1、Designation: C 172 08Standard Practice forSampling Freshly Mixed Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 172; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses

2、 indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers procedures for obtaining represen-tative samples of f

3、resh concrete as delivered to the project siteon which tests are to be performed to determine compliancewith quality requirements of the specifications under which theconcrete is furnished (Note 1). The practice includes samplingfrom stationary, paving and truck mixers, and from agitatingand nonagit

4、ating equipment used to transport central-mixedconcrete.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to inch-pound units that are provided for informa-tion only and are not considered standard.NOTE 1Composite samples are

5、 required by this practice, unlessspecifically excepted by procedures governing the tests to be performedsuch as tests to determine uniformity of consistency and mixer efficiency.Procedures used to select the specific test batches are not described in thispractice, but it is recommended that random

6、sampling be used todetermine overall specification compliance.1.3 This practice also covers the procedures to be used forpreparing a sample of concrete for further testing where it isdesirable or necessary to remove the aggregate larger than adesignated size. This removal of larger aggregate particl

7、es ispreferably accomplished by wet-sieving.1.4 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material and shall not be consideredas requirements of the practice.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its u

8、se. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Significance and Use3.1 This practice is intended to provide standard require-ments and procedures for sampling freshly mixed concretefrom different containers used in the produ

10、ction or transporta-tion of concrete. The detailed requirements as to materials,mixtures, air content, temperature, number of specimens,slump, interpretation of results, and precision and bias are inspecific test methods.4. Sampling4.1 The elapsed time shall not exceed 15 min. betweenobtaining the f

11、irst and final portions of the composite sample.4.1.1 Transport the individual samples to the place wherefresh concrete tests are to be performed or where test speci-mens are to be molded. They shall be combined and remixedwith a shovel the minimum amount necessary to ensureuniformity and compliance

12、 with the maximum time limitsspecified in 4.1.2.4.1.2 Start tests for slump, temperature, and air contentwithin 5 min after obtaining the final portion of the compositesample. Complete these tests expeditiously. Start moldingspecimens for strength tests within 15 min after fabricating thecomposite s

Procedure5.1 Size of SampleMake the samples to be used forstrength tests a minimum of 28 L (1 ft3). Smaller samples arenot prohibited for routine

14、air content, temperature, and slumptests. The size of the samples shall be dictated by the maximumaggregate size.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C09 on Concreteand ConcreteAggregates and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee C09.60 onTesting Fresh Concrete.Current e

17、ve, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, United States.5.2 The procedures used in sampling shall include the use ofevery precaution that will assist in obtaining samples that aretruly representative of the nature and condition of concretesampled as follows:NOTE 2Sampling should normally be

18、 performed as the concrete isdelivered from the mixer to the conveying vehicle used to transport theconcrete to the forms; however, specifications may require other points ofsampling, such as the discharge of a concrete pump.5.2.1 Sampling from Stationary Mixers, Except PavingMixersSample the concre

19、te by collecting two or moreportions taken at regularly spaced intervals during discharge ofthe middle portion of the batch. Obtain these portions withinthe time limit specified in Section 4. Combine into onecomposite sample for testing purposes. Do not obtain portionsof the composite sample from th

20、e very first or last part of thebatch discharge (Note 3). Perform sampling by passing areceptacle completely through the discharge stream, or bycompletely diverting the discharge into a sample container. Ifdischarge of the concrete is too rapid to divert the completedischarge stream, discharge the c

21、oncrete into a container ortransportation unit sufficiently large to accommodate the entirebatch and then accomplish the sampling in the same manner asgiven above. Take care not to restrict the flow of concrete fromthe mixer, container, or transportation unit so as to causesegregation. These require

22、ments apply to both tilting andnontilting mixers.NOTE 3No samples should be taken before 10 % or after 90 % of thebatch has been discharged. Due to the difficulty of determining the actualquantity of concrete discharged, the intent is to provide samples that arerepresentative of widely separated por

23、tions, but not the beginning and theend of the load.5.2.2 Sampling from Paving MixersSample the concreteafter the contents of the paving mixer have been discharged.Obtain samples from at least five different portions of the pileand then composite into one sample for test purposes. Avoidcontamination

