8、e sometimes removed as part ofan assessment of the condition of masonry construction. Suchspecimens are commonly prepared for shipment to a laboratorywhere the specimens are assessed with visual techniques,petrographic techniques, or standard test methods. The processof selecting, removing, and ship

9、ping the specimens can have aneffect on test results. This practice provides procedures forselecting, removing, and shipping masonry specimens re-moved from existing construction.4.2 The selection and removal processes described in thispractice are primarily intended for walls. Selection and re-mova

10、l of masonry specimens from locations other than wallsrequires user judgment in order to obtain appropriate speci-mens.4.3 This practice also covers reporting of the selection,removal, and shipping processes. This information allowsinterested parties to assess the impact of these processes on testre

16、 C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States1NOTE 1Locations with different exposures, such as walls exposed torain and walls protected from rain may be used to distinguish differentsegments of construction to be examined.5.1.2 SamplingSelect specimens representative of the en-tire masonry

17、 construction or a portion thereof. Sample by oneor more of the following techniques:NOTE 2When sampling a portion of the entire construction consideraspects such as the orientation of the units (for example, stretcher, header,or soldier); location in the structure (for example, parapet, corbel, orq

18、uoin); or where different masonry units are blended to produce a range ofcolor, architectural effect within the entire construction; and requiredspecimen size to accommodate further testing.5.1.2.1 Random SamplingWithin the entire construction,or in a selected part of the entire construction, select

19、 specimensample locations based on a random sampling process. Desig-nate a numbering system associated with specimen locationsand randomly select numbers, or use a similar random sam-pling method.NOTE 3When specimens are to be removed for testing in accordancewith test methods that include requireme

20、nts for selection and sampling ofsamples, those requirements should be replaced with 5.1 of this practice.NOTE 4Practice E122 provides information on how to calculate thenumber and locations of samples necessary in order to estimate with aprescribed precision, a measure of quality representing all t

21、he samplingarea.5.1.2.2 Location-Specific SamplingSelect specimenssample locations specific to a particular installed location.5.1.2.3 Condition-Specific SamplingSelect specimensample locations specific to a physical condition of themasonry, such as units or mortar visually assessed to bedeteriorate

22、d or units or mortar visually assessed to be undam-aged.NOTE 5Selecting specimens for condition-specific sampling couldinclude considering masonry visually assessed to be deteriorated, ormasonry assessed to be undamaged, for examples.NOTE 6Sampling is useful for identification of differences in maso

23、nryconstruction in different locations or exposures, that is, the differencebetween the masonry on different building elevations, or the differencebetween masonry exposed to environmental or atmospheric conditionsand those not exposed. Under these circumstances, sampling should berepresentative of e

24、ach usage condition. For example, select masonryvisually considered to be in the best physical condition, in the worstphysical condition, and the most representative of the overall physicalcondition.5.2 IdentificationIdentify each specimen on the wall witha permanent marker and photograph before rem

25、oval. Do notmark on more than 10 % of any face of the specimen.Reference the marked specimen to the specific location wherethe specimen was obtained as recorded in 5.1.1.1.5.3 Pre-removal DocumentationPrior to removing speci-mens, thoroughly document the visual condition of the ma-sonry within the p

26、roposed sampling locations. Prepare a sketchof or photograph each sample location. Trace over any crackson the specimens with a felt-tipped marker and document thecracks maximum width(s). Trace along the outer limits of allother areas of distress using a felt tip pen and document theapproximate dept

27、h of the distress at each individual location, ifany.NOTE 7The pre-removal documentation will be used for judging thespecimens pre-removal condition and for comparative purposes todetermine if it is damaged during removal or shipping. Documenting thecondition of cracks and other distress, if any, wi

28、ll be used in judging if theextent and size of existing distress has increased during specimen removalor shipping.NOTE 8Distress is any damage not typically associated with soundmasonry. It may be manifested as spalling, chipping, crazing, stains,efflorescence, or other types of visually assessable

29、defects.5.4 Specimen Removal:5.4.1 Specimen SizeEach specimen shall be sufficient sizeto allow the proposed testing as specified in the test proce-dure(s).5.4.2 Specimen RemovalRemove existing masonry con-struction (units and mortar) at the perimeter of the specimen asnecessary to allow removal of a

