25、e average annualwinter rainfall in inches defined as follows:3A Freezing Cycle Day is any day during which the air temperaturepasses either above or below 32F (0C). The average number of freezingcycle days in a year may be taken to equal the difference between themean number of days during which the

26、 minimum temperature was 32For below and the mean number of days during which the maximumtemperature was 32F or below.Winter Rainfall is the sum, in inches, of the mean monthly correctedprecipitation (rainfall) occurring during the period between and includingthe normal date of the first killing fro

27、st in the fall and the normal date ofthe last killing frost in the spring. The winter rainfall for any period isequal to the total precipitation less one tenth of the total fall of snow, sleet,and hail. Rainfall for a portion of a month is prorated.Fig. 1 indicates general areas in the United States

28、 which correspond tothe weathering index categories found in Table 1. The index for geo-graphic locations near the 50 line should be determined by an analysis ofweather bureau local climatological summaries, with due regard to theeffect of microclimate conditions, especially altitude.The use of Grad

29、e MW brick in a wall area above grade is structurallyadequate in the severe weathering region, but Grade SW would provide ahigher and more uniform degree of resistance to frost action. The degreeof durability called for by Grade SW is not necessary for use in wall areasabove grade in the moderate we

30、athering region. Grade MW brickperforms satisfactorily in wall areas above grade in the no-weatheringregion, where the average compressive strength of the units is at least2500 psi (17.2 MPa). Grade SW brick should be used in any region whenthe units are in contact with the ground, in horizontal sur

31、faces, or in anyposition where they are likely to be permeated with water.The recommended correlation between grade of building brick, weath-ering index, and exposure is found in Table 2. The specifier can use theserecommendations or use the grade descriptions and physical requirementsalong with use

32、 exposure and local climatological conditions to selectgrade.4.3 StrengthWhen brick are required having strengthsgreater than prescribed by this specification, the purchaser shallspecify minimum strength.4.4 Initial Rate of Absorption (IRA)Test results for initialrate of absorption (IRA) shall be de

33、termined in accordancewith the IRA (Suction) (Laboratory Test) of Test Methods C67and shall be furnished at the request of the specifier orpurchaser. IRA is not a qualifying condition or property ofunits in this specification. This property is measured in order toassist in mortar selection and mater

34、ial handling in the construc-tion process. See Note 4.NOTE 4Initial Rate of Absorption (Suction)Both laboratory andfield investigation have shown that strong and watertight joints betweenmortar and masonry units are not achieved by ordinary constructionmethods when the units as laid have excessive i

35、nitial rates of absorption.Mortar that has stiffened somewhat because of loss of excessive mixingwater to a unit may not make complete and intimate contact with thesecond unit, resulting in poor adhesion, incomplete bond, and water-permeable joints of low strength. The IRAof the units is determined

36、by theoven-dried procedure described in the IRA (Suction) (Laboratory Test) ofTest Methods C67. IRA in the field depends on the moisture content of themasonry unit and is determined in accordance with the IRA (Suction)Field Test of Test Methods C67. Units having average field IRAexceeding30 g/min pe

37、r 30 in.2(30 g/min 194 cm2) should have their IRA reducedbelow 30 g/min per 30 in.2prior to laying. They may be wettedimmediately before they are laid, but it is preferable to wet themthoroughly 3 to 24 h prior to their use so as to allow time for moisture tobecome distributed throughout the unit.5.

38、 Size and Coring5.1 SizeThe size of brick shall be as specified by thepurchaser. The maximum permissible variation in dimensionsof individual units shall not exceed those given in Table 3.NOTE 5For a list of modular sizes see Guide E835/E835M. Sizeslisted in this standard are not produced in all par

39、ts of the United States.Brick names denoting sizes may be regional and, therefore, may not beincluded in all reference books. Purchasers should ascertain the size ofbrick available in their locality and should specify accordingly, stating thedesired dimensions (width by height by length).5.2 CoringU

40、nless otherwise specified in the invitation forbids, brick shall be either solid or cored at the option of theseller. The net cross-sectional area of cored brick in any planeparallel to the surface containing the cores shall be at least75 % of the gross cross-sectional area measured in the sameplane

41、. No part of any hole shall be less than34 in. (19.1 mm)from any edge of the brick.5.3 FroggingUnless otherwise specified in the invitationfor bids, one bearing face of each brick may have a recess orpanel frog and deep frogs. The recess or panel frog shall notexceed38 in. (9.5 mm) in depth and no p

42、art of the recess orpanel frog shall be less than34 in. (19.1 mm) from any edge ofthe brick. In brick containing deep frogs, frogs deeper than38in. (9.5 mm), any cross-section through the deep frogs parallelto the surface containing the deep frogs shall conform to therequirements of 4.2.6. Sampling

43、and Testing6.1 The brick shall be sampled and tested in accordancewith applicable sections in Test Methods C67.3Data needed to determine the weathering index for any locality may be foundor estimated from the tables of Local Climatological Data, published by the WeatherBureau, U.
