9、This guide provides information that, if implemented,will reduce efflorescence potential in new masonry walls.However, its implementation will not always completely pre-vent efflorescence.4.2 This guide may be augmented by related informationcontained in the appendixes of Specification C270, the add

Principles of Efflorescence5.1 Efflorescence is directly related to the quantity ofwater-soluble compounds within, or exposed to, the wall; andto the quantity of water exposed to these compounds. Sinceneither water n

11、or water-soluble compounds can be completelyeliminated from an exterior masonry wall, the potential forefflorescence is reduced by reducing water-soluble compoundsand water within the wall.5.2 While water penetration is reduced through properdesign and construction, water can penetrate into masonryw

12、alls through cracks and separations in the surface and the topof the wall. It can penetrate voids in the mortar joints or theinterface between the unit and mortar, and, to a lesser degreethrough the masonry units and the hardened mortar.5.3 If a significant amount of water penetrates the wall, thewa

13、ter will dissolve water-soluble compounds that may exist inthe masonry units, mortar components, grout, admixtures orother secondary sources, and may deposit them on the exteriorsurface of the masonry when it migrates to the wall surface1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C15 on

17、Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.1through evaporation. Deposits may also form within themasonry resulting in cryptoflorescence.5.4 The most common efflorescence deposits contain two ormore of the following: potas

18、sium, sodium, calcium, sulfates,carbonates, bicarbonates, chlorides, and hydroxides.5.5 Some water-soluble compounds deposited on the sur-face of masonry can chemically react to form compounds thatare not water-soluble. Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) deposits onmasonry are a fairly common example. They a

19、re a result ofreaction between the efflorescence compound calcium hydrox-ide and carbon dioxide after the calcium hydroxide is depositedon the surface of the masonry and is exposed to the air.5.6 Under some circumstances, particularly when exteriorcoatings are present, efflorescence compounds can be

20、 depos-ited below the surface of the masonry units. This condition iscalled cryptoflorescence. When cryptoflorescence occurs, theforces resulting from its confinement can cause disintegrationof the masonry surfaces.6. Reduction of Efflorescence Potential in New MasonryWalls6.1 Efflorescence on a new

21、 masonry wall is reduced whenwater penetration of the wall is minimized; when water thatpenetrates or condenses in the wall is quickly drained from thewall; when contact between dissimilar masonry units isavoided; and when potential efflorescence compounds in thewall materials are minimized.6.2 The

22、amount of water from wind-driven rain that is ableto penetrate a masonry wall is minimized by:6.2.1 Good bond and full contact between masonry unitsand mortar. This condition is achieved by using mortar that iscompatible with the masonry units; completely filled head andbed mortar joints in solid un

23、it masonry; completely filled faceshells head and bed joints in hollow unit masonry; compactedconcave, V, or grapevine mortar joints on the exterior face ofthe wall; cold weather construction practices that preventmasonry materials from freezing; and by hot weather construc-tion practices that preve

24、nt newly placed mortar from dryingrapidly.6.2.2 Construction practices that protect the tops and sidesof uncompleted walls and openings from rain or snow duringconstruction.6.2.3 The use of flashing at the intersection of roofing andmasonry walls.6.2.4 The use of sills, copings, and chimney caps of

25、solidmasonry units, stone, reinforced concrete, or corrosion resis-tant metal. To be most effective, masonry, stone, and concretesills, copings, and chimney caps should project beyond the faceof the wall; have drips that are at least 1 in. (25 mm) from theface of the wall, and have functional flashi

26、ng and weep holes.In addition, all sills, copings, and chimney caps should besloped a minimum of 1+4; be mechanically anchored to thewall, and should have properly sized, located, and sealedmovement joints when necessary.6.2.5 Properly sized, located, and sealed movement joints inwall and around ope

27、nings in wall.6.2.6 Overhangs to protect the wall from rain.6.2.7 Utilization of compatible water repellent coating onconcrete masonry walls or integral water repellent admixturesin concrete masonry units.6.3 Water that penetrates a masonry wall is quickly drainedout of the wall by:6.3.1 Unobstructe

28、d drainage in air space of drainage walls.6.3.2 Functional, unpunctured flashing and weep holes atbase of wall above grade; above openings in wall, shelf angles,lintels, wall-roofing intersections, chimneys, and bay windows,and below window sills and copings. The flashing should beextended beyond th

29、e exterior face of the wall. The flashingshould have end dams at its discontinuous ends, and properlysealed splices and laps at its joints.6.4 Contact between dissimilar masonry units is avoided by:6.4.1 The use of cavity walls with unobstructed 2 in. (50mm) minimum drainage air space to separate th

30、e exteriormasonry wythe from the backup wall consisting of a dissimilarmasonry unit.6.4.2 The use of flashing between masonry wall and sills,copings, and chimney caps of a dissimilar material.6.4.3 The use of flashing or separator between changes inmaterials in wall.6.5 Potential efflorescence compo

31、unds in the wall materialscan be minimized by:6.5.1 Preconstruction testing of all masonry materials,water, cleaning agents, and admixtures to be used in a masonrywall to evaluate their potential to contribute to efflorescence.The results of these tests should be evaluated together with theinfluence

32、 of construction practices and design in predictingefflorescence potential in masonry walls. Available precon-struction tests include: Test Methods C67 efflorescence test forbrick; chemical analysis of cements to determine water solublealkali (Na2OK2O) content; chemical analysis of hydrated limeto d

33、etermine calcium sulfate content; and chemical analysis ofsand, water, admixtures and cleaning agents to determinealkali, chloride, and sulfate content. Ion chromatography is achemical analytical technique that can be used to performpreconstruction testing of masonry materials. Presently, there isno

34、 ASTM efflorescence test for concrete masonry units ormortar. The potential for efflorescence increases with increas-ing amounts of water-soluble alkali, chlorides, and sulfates inthe masonry wall materials.6.5.2 Storage and protection of all masonry materials priorto use to prevent contact with dis

35、similar materials and toprotect materials from moisture.6.5.3 Protection of all masonry materials during transporta-tion when there is a probability of contamination from roadsalts, fertilizers, and airborne contaminants.6.5.4 Utilization of proper cleaning materials and proce-dures on new masonry w
