2、 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers coal

3、fly ash and raw orcalcined natural pozzolan for use in concrete where cementi-tious or pozzolanic action, or both, is desired, or where otherproperties normally attributed to fly ash or pozzolans may bedesired, or where both objectives are to be achieved.NOTE 1Finely divided materials may tend to re

4、duce the entrained aircontent of concrete. Hence, if a fly ash or natural pozzolan is added to anyconcrete for which entrainment of air is specified, provision should bemade to ensure that the specified air content is maintained by air contenttests and by use of additional air-entraining admixture o

5、r use of anair-entraining admixture in combination with air-entraining hydrauliccement.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes,which provide explanatory information. These notes and foot-notes (excluding those i

10、rties, such as some clays and shales.4.2 Class FFly ash that meets the applicable requirementsfor this class as given herein. This class of fly ash haspozzolanic properties.4.3 Class CFly ash that meets the applicable requirementsfor this class as given herein. This class of fly ash, in additionto h

11、aving pozzolanic properties, also has some cementitiousproperties.NOTE 3Class F fly ash is typically produced from burning anthraciteor bituminous coal, but may also be produced from subbituminous coaland from lignite. Class C fly ash is typically produced from burning ligniteor subbituminous coal,

12、and may also be produced from anthracite orbituminous coal. Class C fly ashes contain total calcium contents,expressed as calcium oxide (CaO), higher than 10 %.5.

17、, but collectively help describe compo-sition and uniformity of the material.7. Physical Properties7.1 Fly ash and natural pozzolans shall conform to thephysical requirements prescribed in Table 2. Supplementaryoptional physical requirements are shown in Table 3.8. Methods of Sampling and Testing8.1

18、 Sample and test the fly ash or natural pozzolan inaccordance with the requirements of Test Methods C311.8.2 Use cement of the type proposed for use in the workand, if available, from the mill proposed as the source of thecement, in all tests requiring the use of hydraulic cement.9.

20、e purchaser has the right to reject material that failsto conform to the requirements of this specification. Rejectionshall be reported to the producer or supplier promptly and inwriting.10.2 The purchaser has the right to reject packages varyingmore than 5 % from the stated weight. The purchaser al

21、so hasthe right to reject the entire shipment if the average weight ofthe packages in any shipment, as shown by weighing 50packages taken at random, is less than that specified.10.3 The purchaser has the right to require that material instorage prior to shipment for a period longer than 6 monthsafte

22、r testing be retested. The purchaser has the right to rejectsuch material if it fails to meet the fineness requirements.TABLE 1 Chemical RequirementsClassNF CSilicon dioxide (SiO2) plus aluminum oxide (Al2O3) plus iron oxide (Fe2O3),min, %70.0 70.0 50.0Sulfur trioxide (SO3), max, % 4.0 5.0 5.0Moistu

27、the test to determine the strength activity index with portland cement is not considered to be the proportionrecommended for the concrete to be used in the work. The optimum amount of fly ash or natural pozzolan for any specific project is determined by the required propertiesof the concrete and oth

28、er constituents of the concrete and is to be established by testing. Strength activity index with portland cement is a measure of reactivity with a givencement and is subject to variation depending on the source of both the fly ash or natural pozzolan and the cement.BMeeting the 7 day or 28 day stre

29、ngth activity index will indicate specification compliance.CIf the fly ash or natural pozzolan will constitute more than 20 % by mass of the cementitious material in the project mixture, the test specimens for autoclave expansionshall contain that anticipated percentage. Excessive autoclave expansio

However, the fly ash or natural pozzolan shall be considered effective only when used at percentages by

43、 mass of the total cementitious material equalto or exceeding that used in the tests and when the alkali content of the cement to be used does not exceed that used in the tests by more than 0.05 %. See AppendixXI, Test Methods C311.DFly ash or natural pozzolan shall be considered effective only when

44、 the fly ash or natural pozzolan is used at percentages, by mass, of the total cementitious materialwithin 2 % of those that are successful in the test mixtures or between two percentages that are successful, and when the C3A content of the project cement is less than,or equal to, that which was used in the test mixtures.
