BS EN 1097-10:2014EN 1097-10:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the reference method, used for type testing and in case of dispute, for determining the w
23、ater suction height of an aggregate in direct contact with a free water surface. For other purposes, in particular production control, other methods may be used, provided that an appropriate working relationship with the reference methods has been established. NOTE Capillary water uptake in an aggre
24、gate layer under the ground floor may cause moisture problems in the building. If the layer is thicker than the water suction height of the aggregate used, the layer is considered as a capillary barrier. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced

27、poses of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 water suction height level to which the water raises in a layer of aggregate in direct contact with a free water surface 3.2 maximal hygroscopic moisture content moisture content of aggregates in a sealed container just below 100
28、 % relative humidity 3.3 aggregate size designation of aggregate in terms of lower (d) and upper (D) sieve sizes Note 1 to entry: This designation accepts the presence of some particles which will be retained on the upper sieve (oversize) and some which will pass the lower sieve (undersize). 3.4 con
29、stant mass mass determined after successive weighings at least 1 h apart not differing by more than 0,1 % Note 1 to entry: In many cases constant mass can be achieved after a test portion has been dried for a pre-determined period in a specified oven at (110 5) C. Test laboratories can determine the
30、 time required to achieve constant mass for specific types and sizes of sample dependent upon the drying capacity of the oven used. 3.5 test portion sample used as a whole in a single test BS EN 1097-10:2014EN 1097-10:2014 (E) 6 4 Principle A test portion of dry aggregate in a vertical tube is broug
31、ht into direct contact with a free water surface, allowing the aggregate to take up water by suction. When equilibrium is reached, the water suction height is determined from the moisture content variation within the test portion. NOTE 1 The water suction height may be affected by the relative humid
32、ity. For this reason, the hygroscopic moisture content is simultaneously determined and the largest effect is recorded as the water suction height. NOTE 2 The water suction height may be affected by the compacted dry bulk density. For this reason, the compacted dry bulk density is determined and rec
33、orded. 5 Materials 5.1 Water, boiled and cooled before use NOTE Fresh tap water and demineralized water are both suitable as long as they are free from any impurity. 5.2 Reagents Saturated potassium sulfate solution, prepared by dissolving (12 1) g of reagent grade potassium sulfate by stirring in (
34、100 1) g of demineralized water at (40 1) C. Allow the solution to cool to room temperature and store in a closed bottle. NOTE The potassium sulfate solution is used to avoid condensation while determining the maximal hygroscopic moisture content (6.4), as water drops from the condensation may soak
35、the test sample. 6 Apparatus 6.1 All apparatus, unless otherwise stated, shall conform to the general requirements of EN 932-5. 6.2 Tube, made of transparent material with a height of not less than 200 mm and a diameter as specified in Table 1. NOTE Aggregates with a large value of water suction hei
36、ght may require a longer tube. The lower end of the tube wall shall be fitted with at least four slots, ensuring free movement of water into the tube. An example of slot design is shown in Figure 1. The tube shall be glued in the centre of the vessel (6.3). Take care not to clog the slots. The width
37、 of the slots should be smaller than d to prevent particles to flow into the vessel. 6.3 Vessel, made of transparent material. The internal bottom area of the vessel shall be large enough to have a minimum distance of 50 mm between the edge of the vessel and the wall of the tube. The vessel is fitte
38、d with a needle made of non-corrosive material, to indicate a water level (10 1) mm above the base of the vessel, as shown in Figure 1. 6.4 Moisture container and close fitting lid, made preferably of transparent material, with an internal bottom area as specified in Table 1 and an internal depth of
39、 at least 60 mm. The container is fitted with a heat insulated cover or placed inside the test cabinet (see 6.13). NOTE Vessels and containers can be circular or rectangular.
