14、ducibility.Hazard warningsWhere skin is in contact with fresh concrete, skin irritations are likely to occurowing to the alkaline nature of cement. The abrasive effects of sand andaggregate in the concrete can aggravate the condition. Potential effects rangefrom dry skin, irritant contact dermatitis
15、, to severe burns in cases of prolongedexposure. Take precautions to avoid dry cement entering the eyes, mouth andnose when mixing mortar or concrete by wearing suitable protective clothing.Take care to prevent fresh concrete from entering boots and use workingmethods that do not require personnel t
16、o kneel in fresh concrete. Unlike heatburns, cement burns might not be felt until some time after contact with freshconcrete, so there might be no warning of damage occurring. If cement orconcrete enters the eye, immediately wash it out thoroughly with clean waterand seek medical treatment without d
17、elay. Wash wet concrete off the skinimmediately. Barrier creams may be used to supplement protective clothing butare not an alternative means of protection.Use of this documentIt has been assumed in the preparation of this British Standard that theexecution of its provisions will be entrusted to app

25、 in the test machine described in 6.1 is achieved.5 Test specimens5.1 GeneralTest specimens shall be broken portions of beams that have been tested inaccordance with BS EN 12390-5.Test specimens shall be free from cracks, chipped surfaces and other obviousdefects within the length to be tested.5.2 D
26、imensionsTest specimens shall have a minimum length of not less than the nominal widthof the beam plus 50 mm.5.3 Mass and densityIf specified, the mass and density of the specimen shall be obtained inaccordance with BS EN 12390-7.BRITISH STANDARD BS 1881-119:2011 BSI 2011 15.4 Storage of specimensDu
27、ring the interval between testing the specimens as beams in accordance withBS EN 12390-5 and testing the portions as cubes, the specimens shall be storedin water at a temperature of (20 2) C and shall be tested immediately onremoval from the water, while still wet.6 Procedure6.1 Placing the specimen
28、 in the machine6.1.1 Wipe the specimen, bearing surfaces of the machine and the auxiliaryplatens to remove any surface water, loose grit or other material.6.1.2 Place the specimen between the auxiliary platens so the load is applied tothe two sides adjacent to the uppermost surface as cast.6.1.3 Cen
29、tre the specimen carefully on the lower platen of the machine so thatit does not touch the jig supports. Align the upper auxiliary platen directly overthe lower platen with at least 25 mm of specimen extending beyond each of thetwo opposite edges.6.1.4 To ensure that the specimen and auxiliary plate
30、ns remain located correctlythroughout the test, mark the position of the upper platen on the specimen oruse a suitable jig similar to that in Figure 1. Do not use any packing betweenthe surfaces of the specimen and the auxiliary platens or between the auxiliaryplatens and the platens of the machine.

Afterthe application of the initial load, which does not exceed approximately 30% ofthe failure load, apply the load to the specimen without shock and increasecontinuously at the selected constant rate 10%, until no greater load can besustained.6.2.2 When usin
33、g manually controlled testing machines, correct any tendency forthe selected rate of loading to decrease as specimen failure is approached, byappropriate adjustment of the control.6.2.3 Record the maximum load applied to the specimen and the appearance ofthe concrete and any unusual features in the
