11、etermine the compressive,splitting tensile, and flexural strength of in-place concrete.3.2 Generally, test specimens are obtained when doubtexists about the in-place concrete quality due either to lowstrength test results during construction or signs of distress inthe structure. Another use of this

12、method is to provide strengthinformation on older structures.3.3 Concrete strength is affected by the location of theconcrete in a structural element, with the concrete at the bottomtending to be stronger than the concrete at the top. Corestrength is also affected by core orientation relative to the

16、e factors shall be considered in planning thelocations for obtaining concrete samples and in comparingstrength test results.3.4 The strength of concrete measured by tests of cores isaffected by the amount and distribution of moisture in thespecimen at the time of test. There is no standard procedure

17、 tocondition a specimen that will ensure that, at the time of test,it will be in the identical moisture condition as concrete in thestructure. The moisture conditioning procedures in this testmethod are intended to provide reproducible moisture condi-tions that minimize within-laboratory and between

18、-laboratoryvariations and to reduce the effects of moisture introducedduring specimen preparation.3.5 The measured compressive strength of a core willgenerally be less than that of a corresponding properly moldedand cured standard cylinder tested at the same age. For a givenconcrete, however, there

19、is no unique relationship between thestrengths of these two types of specimens (see Note 3). Therelationship is affected by many factors such as the strengthlevel of the concrete, the in-place temperature and moisturehistories, the degree of consolidation, batch-to-batchvariability, the strength-gai

20、n characteristics of the concrete, thecondition of the coring apparatus, and the care used inremoving cores.NOTE 3Aprocedure is available for estimating the equivalent cylinderstrength from a measured core strength.4NOTE 4In the absence of core strength requirements of an applicablebuilding code or

21、of other contractual or legal documents that may governthe project, the specifier of tests should establish in the project specifica-tions the acceptance criteria for core strengths. An example of acceptancecriteria for core strength is provided in ACI 318,5which are used toevaluate cores taken to i

22、nvestigate low strength test results of standard-cured cylinder during construction. According to ACI 318, the concreterepresented by the cores is considered structurally adequate if the averagestrength of three cores is at least 85 % of the specified strength and nosingle core strength is less than

23、 75 % of the specified strength.3.6 The “specifier of the tests” referenced in this test methodis the individual responsible for analysis or review andacceptance of core test results.NOTE 5For investigation of low strength test results, ACI 318 definesthe specifier of the tests as the licensed desig

24、n professional.3.7 The apparent compressive strength of concrete as mea-sured by a core is affected by the length-diameter ratio (L/D) ofthe core as tested and this must be considered in preparing corespecimens and evaluating test results.4. Apparatus4.1 Core Drill, for obtaining cylindrical core sp

25、ecimenswith diamond impregnated bits attached to a core barrel.4.2 Saw, for trimming ends of cores. The saw shall have adiamond or silicon-carbide cutting edge and shall be capable ofcutting cores without introducing cracks or dislodging aggre-gate particles.4.3 Balance, accurate to at least 5 g 0.0

26、1 lb.5. Sampling5.1 General:5.1.1 Samples of hardened concrete for use in the prepara-tion of strength test specimens shall not be taken until theconcrete is strong enough to permit sample removal withoutdisturbing the bond between the mortar and the coarse aggre-gate (see Note 6 and Note 7). When p

Samples of defective or d

28、amaged concretethat cannot be tested shall be reported along with the reasonthat prohibits use of the sample for preparing strength testspecimens.NOTE 6Practice C823/C823M provides guidance on the developmentof a sampling plan for concrete in constructions.NOTE 7It is not possible to specify a minim

29、um age when concrete isstrong enough to withstand damage during removal, because the strengthat any age depends on the curing history and strength grade of theconcrete. If time permits, the concrete should not be removed before it is14 days old. If this is not practicable, removal of concrete can pr

