1、Designation: D6684 04 (Reapproved 2010)D6684 18Standard Specification forMaterials and Manufacture of Articulating Concrete Block(ACB) Revetment Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6684; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption

2、or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope Scope*1.1 The purpose of this Standardstandard is to provide specifications for

3、articulating concrete block (ACB) revetment systemstructural components, material composition and physical properties, manufacturing methods and testing requirements.1.2 UnitsThe values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses aremathematical convers

4、ions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. Reporting or use ofunits other than inch-pound shall not be regarded as non-conformance with this standard.1.2.1 The gravitational system of inch-pound units is used when dealing with inch-pound units. In the sy

5、stem, the pound (lbf)represents a unit of force (weight), while the units for mass is slugs. The slug unit is not given, unless dynamic (F = ma)calculations are involved.1.2.2 The SI units presented for apparatus are substitutions of the inch-pound units, other similar SI units should be acceptablep

6、roviding they meet the technical requirements established by the inch-pound apparatus.1.2.3 It is common practice in the engineering/construction profession to concurrently use pounds to represent both a unit ofmass (lbm) and of force (lbf). This practice implicitly combines two separate systems of

7、units; the absolute and the gravitationalsystems. It is scientifically undesirable to combine the use of two separate sets of inch-pound units within a single standard. Asstated, this standard includes the gravitational system of inch-pound units and does not use/present the slug unit of mass. Howev

8、er,the use of balances and scales recording pounds of mass (lbm) or recording density in lbm/ft3 shall not be regarded asnonconformance with this standard.1.2.4 The terms density and unit weight are often used interchangeably. Density is mass per unit volume, whereas unit weightis force per unit vol

9、ume. In this standard, density is given only in SI units. After the density has been determined, the unit weightis calculated in SI or inch-pound units, or both.1.2.5 Calculations are done using only one set of units; either SI or gravitational inch-pound. Other units are permissibleprovided appropr

10、iate conversion factors are used to maintain consistency of units throughout the calculations, and similarsignificant digits or resolution, or both are maintained.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the

11、 user of this standard to establish appropriate safety safety, health, and healthenvironmental practices and determine theapplicability of regulatory requirementslimitations prior to use.1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standar

23、 Terminology D653.3.2 Definitions:Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 articulating concrete block (ACB) revetment system, na matrix of interconnected concrete block units sufficient forerosion protection. Unitsprotection, which are connected by geometric interlock and/or cables, geo

24、textiles, or geogrids, andtypically include a geotextile underlay for subsoil retention.4. Significance and Use4.1 An articulating concrete block system is comprised of a matrix of individual concrete blocks placed together to form anerosion-resistant revetmentsystem with specific hydraulic performa

25、nce characteristics. These systems in practice are commonlyreferred to as ACB revetment systems. The system includes a filter layer compatible with the subsoil which allows infiltration andexfiltration to occur while providing particle retention. The filter layer may be comprised of a geotextile, pr

26、operly graded granularmedia, or both. The blocks within the matrix shall be dense and durable, and the matrix shall be flexible and porous.4.2 Articulating concrete block systems are used to provide erosion protection to underlying soil materials from the forces offlowing water. The term “articulati

27、ng,” as used in this Standard, implies the ability of individual blocks of the system to conformto changes in subgrade while remaining interconnected by virtue of geometric interlock and/or additional system components suchas cables, ropes, geotextiles, or geogrids.4.3 The definition of articulating

28、 concrete block systems does not distinguish between interlocking and non-interlocking blockgeometries, between cable-tied and non- cable-tied systems, between vegetated and non-vegetated systems or between methods ofmanufacturing or placement. Furthermore, the definition does not restrict or limit

29、the block size, shape, strength, or longevity;however, guidelines and recommendations regarding these factors are incorporated into this Standard. Block systems are availablein either open-cell or closed-cell configurations.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 Materials Specifications: Cementitious Mater

Non-cabled systems may also be assembled on, and/or glued to, a high-strength geotextile fabric which is used to carrythe articulated block mattress.5.6.2 Cabled Sys

43、temCabled articulating concrete block revetment systems can be assembled into mattresses, typically up to480 square feet (45 square meters). Whole mat production can occur at the block plant or at the project. The individual blocks aretypically placed in their respective matrix positions on a work s

44、urface, and the cables or ropes are inserted through the core holesin the block. Once the blocks have been assembled into a mattress, the ends of the cable or rope are secured as necessary basedon the characteristics of the system. Wetcast mattresses can be poured with the cables or ropes integral t
