Significance and Use4.1 This guide provides information that, if implemented,will reduce efflorescence potential in

10、new unit pavementsystems. However, its implementation will not always com-pletely prevent efflorescence.4.2 This guide may be augmented by related informationcontained in the appendixes of Specification C270, the addi-tional material listed in Appendix X1 in this standard, andother publications.5. P

11、rinciples of Efflorescence5.1 Efflorescence is directly related to the quantity ofwater-soluble compounds within, or exposed to, a unit pave-ment system; and to the quantity of water exposed to thesecompounds. Water-soluble compounds or water causing efflo-rescence may be from adjacent surfaces or b

12、eneath the pave-ment system: for example, fertilizer in runoff from adjacentflower beds or lawns; ground water evaporating through thewearing course; and water from sprinkler systems and roofs.Since neither water nor water-soluble compounds can becompletely eliminated from unit pavement systems, the

13、 poten-tial for efflorescence is reduced by reducing water-solublecompounds and water retained within the unit pavementsystem.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C15 onManufactured Masonry Units and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeC15.05 on Masonry Assemblies.Cu

15、Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States15.2 Water can penetrate through joints in the surface of unitpavement systems. It can penetrate voids in the mortar joints orthe interface between the paver unit and jointing material.5.3 If a significant amount of water penetrates a unitpavement system, th

16、e water will dissolve water-soluble com-pounds that may exist in the paver units, mortar components,grout, setting bed, concrete slab, admixtures or other secondarysources, and may deposit them on the exterior surface of theunit pavement system when it migrates to the surface andthrough evaporation.

17、 The presence of a concrete slab belowsand setting beds in unit pavement system allows water toremain on top of the slab where it can more readily dissolvewater-soluble compounds in the concrete.5.4 The most common efflorescence deposits contain two ormore of the following: potassium, sodium, calciu

18、m, sulfates,carbonates, bicarbonates, chlorides, and hydroxides.5.5 Some water-soluble compounds deposited on the sur-face of unit pavement systems can chemically react to formcompounds that are not water-soluble. Calcium carbonate(CaCO3) deposits on unit pavement system are a fairly com-mon example

19、. They are a result of reaction between theefflorescence compound calcium hydroxide and carbon dioxideafter the calcium hydroxide is deposited on the surface of thepavement and is exposed to the air.5.6 Under some circumstances, particularly when exteriorcoatings are present, efflorescence compounds

20、 can be depos-ited below the surface of the paver units. This condition iscalled cryptoflorescence. When cryptoflorescence occurs, theforces resulting from its confinement can cause disintegrationof pavement surfaces.6. Reduction of Efflorescence Potential in NewPavements6.1 Efflorescence on new uni

22、 when exposureof the pavement to potential efflorescence causing compoundsis minimized.6.2 The amount of water from precipitation and othersources that is able to penetrate a unit pavement system isminimized by:6.2.1 A minimum surface slope to drain of14 in./ft (20mm/m).6.2.2 Good bond and full cont

26、 is quicklydrained out of the system by:6.3.1 The use of a drainage system that conveys water tolow points and allows water to be conveyed out of thepavement system.6.4 Contact between dissimilar paver units is minimized by:6.4.1 The use of a separator between changes in pavermaterials in unit pavem

27、ent systems.6.5 Potential efflorescence compounds in the pavementsystem materials can be minimized by:6.5.1 Preconstruction testing of all unit pavement systemmaterials, water, cleaning agents, deicing chemicals, and ad-mixtures to be used to evaluate their potential to contribute toefflorescence. T

28、he results of these tests should be evaluatedtogether with the influence of construction practices and designin predicting efflorescence potential in pavements. Availablepreconstruction tests include: Test Method C67 efflorescencetest for brick; chemical analysis of cements to determine watersoluble

29、 alkali (Na2OK2O) content; chemical analysis ofhydrated lime to determine calcium sulfate content; andchemical analysis of sand, water, admixtures and cleaningagents to determine alkali, chloride, and sulfate content.Presently, there is no ASTM efflorescence test for concretepaver units or mortar.
