26、.5. Preparation of Materials5.1 Bring materials to room temperature (preferably 65 to75F (18 to 24C) before beginning the tests.5.2 Store cement in a dry place, in moisture-proof contain-ers, preferably made of metal. Thoroughly mix the cement inorder that the sample may be uniform throughout the te

Passit through a No. 16 (1.18-mm) sieve and reject all lumps.5.3 The mixing water shall be free of acids, alkalies, andoils, and in general suitable for drinking.5.4 Dry the soil sample, if damp when received from thefield, until it becomes friable under a trowel. Drying may be inair or by use

28、of drying apparatus such that the temperature ofthe sample does not exceed 140F (60C). Thoroughly breakup the aggregations in such a manner as to avoid reducing thenatural size of individual particles.5.5 Sieve an adequate quantity of representative pulverizedsoil on the 2-in. (50-mm),34-in. (19.0-m

29、m), and No. 4(4.75-mm) sieves. Discard any aggregate retained on the 2-in.(50-mm) sieve. Remove aggregate passing the 2-in. (50-mm)sieve and retained on the34-in. (19.0-mm) sieve, and replace itwith an equal mass of aggregate passing the34-in. (19.0-mm)sieve and retained on the No. 4 (4.75-mm) sieve

30、. Obtainaggregate for replacement from the original sample.NOTE 2This practice for making soil-cement specimens for compres-sion and flexure tests is used primarily with soil materials having not morethan 35 % aggregate retained on the No. 4 (4.75-mm) sieve and not morethan 85 % retained on the No.

Mixing Materials7.1 GeneralMix soil-cement either by hand or in asuitable laboratory mixer in batches of such size as to leaveabout 10% excess after molding test specimens. Protect thismate

When the soil-cement mixture contains aggregateretained on the No. 4 (4.75-mm) sieve, the sample for waterconten

If the mixturedoes not contain aggregate retained on the No. 4 sieve, thesample shall have a mass of at least 100 g and its mass shall bedetermined to the nearest 0.1 g. The operation of mixing a

To eliminate segregation, deposit machine-mixedsoil-cement in a clean, damp, metal pan and remix with thetrowel.COMPRESSION TEST SPECIMENS8. Size of Specimens8.1 Compression test specimens shall be cylinders with alength equal

43、to twice the diameter. This method provides forspecimens 2.8 in. (71 mm) in diameter by 5.6 in. (142 mm) inlength, but the same procedure may be used for molding largeror smaller specimens.9. Molding Specimens9.1 Lightly coat the mold and the two separating disks withcommercial form oil. Hold the cy

(25 mm) into the cylinder.9.2 Place a separating disk on top of the bottom piston andplace the extension sleeve on top of the mold. Place in the molda predetermined mass of the uniformly mixed soil-

Curing Specimens10.1 Cure the specimens in the molds in the moist room for12 h, or longer if required, to permit subsequent removal fromthe molds using the sample extruder. Return the specimens tothe moist room, but protect from dripping water for thespecified moist curing period. Generally the specimens will betested in the moist condition directly after removal from themoist room.NOTE 4Other conditioning procedure
