3、 in May 2011.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers material in mat (or sheet) formfabricated from deformed steel bars to be used for thereinforcement of concrete. Mats consist of two layers of barsthat are assembled at right angles to each other. Mats areassembled by welding at the intersections.1.
4、2 This specification is applicable for orders in eitherinch-pound units (as Specification A184) or SI units (asSpecification A184M).1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the SI units areshown in brackets. The values stated in eac
5、h system are notexact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used inde-pendently of the other. Combining values from the two systemsmay result in nonconformance with this specification.2.

17、 been per-formed without problems, but care should be taken when weldingreinforcing bars with carbon equivalent levels above 0.55 %, in order toprevent cracking in the weld area.6. Mechanical Properties6.1 Mats shall be capable of withstanding a static load of150 lbf 670 N exerted perpendicular to t
18、he plane of the mattending to separate the bars with no apparent loosening whenapplied to one intersection of the connected bars.6.2 Number of Tests:6.2.1 One sample consisting of not less than two connec-tions on the same transverse member shall be tested forconformance with the provisions of 5.1.1
19、.3 and 6.1 from each75 000 ft27000 m2 of mats or fraction thereof.6.3 Test Methods:6.3.1 Tension test specimens for determining conformancewith 5.1.1.3 shall have a welded joint located approximately atthe center of the bar being tested, and the cross bar shall extendapproximately 1 in. 25 mm beyond
20、 each side. All unit stressdeterminations shall be based on the nominal area calculatedusing the nominal diameter specified.6.3.2 Tests of connections against separation shall be per-formed on an assembled mat by placing blocks under adeformed bar in the upper layer and applying the prescribedload u
21、pon the bar in the lower layer.7. Size, Dimensions, and Tolerances7.1 Size and Spacing DimensionsThe sizes, spacings,dimensions, and arrangement of the bar mats shall conform tothe design specified by the purchaser. Bars shall extend beyondexterior intersections a distance of not less than 1 in. 25
22、mm.The spacing of bars shall average that specified in the design,and the space between individual bars shall not vary more than14 in. 6 mm from that specified.7.2 Width and Length TolerancesThe overall length orwidth of the mats shall not be more than 1 in. 25 mm greateror less than the specified d
23、imension.8. Finish and Surface Condition8.1 The finished mats shall be free of injurious defects inmaterial or workmanship.8.2 Rust, surface seams, surface irregularities, or mill scaleshall not be cause for rejection provided the weight, dimen-sions including height of deformation, cross-sectional
24、area, andtensile properties of a hand wire-brushed test specimen are notless than the requirements of this specification.9. Rejection and Retests9.1 Fabricated mats that do not meet the requirements ofthis specification shall be rejected and reported to the manu-facturer within 5 working days from t
25、he receipt of samples bythe purchaser.9.2 In case a test specimen fails to meet the provisions of6.1, two additional samples shall be selected and tested. Allretest specimens shall meet the requirements of this specifica-tion.9.3 In case a test specimen fails to meet the provisions of5.1.1.3, all of
26、 the remaining bars on the transverse membershall be tested and the average of all tests (including theoriginal test) shall meet the requirements specified in 5.1.1.3.10. Inspection and Test Reports10.1 InspectionThe inspector representing the purchasershall have free entry, at all times while work
27、on the contract ofthe purchaser is being performed, to all parts of the manufac-turers plant that concern the fabrication of the mats ordered.The manufacturer shall afford the inspector all reasonablefacilities to satisfy the inspector that the mats are beingfurnished in accordance with this specifi
28、cation. All tests andinspection shall be made at the place of fabrication prior toshipment, unless otherwise specified, and shall be so conductedas not to interfere unnecessarily with fabricating operations.Inspection as to general workmanship shall be visual.10.2 Test Reports on Bar MaterialThe man
29、ufacturer shallsupply test reports showing that the material used in thefabrication of the mats as delivered has fulfilled the tension andbend test requirements of the specified type and grade de-scribed in Section 4. The reports shall show the manufacturerstest identification numbers, including the
30、 identity of the mate-rial.10.3 A material test report, certificate of inspection, orsimilar document printed from or used in electronic form froman electronic data interchange (EDI) transmission shall beregarded as having the same validity as a counterpart printed inthe certifiers facility. The con
31、tent of the EDI transmitteddocument must meet the requirements of the invoked ASTMstandard(s) and conform to any existing EDI agreement be-tween the purchaser and the supplier. Notwithstanding theabsence of a signature, the organization submitting the EDItransmission is responsible for the content o
32、f the report.NOTE 3The industry definition as invoked here is: EDI is thecomputer-to-computer exchange of business information in a standardformat such as ANSI ASC X12.10.4 For Government Procurement Only Except as oth-erwise specified in the contract, the contractor shall be respon-sible for the pe
33、rformance of all inspection and test require-ments specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in thecontract, the contractor shall be permitted to use ones own orany other suitable facilities for the performance of the inspec-tion and test requirements specified herein, unless disapprovedby the

The purchaser shallhave the right to perform any of the inspections and tests at thesame frequency as set forth in this specification where suchinspections are deemed necessary to assure that materialconforms to prescribed requirements.11. Rehearing11.1 Samples te
35、sted in accordance with this specificationthat represent rejected material shall be preserved for 2 weeksfrom the date rejection is reported to the manufacturer. In caseA184/A184M 0612of dissatisfaction with the results of the tests, the manufacturershall have the right to make claim for a hearing w