In-place testmethods may be used to estimate the level of strength development priorto attempting removal of concrete samples.5.1.2 Except as provided in 5.1.3,

31、cores containing embed-ded reinforcement, excluding fibers, or other embedded objectsshall not be used for determining strength of concrete.5.1.3 If it is not possible to prepare a test specimen thatmeets the requirements of 7.1 and 7.2 and that is free ofembedded reinforcement or other metal, the s

32、pecifier of thetests is permitted to allow testing of cores with embedded metal(see Note 8). If a core tested for strength contains embeddedmetal, the size, shape, and location of the metal within the coreshall be documented in the test report.NOTE 8The presence of steel reinforcement, other than fi

33、bers, or otherembedded metal in a core can affect the measured strength.6,7There areinsufficient data to derive reliable correction factors that can be applied tothe measured strength to account for embedded reinforcement perpendicu-lar to the core axis. If testing of cores containing embedded reinf

34、orcementis permitted, engineering judgment is required to assess the significance ofthe results. The specifier of the tests should not permit a core to be testedfor strength if bar reinforcement, or other elongated embedded metalobject, is oriented close to parallel to the core axis.5.2 Core Drillin

A specimen drilled perpendicular to avertical surface, or perpendicular to a sloping surface, shall betaken from near the middle of a unit of deposit when possible.If cores are obtained for purposes other than determination ofs

Measuring the Length of Drilled Cores6.1 Cores for determining the thick

42、ness of pavements, slabs,walls or other structural elements shall have a diameter of atleast 94 mm 3.70 in. when the lengths of such cores arestipulated to be measured in accordance with Test MethodC174/C174M. When core length for determining the thicknessof a member is not required to be measured i

43、n accordance withTest Method C174/C174M, core diameter shall be as directedby specifier of tests.6.2 For cores that are not intended for determining structuraldimensions, measure the longest and shortest lengths on the cutsurface along lines parallel to the core axis. Record the averagelength to the

44、 nearest 5 mm 14 in.7. Cores for Compressive Strength7.1 Diameter:7.1.1 Except as provided in 7.1.2, the diameter of corespecimens for the determination of compressive strength shallbe at least 94 mm 3.70 in. or at least two times the nominalmaximum size of the coarse aggregate, whichever is larger.

45、7.1.2 If limited member thickness makes it impossible toobtain cores with length-diameter ratio (L/D) of at least 1.0 orif clear distance between reinforcement is limited, core diam-eters less than 94 mm 3.70 in. are not prohibited. If a corediameter less than 94 mm 3.70 in. is used, report the reas

46、on.NOTE 10The compressive strengths of nominal 50-mm 2-in. diam-eter cores are known to be somewhat lower and more variable than thoseof nominal 100-mm 4-in. diameter cores. In addition, smaller diametercores appear to be more sensitive to the effect of the length-diameterratio.87.2 Length7.2.1 Exce

47、pt as provided in 7.2.2, the preferred length of thecapped or ground specimen is between 1.9 and 2.1 times thediameter. If the ratio of the length to the diameter (L/D) of thecore exceeds 2.1, reduce the length of the core so that the ratioof the capped or ground specimen is between 1.9 and 2.1. Cor

48、especimens with length-diameter ratios equal to or less than1.75 require corrections to the measured compressive strength(see 7.9.1). A strength correction factor is not required for L/Dgreater than 1.75.Acore having a maximum length of less than95 % of its diameter before capping or a length less t

49、han itsdiameter after capping, trimming, or end grinding shall not betested.7.2.2 If the compressive strengths of cores are to be com-pared with specified strengths based on standard concretecubes, cores shall be tested with L/D, after end preparation, inthe range of 1.00 to 1.05 unless otherwise directed by thespecifier of the tests. If the strengths of cores with L/D =1 areto be compared with specified concrete cube strength, do notapply the correction factor in 7.9.1.7.3 Moisture ConditioningTest cores after moisture con-ditioning as specified i