24、 with subgrade material or prolonged contactwith and absorptive subgrade. To preclude contamination orabsorption by the subgrade, sample the concrete by placingthree shallow containers on the subgrade and discharging theconcrete across the container. Combine the samples so ob-tained into one composi

25、te sample for test purposes. Thecontainers shall be of a size sufficient to provide a compositesample size that is in agreement with the maximum aggregatesize.NOTE 4In some instances, the containers may have to be supportedabove the subgrade to prevent displacement during discharge.5.2.3 Sampling fr

26、om Revolving Drum Truck Mixers orAgitatorsSample the concrete by collecting two or moreportions taken at regularly spaced intervals during discharge ofthe middle portion of the batch. Take the samples so obtainedwithin the time limit specified in Section 4 and combine theminto one composite sample f

27、or test purposes. In any case do notobtain samples until after all of the water and any admixtureshave been added to the mixer; also do not obtain samples fromthe very first or last portions of the batch discharge (Note 3).Sample by repeatedly passing a receptacle through the entiredischarge stream

28、or by completely diverting the discharge intoa sample container. Regulate the rate of discharge of the batchby the rate of revolution of the drum and not by the size of thegate opening.5.2.4 Sampling from Open-Top Truck Mixers, Agitators,Nonagitating Equipment, or Other Types of Open-TopContainersTa

29、ke samples by whichever of the proceduresdescribed in 5.2.1, 5.2.2,or5.2.3 is most applicable under thegiven conditions.6. Additional Procedure for Large Maximum SizeAggregate Concrete6.1 When the concrete contains aggregate larger than thatappropriate for the size of the molds or equipment to be us

30、ed,wet-sieve the sample as described below except performdensity (unit weight) tests for use in yield computations on thefull mix.NOTE 5The effect of wet-sieving on the test results should beconsidered. For example, wet-sieving concrete causes the loss of a smallamount of air due to additional handl

31、ing. The air content of the wet-sievedfraction of concrete is greater than that of the total concrete because thelarger size aggregate which is removed does not contain air. The apparentstrength of wet-sieved concrete in smaller specimens is usually greaterthan that of the total concrete in larger a

32、ppropriate size specimens. Theeffect of these differences may need to be considered or determined bysupplementary testing for quality control or test result evaluation pur-poses.6.2 Definition:6.2.1 wet-sieving concretethe process of removing aggre-gate larger than a designated size from the fresh c

33、oncrete bysieving it on a sieve of the designated size.6.3 Apparatus:6.3.1 Sieves, as designated, conforming to SpecificationE11.6.3.2 ReceptacleA container of suitable size having anonabsorbent surface.6.3.3 Wet-Sieving EquipmentEquipment for wet-sievingconcrete shall be a sieve as noted in 6.3.1 o

34、f suitable size andconveniently arranged and supported so that one can shake itrapidly by either hand or mechanical means. Generally, ahorizontal back and forth motion is preferred. The equipmentshall be capable of rapidly and effectively removing thedesignated size of aggregate.6.3.4 Hand ToolsShov

35、els, hand scoops, plastering trow-els, and rubber gloves as required.6.4 Procedure:6.4.1 Wet-SievingAfter sampling the concrete, pass theconcrete over the designated sieve and remove and discard theaggregate retained. This shall be done before remixing. Shakeor vibrate the sieve by hand or mechanica

36、l means until noundersize material remains on the sieve. Mortar adhering to theaggregate retained on the sieve shall not be wiped from itbefore it is discarded. Place only enough concrete on the sieveat any one time so that after sieving, the thickness of the layerof retained aggregate is not more t

37、han one particle thick. Theconcrete which passes the sieve shall fall into a batch pan ofsuitable size which has been dampened before use or onto aclean, moist, nonabsorbent surface. Scrape any mortar adher-ing to the sides of the wet-sieving equipment into the batch.After removing the larger aggreg

38、ate particles by wet-sievingC172082remix the batch with a shovel the minimum amount necessaryto ensure uniformity and proceed testing immediately.7.
