3、ally to correct a typo in December 2006.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the split-ting tensile strength of cylindrical concrete specimens, such asmolded cylinders and drilled cores.1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are tobe regarded separately as standa

4、rd. The SI units are shown inbrackets. The values stated in each system may not be exactequivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independentlyof the other. Combining values from the two systems mayresult in nonconformance with the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all o

5、f thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. 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.1.4 The text of this standard references notes that provideexplana

6、tory material. These notes shall not be considered asrequirements of the standard.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 This test met

8、hod consists of applying a diametralcompressive force along the length of a cylindrical concretespecimen at a rate that is within a prescribed range until failureoccurs. This loading induces tensile stresses on the planecontaining the applied load and relatively high compressivestresses in the area

9、immediately around the applied load.Tensile failure occurs rather than compressive failure becausethe areas of load application are in a state of triaxial compres-sion, thereby allowing them to withstand much higher com-pressive stresses than would be indicated by a uniaxial com-pressive strength te

10、st result.3.2 Thin, plywood bearing strips are used to distribute theload applied along the length of the cylinder.3.3 The maximum load sustained by the specimen is dividedby appropriate geometrical factors to obtain the splitting tensilestrength.4. Significance and Use4.1 Splitting tensile strength

11、 is generally greater than directtensile strength and lower than flexural strength (modulus ofrupture).4.2 Splitting tensile strength is used in the design ofstructural lightweight concrete members to evaluate the shearresistance provided by concrete and to determine the develop-ment length of reinf

13、upper bearing face or the lowerbearing block is less than the length of the cylinder to be tested,a supplementary bearing bar or plate of machined steel shall beused.

Test Specimens6.1 The test specimens shall conform to the size, molding,and curing requirements set forth in either Practice C 31/C 31M (field specimens) or Practice C 192/C 192M (labora-tory specimens). Drilled cores shall conform to the size andmoisture-conditioning requirements s

20、et forth in Test MethodC 42/C 42M. Moist-cured specimens, during the period be-tween their removal from the curing environment and testing,shall be kept moist by a wet burlap or blanket covering, andshall be tested in a moist condition as soon as practicable.6.2 The following curing procedure shall

21、be used for evalu-ations of light-weight concrete: specimens tested at 28 daysshall be in an air-dry condition after 7 days moist curingfollowed by 21 days drying at 73.5 6 3.5F 23.0 6 2.0C and50 6 5 % relative humidity.7. Procedure7.1 MarkingDraw diametral lines on each end of thespecimen using a s

22、uitable device that will ensure that they arein the same axial plane (see Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Note 1), or as analternative, use the aligning jig shown in Fig. 3 (Note 2).NOTE 1Figs. 1 and 2 show a suitable device for drawing diametrallines on each end of a 6 in. by 12 in. 150 mm by 300 mm cylinder in

23、 thesame axial plane. The device consists of three parts as follows:(1) A length of 4-in. 100-mm steel channel, the flanges of which havebeen machined flat,(2) A section, part a, that is grooved to fit smoothly over the flanges ofthe channel and that includes cap screws for positioning the verticalm

24、ember of the assembly, and(3) A vertical bar, part b, for guiding a pencil or marker,The assembly (part a and part b) is not fastened to the channel and ispositioned at either end of the cylinder without disturbing the position ofthe specimen when marking the diametral lines.NOTE 2Fig. 4 is a detail

25、ed drawing of the aligning jig shown in Fig.3 for achieving the same purpose as marking the diametral lines. Thedevice consists of:(1) A base for holding the lower bearing strip and cylinder,(2) A supplementary bearing bar conforming to the requirements inSection 5 as to critical dimensions and plan

26、eness, and(3) Two uprights to serve for positioning the test cylinder, bearingstrips, and supplementary bearing bar.7.2 MeasurementsDetermine the diameter of the testspecimen to the nearest 0.01 in. 0.25 mm by averaging threediameters measured near the ends and the middle of thespecimen and lying in

27、 the plane containing the lines marked onthe two ends. Determine the length of the specimen to thenearest 0.1 in. 2 mm by averaging at least two lengthmeasurements taken in the plane containing the lines markedon the two ends.7.3 Positioning Using Marked Diametral LinesCenterone of the plywood strip

28、s along the center of the lower bearingblock. Place the specimen on the plywood strip and align sothat the lines marked on the ends of the specimen are verticaland centered over the plywood strip. Place a second plywoodstrip lengthwise on the cylinder, centered on the lines markedon the ends of the

29、cylinder. Position the assembly to ensure thefollowing conditions:FIG. 1 General Views of a Suitable Apparatus for Marking End Diameters Used for Alignment of Specimen in Testing MachineC 496/C 496M 04e127.3.1 The projection of the plane of the two lines marked onthe ends of the specimen intersects

31、supplementary bearing bar bymeans of the aligning jig as illustrated in Fig. 3 and center thejig so that the supplementary bearing bar and the center of thespecimen are directly beneath the center of thrust of thespherical bearing block.7.5 Rate of LoadingApply the load continuously andwithout shock

Record the maximum applied loadindicated by the testing machine at failure. Note the type offailure and the appearance of the concrete.NOTE 3The relationship bet

33、ween splitting tensile stress and appliedload is shown in Section 8.

38、 3 12-in. 150 3 300-mm cylindricalspecimens with an average splitting tensile strength of 405 psi2.8 MPa. Results of two properly conducted tests on the samematerial, therefore, should not differ by more than 14 % (seeNote 4) of their average for splitting tensile strengths of about400 psi 2.8 MPa.N
