Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the expan-sion of concrete made with shrinkage-compensating cement.1.2 The

3、 values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. 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 non-conformancewith the sta

Apparatus5.1 Molds, for casting test specimens, when used in con-junction with the restraining cage described in 4.2, shallprovide for forming prisms 76 mm 3 in. square with a gagelength of 250 mm 10 in. The molds shall otherwise conformto th
