A lot may be one or more storage binsfilled consecutively.Alot may also be the contents of one or more transport units representing cement drawn from the same storagebin.3.1.2 reduced testing ratetest program that provides for the testing of only two samples from any given lot of sam

Significance and Use4.1 The sampling procedures described are intended for use in the procurement of samples of hydraulic cement after it has beenmanufactured and is ready to be offered for sale. They are not intende
24、d as sampling procedures for quality control purposes duringmanufacturing. The testing procedures outlined cover the amount of testing to be done and provide guidance for reporting onconformance or non-conformance of cements with requirements of purchase specifications.4.2 This practice is reference
25、d as the procedure for sampling natural cement (Specification C10/C10M), masonry cement(Specification C91C91/C91M), portland cement (Specification C150C150/C150M), blended hydraulic cement (SpecificationC595C595/C595M), expansive hydraulic cement (Specification C845C845/C845M), hydraulic cement base
26、d on a performancespecification (Specification C1157/C1157M), plastic stucco cement (Specification C1328C1328/C1328M), and mortar cement(Specification C1329C1329/C1329M), and hydraulic cement based on a performance specification (Specification C1157).4.3 Most building codes and construction specific
27、ations require that hydraulic cement to be used in the work meet the applicablerequirements of the relevant purchase specifications, such as Specifications C91C10/C10M, C91/C91M, C150C150/C150M,C595C595/C595M, C1157C1157/C1157M, C1328C1328/C1328M, C1329C1329/C1329M, or C845C845/C845M. If the code or
28、specification requires sampling of the manufactured cement, the provisions given in 4.4 are applicable. Not much cement is soldon the basis of such sampling and testing. A useful discussion of sampling and testing cement is contained in ACI 225.1R.4.4 The procedures covered in this practice should b
29、e done by or for purchasers of hydraulic cement who are using a code orspecification that requires sampling and testing to determine if the samples conform to the relevant acceptance specifications. Thetesting is done using specified methods to determine whether the samples yield test results that c
30、onform to the specification, andthe tests serve as a basis for acceptance or rejection of the lot of material sampled.4.5 It is neither intended nor required that all cements be tested using all the test methods referenced in Section 2.5. Kinds and Size of Samples and by Whom Taken5.1 A cement sampl
31、e secured from a conveyor, from bulk storage, or from a bulk shipment in one operation, shall be termeda “grab sample.”Asample obtained during a 10-min10 min interval using an automatic sampling device that continuously samples3 Detailed requirements for this sieve are given in Specification E11.C18
32、3/C183M 152a cement stream may also be termed a grab sample. Grab samples taken at prescribed intervals over a period of time may becombined to form a “composite sample representative of the cement produced during that period of time.5.2 All samples, whether grab or composite, shall have a mass of a
33、t least 5 kg (10 lb).10 lb.5.3 The purchaser may designate a representative to supervise the sampling, packing, and shipping of samples when it is sospecified in the purchase contract.5.4 Package the samples in moisture-proof, airtight containers numbered consecutively in the order in which the samp
34、les aretaken. The purchase contract shall state who will pay for the costs of sampling, packaging, shipping and testing the samples.NOTE 1Polyvinyl chloride sample containers, upon occasion, have been found to affect the air-entraining potential of a cement sample. The sameproblem might be experienc
35、ed with containers made from other plastics.6. Testing-Time Requirements for the Completion of Tests6.1 When tests of hydraulic cement are made at a laboratory other than that of the cement manufacturer, the cement samplingschedule, sample transportation time, and sample testing schedule must be coo
36、rdinated among the purchaser, the manufacturer, andthe testing laboratory so that the tests results will be available when required.6.2 The manufacturer of the cement shall make the cement available to be sampled for testing early enough before the time thetest results are needed so that at least th
37、e applicable time intervals listed in 6.3 exist.6.3 When this has been done, the testing laboratory shall provide test results not later than the indicated number of days aftersampling:Test Methods Time Interval, daysC109/C109M (1-day results),C114, C115, C151, C185,C191, C204, C451, C265, C266, C56

Sampling7.1 The cement may be sampled by any of the applic
40、able methods described in this section.7.1.1 From the Conveyor Delivering to Bulk StorageTake one grab sample, having a mass of at least 5 kg (10 lb),10 lb, atapproximately 6-h6 h intervals.7.1.2 Transfer SamplingSample cement in storage while the cement is being transferred from one bin to another.
41、 Take onegrab sample from the transfer stream for each 360 Mg (400 tons) 400 tons of cement, or fraction thereof, but take no less thantwo grab samples and combine them to produce a composite sample.7.1.3 Other Sampling MethodsWhen neither of the above sampling methods is applicable, samples may, wh
42、en authorized bythe purchaser, be taken by one of the following methods:7.1.3.1 From Bulk Storage at Points of DischargeWithdraw cement from the discharge openings in a steady stream untilsampling is completed. If a high circular silo is being sampled, take all samples from one opening. If the quant
43、ity of the cementin the bin exceeds 1100 Mg (1200 tons)1200 tons when low rectangular bins are being sampled, discharge openings employedin the sampling shall be such that for no opening shall the number of samples represent more than one half the contents of the binor more than 1800 Mg (2000 tons).
44、2000 tons. When sampling bulk storage at points of discharge, while the cement is flowingthrough the openings, take samples at such intervals so that at least two grab samples shall be secured for each 360 Mg (400tons)400 tons in the bin or silo.7.1.3.2 From Bulk Storage and Bulk Shipment by Means o
45、f a Slotted Tube SamplerWhen desired use a tube sampler designedfor cohesive and semi-cohesive powders and designed for the depth of the cement to be sampled does not exceed 2.1 m (7 ft),obtain samples using a slotted tube sampler similar to that sampled. An example of just one type is shown in Fig.
46、 1. It shall bebetween 1.5 and 1.8 m (5 and 6 ft) long and approximately 35 mm (138 in.) in outside diameter and consist of two polished brassC183/C183M 153telescopic tubes with registering slots that are opened or closed by rotation of the inner tube, the outer tube being provided witha sharp point
47、 to facilitate penetration. Take samples from well-distributed points and various depths of the cement so that thesamples taken will represent the cement involved.7.1.3.3 From Packaged Cement by Means of Tube SamplerInsert the sampler, shown inSample package cement using a Fig.2, diagonally into the
48、 tube sampler designed for cohesive and semi-cohesive powders and able to sample packaged cement fromthe valve of the bag and place the thumb over the air hole. Then withdrawcement bag. An example of just one type is shown inFig. 1the sampler. . Take one sample from a bag in each 4.5 Mg (5 tons)5 to
49、ns or fraction thereof.7.1.3.4 From Bulk Shipment of Car or Truck:(a) Single ShipmentIf only one car or truck is being loaded and the loading is continuous and all from the same source, takea 5-kg (10-lb)5 kg 10-lb sample. If not continuous or unknown, combine five or more portions from different points in the loadto form the test sample.(b) Multiple ShipmentsWhen the shipment consists of several cars or trucks loaded from the same source and on the sameday, sample the shipment at the rate of one sample for each 90 Mg (100 tons)100 tons
