8ii BSI 07-1999 BS 1881 : Part 131 : 1998 | | Foreword This Part of BS 1881 has been prepared by Subcommittee B/517/1. It supersedes BS 4550 : Part 4 : 1978 and BS 4550 : Part 5 : 1978 which are withdrawn. It also supersedes clause 1 of BS 4550 : Section 3.4 : 1978. The transfer of this test to BS

11、1881 allows its continued use in assessing the strength produced by a cement in a specified concrete. A procedure for mixing concrete based on that used in BS 1881 : Part 125 has been introduced as the reference procedure for mixing in this Part of BS 1881. The procedure described in BS 4550 : Secti

12、on 3.4 has been retained in this standard as an alternative procedure to allow comparison with previous tests (see annex C). It has become common practice to measure the slump of the concrete produced for this test to assess the effect of the cement on consistence. A procedure has been added to this

13、 standard (see 9.1). It has been shown that deviations from the specified raw materials, mixer, mixing procedure and curing conditions affect the slump result. As it may not always be possible to use the apparatus and materials specified in this British Standard, substitution of other apparatus and

14、materials is permitted, but any such deviation should be reported detailing, where possible, the effect of the deviation. A British Standard does not purport to include all necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Summary of pages

30、all be brought to the same temperature as the air in the mixing room, by storing them in the room for a sufficient time. The temperature throughout the entire test procedure shall be controlled about a mid-point of 208C with permitted variation as shown in table 2. The minimum relative humidity shal

31、l be as given in table 2. Table 2. Temperature and humidity conditions Situation Permitted temperature variation Minimum relative humidity 8C% Mixing room 25 0 Moist curing chamber 29 0 Water curing tank 2 Compression testing room 25 0 NOTE 1. A record should be kept for reference purposes of the ac

32、tual temperature and relative humidity conditions. NOTE 2. The high humidity required in moist air curing rooms is normally produced by spraying water as a fine aerosol. The bacterium Legionella pneumophila is widespread in nature and is present in water systems of many buildings. Scale in pipework

33、and chemical nutrients in the water supply may encourage growth of this organism which multiplies at temperatures above 208C. Inhaling infected aerosols is a known route for transmission of legionellosis. It is therefore advisable to maintain cold water supplies below 208C where possible and to stor

34、e hot water above 608C. Cold water supplies may be disinfected by chlorination to a least 5 mg/l free chlorine. Regular periodic checking for the presence of Legionella species in industrial water supplies is a sensible precaution. 8 Procedure for mixing NOTE. The procedure in this clause is based o

35、n that given in BS 1881 : Part 125. An alternative based on the procedure in BS 4550 : Section 3.4 is given in annex C. This alternative method is retained to allow comparison with historical records. Add in order, about half the coarse aggregate, the sand and the remaining coarse aggregate by sprea

36、ding them evenly in the pan. Start the mixer and run it for about 15 s. Continue mixing and add about half the water during the next 15 s. After mixing for a total of (120 5) s, stop the mixer and leave the contents covered for (300 10) s. Record the time of commencement and add the cement by spread

37、ing it in an even layer over the aggregate. Start the mixer and mix for about 30 s. Stop the mixer and immediately clean off any material adhering to the mixer blades into the pan. Without delay, recommence mixing and slowly add the remaining mixing water within the next 30 s. Continue mixing after

38、all materials have been added for a further (120 5) s. After completion of mixing, leave the contents of the mixer covered for (300 10) s then remix for (30 5) s. Transfer the whole of the batch onto the sampling tray. Ensure that no more than a light covering of slurry is left adhering to the mixer

39、. Turn the concrete over a few times with the trowel to remove any slight segregation. 9 Testing the concrete 9.1 Consistence The consistence shall be determined by carrying out a slump test in accordance with BS 1881 : Part 102. Testing shall be completed within 5 min of completion of remixing. BSI

40、 07-1999 3 BS 1881 : Part 131 : 1998 9.2 Strength 9.2.1 Batches Make batches of three, six, nine or 12 cubes. NOTE. For factory production control only, batches of three cubes may be made, one or two for testing at any of the specified ages. 9.2.2 Filling the moulds Place the moulds on a rigid horiz

41、ontal surface or on the vibrating table and approximately half fill with concrete, by means of the scoop, then compact. Repeat the operation to fill the moulds. 9.2.3 Compacting The specimens shall be compacted either by compacting bar or by vibrator. a) Using the compacting bar Compact each layer w

42、ith 35 strokes of the compacting bar. When compacting each layer, distribute the strokes of the compacting bar in a uniform manner over the cross-section of the mould, and ensure that the compacting bar does not forcibly strike the bottom of the mould when compacting the first layer nor penetrate si

43、gnificantly the first layer when compacting the second layer. b) Using the vibrator When compacting each layer by means of the vibrating hammer or vibrating table, use applied vibration of the minimum duration necessary to achieve full compaction of the concrete. Cease vibration as soon as the surfa

44、ce of the concrete becomes relatively smooth and has a glazed appearance. Record the duration of vibration. 9.2.4 Finishing After the top layer has been compacted, smooth it level with the top of the mould using the trowel, and wipe clean the outside of the mould. Complete the entire process within

45、15 min from the completion of mixing. 9.2.5 Storage of cubes 9.2.5.1 General requirements Immediately after preparation, place the moulds in a single layer on a level surface in the moist curing chamber. Cover the exposed tops of the cubes with an impervious sheet (e.g. of clean thin rubber or plast

46、ics, or lightly oiled steel) making contact with the upper edge of the mould. After (24 0.5) h mark the cubes for later identification and remove them from the moulds. Immediately submerge all the cubes in water, except those to be tested at one day, in the curing tank and arrange them in such a way

47、 that the temperature variation specified in table 2 is not exceeded. Leave the cubes in the curing tank until just prior to the testing. NOTE. If the concrete has not achieved sufficient strength to be handled without fear of damage after 24 h, delay the demoulding for a further period of 24 h but

48、state this fact in the test report. 9.2.5.2 Special requirements for testing at one day Mark and demould cubes to be tested at one day (15 to 20) min before testing and cover with a damp cloth so that they remain in the moist condition until tested. 9.2.6 Testing for strength 9.2.6.1 The age of each

49、 test is calculated from the time of adding the cement to the other materials. Test three cubes at an age selected from table 3 within the limits given. Table 3.
