10、.NOTE 1The quality of the result produced by this standard isdependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and thesuitability of the equipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet thecriteria of Practice D 3740 are generally considered capable of competentand objective testing, samp

11、ling, inspection, and so forth. Users of thisstandard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D 3740 does not initself assure reliable results. Reliable results depend on many factors;Practice D 3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.5. Apparatus5.1 Slake Durability DeviceThe

12、drum (Fig. 1) shall bemade of 2.00 mm (No. 10) square-mesh, woven-wire cloth,conforming to the requirements of Specification E 11. It shallbe cylindrical in shape, with a diameter of 140 mm (5.5 in.) anda length of 100 mm (3.9 in.). The ends shall be rigid plates,with one removable end. It must be s

13、ufficiently strong to retainits shape during use, but neither the exterior of the mesh nor theinterior of the drum shall be obstructed by a support. The drumshall be able to withstand a temperature of 110 6 5C (230 69F). A trough shall support the drum in a horizontal mannersuch that the drum is fre

14、e to rotate about its axis. The troughshall be capable of being filled with slaking fluid to 20 mm (0.8in.) below the drum axis, and shall allow at least 40 mm (1.6in.) unobstructed clearance between the trough and the bottom1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D18 on Soil a

The drum shall be rotated by a motor capable ofmaintaining a speed of 20 rpm, constant to within 5 %, for aperiod of 10 min. Devices confor

18、ming to these requirementsare commercially available.5.2 Drying Oven, thermostatically controlled, capable ofmaintaining a temperature of 110 6 5C (230 6 9F).5.3 Balance, sensitive to 1 g and having a 2000-g capacity.5.4 Miscellaneous Apparatus, including a brush and ham-mer.5.5 Distilled Water.6. T

19、est Sample and Specimen6.1 Collect, transport, and store test samples and test speci-mens in such a manner as to retain the natural water contentusing the guidelines in Practices D 2113 and D 5079 and TestMethod D 2216.6.2 The test specimen shall consist of ten representative,intact, roughly equidim

20、ensional shale fragments weighing 40 gto 60 g each. These fragments may be naturally occurring ormay be produced by breaking with a hammer. Such fragmentsmay be obtained from rock cores or from test pits, and theirsizes will vary with the method of sampling. Break off anysharp corners, if possible,

21、and remove any dust by brushing thefragment just prior to weighing. The total test specimen shallweigh 450 to 550 g.7. Procedure7.1 Photograph specimen prior to placement in drum.7.2 Water ContentUsing Test Method D 2216, determinethe water content of each test specimen before testing. Thisshall be

22、done with the shale fragments in the drum to be usedfor the actual testing.7.3 Mount the drum in the trough and couple to the motor.Fill the trough with distilled water at room temperature to 20mm (0.8 in.) below the drum axis. Rotate the drum at 20 rpmfor a period of 10 min. Record the water temper

23、ature at thebeginning and end of the run.7.4 Remove the drum from the trough immediately after therotation period is complete and dry the drum and the specimenretained in the oven the same as in 7.2 and obtain theoven-dried mass.7.5 Repeat 7.3 and 7.4 to obtain a final oven-dried mass forthe second

24、cycle.7.6 Photograph specimen retained and file a copy of thephoto with the laboratory report, or record standard verbaldescriptions, as follows:7.6.1 Type IRetained specimen remain virtually un-changed.7.6.2 Type IIRetained specimen consist of large and smallfragments.7.6.3 Type IIIRetained specime

There is noaccepted reference value of shale or weak rock for this testmethod; therefore, bias cannot be determined.11. Keywords11.1 abr
