1、Designation: C 187 04American Association StateHighway and Transportation Officials StandardAASHTO No.: T 129Standard Test Method forNormal Consistency of Hydraulic Cement1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 187; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year o

2、foriginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the normalco

3、nsistency of hydraulic cement.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of

4、this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use. See 1.4 for aspecific warning statement.1.4 WarningFresh hydraulic cementitious mixtures arecaustic and may cause chemical burns to skin and tissue uponprolong

Significance and Use3.1 This test method is intended

8、to be used to determine theamount of water required to prepare hydraulic cement pastesfor testing.4. Apparatus4.1 Reference Masses and Devices for Determining Mass,conforming to the requirements of Specification C 1005. Thedevices for determining mass shall be evaluated for precisionand bias at a to

9、tal load of 1000 g.4.2 Glass Graduates, 200 or 250-mLcapacity, and conform-ing to the requirements of Practice C 490.4.3 Vicat ApparatusThe Vicat apparatus shall consist of aframe A (Fig. 1) bearing a movable rod B, weighing 300 g, oneend C, the plunger end, being 10 mm in diameter for a distanceof

10、at least 50 mm, and the other end having a removable needleD, 1 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length. The rod B isreversible, and can be held in any desired position by a setscrew E, and has an adjustable indicator F, which moves overa scale (graduated in millimetres) attached to the frame A. Thepaste

11、 is held in a rigid conical ring G, resting on a planenonabsorptive square base plate H, about 100 mm on each side.The rod B shall be made of stainless steel having a hardness ofnot less than 35 HRC (See Note 1), and shall be straight withthe plunger end which is perpendicular to the rod axis. The r

12、ingshall be made of a noncorroding, nonabsorbent material, andshall have an inside diameter of 70 mm at the base and 60 mmat the top, and a height of 40 mm. In addition to the above, theVicat apparatus shall conform to the following requirements:Weight of movable rod 300 6 0.5 g (0.661 lb 6 8 grains

13、) inDiameter of plunger end of rod 10 6 0.05 mm (0.394 6 0.002 in.)Diameter of needle 1 6 0.05 mm (0.039 6 0.002 in.)Inside diameter of ring at bottom 70 6 3mm(2.756 0.12 in.)Inside diameter of ring at top 60 6 3mm(2.366 0.12 in.)Height of ring 40 6 1mm(1.576 0.04 in.)Graduated scale The graduated s

14、cale, when comparedwith a standard scale accurate to within0.1 mm at all points, shall not show adeviation at any point greater than 0.25mm.NOTE 1The requirement that the rod be made of stainless steel shallapply only to new Vicat apparatus or replacement rods and not toequipment in use which meets

Temperature and Humidity5.1 The tempera

18、ture of the air in the vicinity of the mixingslab, the dry cement, molds, and base plates shall be main-tained between 20 and 27.5 C (68 and 81.5 F). Thetemperature of the mixing water shall not vary from 23.0 C(73.5 F) by more than 62.0 C (3.5 F).5.2 The relative humidity of the laboratory shall be

Procedure6.1 Preparation of Cement PasteMix 650 g of cementwith a measured quantity of water following the procedureprescribed in the Procedure for Mixing Pastes of PracticeC 305. The water shall conform to the numerical limits ofSpecification D 1193 for Type III or Type IV gra

20、de of reagentwater.6.2 Molding Test SpecimenQuickly form the cementpaste, prepared as described in 6.1, into the approximate shapeof a ball with gloved hands. Then toss six times through a freepath of about 150 mm (6 in.) from one hand to another so as toproduce a nearly spherical mass that may be e

21、asily inserted intothe Vicat ring with a minimum amount of additional manipu-lation. Press the ball, resting in the palm of one hand, into thelarger end of the conical ring G, Fig. 1, held in the other hand,completely filling the ring with paste. Remove the excess at thelarger end by a single moveme

22、nt of the palm of the hand. Placethe ring on its larger end on the base plate H, and slice off theexcess paste at the smaller end at the top of the ring by a singleoblique stroke of a sharp-edged trowel held at a slight anglewith the top of the ring, and smooth the top, if necessary, witha few light

23、 touches of the pointed end of the trowel. Duringthese operations of cutting and smoothing, take care not tocompress the paste.6.3 Consistency DeterminationCenter the paste confinedin the ring, resting on the plate, under the rod B, Fig. 1, theplunger end C of which shall be brought in contact with

24、thesurface of the paste, and tighten the set-screw E. Then set themovable indicator F to the upper zero mark of the scale, or takean initial reading, and release the rod immediately. This mustnot exceed 30 s after completion of mixing. The apparatus shallbe free of all vibrations during the test. Th

25、e paste shall be ofnormal consistency when the rod settles to a point 10 6 1mmbelow the original surface in 30 s after being released.

Precision and Bias8.1 The single operator-instrument precision has been foundto be 0.25 (1S), and the multilaboratory precision has beenfound to be 0.35 (1S) as defined i

27、n Practice E 177; therefore,the results of two properly conducted tests by the sameoperator in a laboratory should agree within 0.7 percentagepoint, and test results between two laboratories should agreewith 1.0 percentage point 95 % of the time.9.
