The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in noncon

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is applicable to assess the uniformity ofconcrete and to deli

Such a relationship must be established for a givent

9、est apparatus (see also 9.1.5), using similar concrete materialsand mixture proportions as in the structure. Use the proceduresand statistical methods inACI 228.1R for developing and usingthe strength relationship.4NOTE 1 Since penetration results may be affected by the nature of theformed surfaces

10、(for example, wooden forms versus steel forms), corre-lation testing should be performed on specimens with formed surfacessimilar to those to be used during construction. Additional information onthe factors affecting penetration test results and summaries of pastresearch are available.4,55.3 Steel

11、probes are driven with a high-energy, powder-actuated driver, and probes may penetrate some aggregateparticles. Probe penetration resistance is affected by concretestrength as well as the nature of the coarse aggregate. Steel pinsare smaller in size than probes and are driven by a low energy,1This t