30、ccessories (such as ties, jointreinforcement across wythes, and so forth), within the speci-men perimeter, without causing damage to the specimen.Remove adjacent masonry or adjoining construction by saw-cutting or by chiseling, as necessary, to obtain properly sizedspecimens. Do not use electric or

31、hydraulic impact equipmentthat damages the specimen. Remove the specimen from theconstruction and set on stable horizontal surface (such as theground, scaffolding, and so forth), taking care to avoid damageduring removal and transport to the stable surface.NOTE 9While removing the specimens, do not

32、detrimentally affect thestructural or serviceability performance of the remaining masonry andother related construction. Provide adequate shoring and weather protec-tion.NOTE 10Specimens with a nominal thickness of 100 mm 4 in. arenormally removed with a power-driven rotary saw with a diamond-tipped

33、blade having a diameter of 300 to 350 mm 12 to 14 in.NOTE 11One successful way to minimize damage to specimensremoved from existing masonry walls by way of cutting is to first makethe bottom cut and shim it to take up the weight of the specimen, thenmake the top cut, and finally make the two side cu

34、ts. These cuts shouldextend past the specimen corners a distance at least equal to the thicknessof the specimen and extend completely through the specimen at thecorners.5.4.3 Specimen Condition after Removal Move specimento site of preparation for shipping and document the speci-mens condition on al

35、l exposed sides as described in 5.3.NOTE 12The purpose of documenting the specimen condition afterremoval is to judge if the specimen has been damaged during the removalprocess.5.4.4 Assemblage Specimen Confinement Prior to TransportPrior to packing assemblage specimens for shipment, placerigid mate

36、rial cut to the specimens thickness and width plusany additional over-sizing to allow installation of the system ofconfinement, on the top and bottom of the specimen andconfine the specimen without damage during packaging andshipment. Record description of specimen confinement forshipping.NOTE 1319

37、mm 34 in. thick plywood pieces or other equally rigidmaterials have been successfully used for confinement plates.NOTE 14If a specimen is confined with steel banding straps appliedwith banding machines, or nylon or cotton shipping straps tightened witha self-contained ratchet, the specimen may be co

38、mpressed eccentrically,bending the specimen and possibly damaging it. To guard against this,specimens may be gently compressed longitudinally between two confin-ing plates cushioned by a compressible material such as Type I (0.07 MPa10 psi compressive strength at 10 % deformation) expanded polystyre

39、nesheets (EPS). Use one or more threaded rods installed through the platesand tighten to compress the cushioning material so it makes full contactC1532/C1532M 122with the entire specimen surface. If a single rod is used, it should belocated so that the perpendicular distance from the specimens geome

40、triccross-sectional centroid to the center of the rod is within5%ofthespecimens cross-sectional dimension in that direction. The nuts on thethreaded rod(s) should be tightened in a manner that applies uniformcompressive stress and minimizes eccentricity. See Fig. 1 for examples.Other methods of conf

41、inement are acceptable, as long as they imposed theconfinement concentrically without damaging the specimen and maintainthat confinement during shipment of the specimen.5.4.5 Condition of Exposed MasonryDocument the con-dition of the exposed construction in the resultant hole prior topatching, if an

42、y. Note the type, dimensions, and construction ofthe underlying masonry. Use sketches and photographs toassist with documenting the condition.NOTE 15A list of items that should be noted in the underlyingmasonry, but not inclusive of, includes: air space dimensions, insulation,joint reinforcement, co

43、llar joints, and ties.5.5 Shipment:5.5.1 Protect each specimen on all sides with suitablematerial to prevent damage to the specimens during shipment.NOTE 16Past experience has shown wrapping the specimens in a 25mm 1-in. thick layer of packaging foam, shipping pellets, sheet foam, orbubble wrap prio

44、r to shipping has provided adequate protection ofspecimens during shipment.5.5.2 Completely encase one or more specimens and pack-aging material in crates suitable to protect the specimensduring shipment. Completely fill all space within the crate toprevent movement of the specimens within the crate

45、. Clearlymark the crates, “Handle With Care.”NOTE 17Successful past shipping of specimens has been accom-plished in crates constructed of plywood thicker than 16 mm 58 in.5.5.3 Document the condition of the specimens after receiptat their final destination as described in 5.4.3.6.
