17、to remain constant for all batches made using identical compo-nent ingredients and proportions.4. 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 (Procedure A) or astandard Ma
18、rshall hammer (Procedure B). The density andvoid content of the pervious concrete are calculated based onthe measured mass of the consolidated concrete specimen, thevolume of the measure, and the total mass of materials batched.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a procedure for det
19、erminingthe density and void content of freshly mixed pervious con-crete.5.2 This test method is applicable to pervious concretemixtures containing coarse 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
20、.5.4 This method uses a standard consolidation procedure tomeasure fresh density and void content of a pervious concretemixture as delivered. Test results 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-pla
21、ce voidcontent or yield of the pervious concrete.5.5 The fresh density and void content calculated from thistest method may be different when comparing the results fromProcedure A with Procedure B. Results are only comparablewhen obtained using the same procedure (Procedure A or B).6. Apparatus6.1 B

The volume of the measure shall be determined as describedin Test Method C29/C29M. The top rim of the container shallbe
25、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 themetal against further corrosion. The measuring bow
26、l of an air meterconforming to Test Method C231/C231M can meet the requirements forthe measure.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 laid over the top of the measure.6.5 Stri

Sampling7.1 For field placements, obtain the sample of freshly-mixedpervi
29、ous concrete in accordance with Practice C172/C172M.7.1.1 Start the test for density within 5 min after obtainingthe final portion of the composite sample.7.2 For laboratory testing, obtain the sample of freshly-mixed pervious concrete in accordance with Practice C192/C192M.7.2.1 Start the test for
30、density within 5 min after obtainingthe 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 thepervious concr
31、ete in the measure in two layers of approxi-mately equal thickness using the scoop described in 6.6.During filling of the measure, move the scoop around theperimeter of the opening to ensure an even distribution of theconcrete with minimal segregation. For Procedure A, drop thehammer vertically 20 t
32、imes per layer at the full 305 mm 12in. drop height. For Procedure B, drop the hammer vertically10 times per layer at the full 457 mm 18 in. drop height. Foreach layer, distribute the position of the tamper so that theentire surface area of the pervious concrete in the measure isconsolidated equally
33、. Before consolidating the final layer, fillthe measure to overflowing. After completion of consolidation,the measure must contain about 3 mm 18 in. of excesspervious concrete protruding above the top of the measure. Ifafter half the number of specified hammer drops to the finallayer it appears that
34、 there will be insufficient concrete, add asmall quantity of concrete to correct the deficiency. If after halfC1688/C1688M 14a2the number of specified hammer drops to the final layer itappears that there will be too much concrete in the measure,remove a representative portion of excess concrete with
35、 atrowel or scoop. Complete the consolidation of the final layer.8.2 Strike OffAfter consolidation, strike off the top surfaceof the concrete and finish it flat with the strike-off plate so thatthe concrete surface is level with the top of the measure.Accomplish the strike-off by pressing the strike
36、-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. Then place the plate onthe top of the measure to cover the same two thirds of thesurface and advance it with a vertical pressur
37、e 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 the edge of the plate,which has been inclined to the top of the measure, will producea flat finished surface.8.3 Cleaning and W
