3、004.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers procedures for obtaining represen-tative samples of materials to be shotcreted. The practicecovers sampling from stationary and truck mixers, volumetricand continuous mixing equipment, and bag and bulk delivery.1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI uni
4、ts are tobe regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI unitsare shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are notexact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used inde-pendently of the other. Combining values from the two systemsmay result in nonconformance with this pr
5、actice.2. Significance and Use2.1 This practice is used to obtain representative samples ofmaterials delivered to the shotcrete machine. These samplesare used to perform tests to determine compliance with thespecifications under which the material is furnished.3. Procedure3.1 Composite samples are r
6、equired by this practice, unlessspecifically made exempt by procedures governing the tests tobe performed, such as tests to determine uniformity of consis-tency and mixer efficiency. Procedures used to select thespecific test batches are not described in this practice, but it isrecommended that rand
7、om sampling be used to determineoverall specification compliance.3.2 The size of an individual sample shall be a minimum of25 lb 12 kg, the size of the composite sample shall be aminimum of 75 lb 35 kg. The composite sample shall be largeenough to perform the required tests.3.3 Sampling shall be per
8、formed as the shotcrete material isdelivered to the shotcrete machine. The procedures used insampling shall include the use of every precaution that willassist in obtaining samples that are truly representative of thenature and condition of the material sampled as follows:3.3.1 Sampling Dry Process
9、Shotcrete MaterialsSamplethe material by collecting two or more portions taken atregularly spaced intervals during discharge of the middle of thebatch or two or more random portions from the discharge ofcontinuous mixers. Combine the portions into one sample fortesting purposes. Do not obtain portio
10、ns of the compositesample from the first 15 % or the last 15 % of the discharge.3.3.2 Sampling Wet Process Shotcrete MaterialSample asdescribed in 3.3.1 within the following limits.3.3.2.1 The elapsed time between obtaining the first and lastportions of the composite sample shall be as short as poss
11、iblebut in no instance shall exceed 15 min.3.3.2.2 Start test for slump or air content, or both, within 5min after obtaining last portion of the composite.3.3.3 Alternative Procedure for Truck and StationaryMixersThe mixer shall be stopped and material portionsremoved by any suitable means at approx
12、imately equal dis-tances from the front and back of the drum. Composite theportions into one sample for testing. Do not obtain portionsfrom the very front and back of the drum. Sample wet processshotcrete material within the time limits described in 3.3.2.1and 3.3.2.2.3.3.4 Sampling Bagged Prepackag
13、ed MaterialRandomlyselect a single package, or more if required to perform thespecified tests, from a lot. A lot is the quantity normally placedon a pallet. In general, this quantity will weigh from 2000 to4000 lbs 900 to 1300 kg.3.3.5 Sampling Bulk Prepackaged MaterialSample thematerial at the poin
14、t of delivery to the shotcrete machine bycollecting three or more portions at regular intervals duringdischarge of the container or transportation unit. Obtain por-tions from the first, middle, and last third of the unit. Do notsample the first 15 % or last 15 % of the discharge. Combineportions for
