Procedure9.1 Place a position mark on the specimen to permit plac

34、ingthe specimen in the comparator in the same position duringsubsequent measurements.9.2 Measure the length of the test specimen.9.3 Immerse the specimen in distilled water at a roomtemperature in the range of 20 to 27.5 C.9.4 At intervals, remove the specimen, blot to removeexcess surface water and

35、 measure until the change in lengthduring a 24-h water immersion period does not exceed 0.02 %as calculated in 10.1. The length when in this condition is takenas the reference length. The reference length is usuallyachieved after 1 to 4 days of immersion.9.5 Immerse the water-saturated specimens in

36、a bottlecontaining a minimum of 35 mL of 1N NaOH solution perspecimen at room temperature and seal. Immerse no more thantwo specimens in a bottle.9.6 Measure the length of the specimens after 7, 14, 21, and28 days of immersion in NaOH solution and at 4-weekintervals thereafter. If the tests continue

37、 beyond 1 year, makemeasurements at 12-week intervals.9.7 When measurements are made, remove the specimenfrom the bottle, rinse with distilled water, blot to removeexcess surface water and determine its length in the sameposition as during the initial measurement.9.8 After measurement, immediately r

38、eturn the specimen tothe bottle and reseal.9.9 Replace the solution every 6 months during the testingperiod.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the length change to the nearest 0.01 % ofthe reference length as follows:Dl 5 l1 l0!/l0# 3 100 (1)where:Dl = % length change at test age,l1= length in mm (in.) a

Precision and Bias12.1 Precision:12.1.1 If the results of replicate specimens measured by thesame operator and which presumably r

42、epresent the samematerial, differ by more than 0.10 percentage point for expan-sions less than 1.0 %, it is highly probable that the specimensrepresent rocks that are significantly different in chemicalcomposition, texture, or both.12.1.2 The single-operator, single-comparator, single-specimen preci

43、sion has been found to be 60.02 percentagepoint (3S) as defined in Practice E177.12.1.3 The multi-operator, single-comparator, single-specimen precision has been found to be 60.03 percentagepoint (3S) as defined in Practice E177.12.1.4 The multi-operator, multi-comparator, single-specimen precision

44、has been found to be 60.05 percentagepoint (3S) as defined in Practice E177.12.1.5 In a single laboratory, single operator study of therange of expansion of pairs of rock cylinders from 29 samplesof rock from a single quarry (each pair of cylinders cut from adifferent sample block approximately 75 3

45、 75 3 50 mm insize), the following data were found:12.1.5.1 For pairs of specimens giving average expansion ofless than 0.50 %, the average standard deviation was found tobe 0.0255 %3; therefore, the difference in expansion betweenpairs of cylinders cut from a single block should only exceed0.072 %3

46、one time in twenty when the average expansion isless than 0.50 %.12.1.5.2 For pairs of specimens giving average expansion ofmore than 0.50 %, the average standard deviation was found tobe 0.095 %3; therefore, the difference in expansion betweenpairs of cylinders cut from a single block should only e

47、xceed0.269 %3one time in twenty when the average expansion ismore than 0.50 %.12.2 BiasThe procedure in this test method for measuringexpansion has no bias because the expansion can be definedonly in terms of this test method.13.

48、eleterious expansionAPPENDIX(Nonmandatory Information)X1. Interpretation of ResultsX1.1 Since the expansion caused by reactions betweencement alkalies and carbonate aggregates is sensitive to subtlechanges in aggregate lithology, the results of measurementsshould be interpreted with full recognition

49、 of the variableswhich would affect the results obtained. The acceptance orrejection of aggregate sources based solely on the results of thistest is not recommended since, in commercial production,expansive and nonexpansive materials may occur in closeproximity and the securing of samples adequately representa-tive of the variability of the production of the source is adifficult task and requires the efforts of an individual trained todistinguish differences in lithology.X1.2 The relationship of the test results to the behavior oflarge quantities of rock from a given
