21、Summary of Test Method4.1 A sample of fresh pervious concrete is placed andconsolidated in a standard measure. The concrete is consoli-dated using a standard Proctor hammer. The density and voidcontent of the pervious concrete are calculated based on themeasured mass of the consolidated concrete spe
22、cimen, thevolume of the measure, and the total mass of materials batched.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a procedure for determiningthe density and void content of freshly mixed pervious con-crete.5.2 This test method is applicable to pervious concretemixtures containing coarse
23、aggregate with a nominal maxi-mum size of 25 mm 1 in. or smaller.5.3 The measured fresh density may be used as verificationof mixture proportions.5.4 This method uses a standard consolidation procedure tomeasure fresh density and void content of a pervious concretemixture as delivered. Test results
24、are not intended to representthe density and void content of the in-place pervious concrete.This method shall not be used to determine the in-place voidcontent or yield of the pervious concrete.6. Apparatus6.1 BalanceA balance or scale accurate to 50 g 0.1 lb orto within 0.3 % of the test load, whic

The range of use shall beconsidered to extend from the mass of the empty measure tothe mass of the measure filled with concrete having an assumeddensity of 2600 kg/m3160 lb/ft3.6.2 Standard Proctor HammerAdevice used to compact apervious concret

The volume of the measure shall be determined as describedin Test Method
27、 C29/C29M. The top rim of the container shallbe plane within 0.3 mm 0.01 in. (See Note 3).NOTE 2The metal should not be attacked readily by cement paste.However, a reactive material such as aluminum alloy may be used if, asa result of an initial reaction, a surface film is formed that protects theme
28、tal against further corrosion. The measuring bowl of an air meterconforming to Test Method C231 can meet the requirements for themeasure.NOTE 3The top rim is satisfactorily plane if a 0.3 mm 0.01-in. wirefeeler gauge cannot be inserted between the rim and a piece of 6 mm14-in. or thicker plate glass
29、 laid over the top of the measure.6.4 Strike-Off PlateAflat rectangular metal plate at least 6mm 14 in. thick or a glass or acrylic plate at least 12 mm 12in. thick with length and width that are at least 50 mm 2 in.greater than the diameter of the measure with which it is to beused. The edges of th
30、e plate shall be straight within a toleranceof2mm116 in.6.5 ScoopOf a size large enough so each amount ofpervious concrete obtained from the sampling receptacle isrepresentative and small enough so that the concrete is notspilled during placement in the measure.7.

32、C192M.7.2.1 Start the test for density within 5 min after obtainingthe sample.7.3 The elapsed time between obtaining the first and finalportions of the composite sample shall not exceed 15 min.7.3.1 Transport the individual samples to the place wherefresh concrete tests are to be performed. Combine
33、and remixthe samples with a shovel the minimum amount necessary toensure uniformity and compliance with the maximum timelimits specified in 7.3.2. Protect the composite sample from thesun, wind, and other sources of rapid evaporation.7.3.2 Start the test for density within 5 min after obtainingthe f
34、inal portion of the composite sample.8. Procedure8.1 Place the measure on a flat, level surface free fromvibration. Moisten the inside of the measure before placingpervious concrete. Remove any standing water from thebottom of the container using a moistened sponge. Place theC1688/C1688M 10a2perviou
35、s concrete in the measure in two layers of approxi-mately equal thickness using the scoop described in 6.5.During filling of the measure, move the scoop around theperimeter of the opening to ensure an even distribution of theconcrete with minimal segregation. Drop the hammer verti-cally 20 times per
36、 layer at the full 305 mm 12 in. drop height.For each layer, distribute the position of the tamper so that theentire surface area of the pervious concrete in the measure isconsolidated equally. Before consolidating the final layer, fillthe measure to overflowing. After completion of consolidation,th
37、e measure must contain about 3 mm 18 in. of excesspervious concrete protruding above the top of the measure. Ifafter 10 hammer drops to the final layer it appears that therewill be insufficient concrete, add a small quantity of concrete tocorrect the deficiency. If after 10 hammer drops to the final
38、layer it appears that there will be too much concrete in themeasure, remove a representative portion of excess concretewith a trowel or scoop. Complete the consolidation of the finallayer.8.2 Strike OffAfter consolidation, strike off the top sur-face of the concrete and finish it flat with the strik
39、e-off plate sothat the concrete surface is level with the top of the measure.Accomplish the strike-off by pressing the strike-off plate on thetop surface of the measure to cover about two thirds of thesurface and withdrawing the plate with a sawing motion tostrike off the area originally covered. Th
40、en place the plate onthe top of the measure to cover the same two thirds of thesurface and advance it with a vertical pressure and a sawingmotion to cover the whole surface of the measure; continue toadvance plate until it slides completely off the measure.Several final sawing-motion strokes with th
41、e edge of the plate,which has been inclined to the top of the measure, will producea flat finished surface.8.3 Cleaning and WeighingAfter strike-off, clean excessconcrete from the exterior of the measure and determine themass of the concrete and measure to an accuracy consistentwith the requirements

Precision and Bias10.1 Repeatability testing was performed by six laboratoriesusing pervious concrete mixtures proportioned using localmaterials. Each laboratory prepared three batches and per-formed tw
44、o replicate tests per batch. The range of density offresh pervious concrete was from 1750 to 2000 kg/m3109 to125 lb/ft3 (See Note 4).NOTE 4Round robin testing was performed using the following sixconsolidation methods:Proctor Hammer-2 equal layers, 20 times per layerMarshall Hammer-2 equal layers, 5
45、 times per layerMarshall Hammer-2 equal layers, 10 times per layerASTM C29 Jigging-2 equal layers, 50 drops per layer as per TestMethod C29/C29MASTM C138 Rodding Method-2 equal layers, 25 times per layerNo Consolidation-Fill the empty unit weight bucket.Of the six consolidation methods evaluated, th
46、e method using the ProctorHammer produced a high degree of repeatability, employed a straightfor-ward process, and was not physically demanding due to the lower weightsas compared to the Marshall Hammer.10.1.1 The single-operator standard deviation of density offreshly mixed pervious concrete has be
47、en found to be 22kg/m31.4 lb/ft3.10.1.2 The multi-operator standard deviation has not beendeveloped. The reproducibility of this test method is beingdetermined and will be available on or before October 1, 2013.10.2 This test method has no bias because the density ofpervious concrete is defined only
