1、Designation: D 4644 08Standard Test Method forSlake Durability of Shales and Similar Weak Rocks1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4644; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.

2、A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the slakedurability index of a shale or other similar rock after twodrying and wetting

3、cycles with abrasion.1.2 All observed and calculated values shall conform to theguidelines for significant digits and rounding established inPractice D 6026.1.2.1 The method used to specify how data are collected,calculated, or recorded in this standard is not directly related tothe accuracy to whic

4、h the data can be applied in design or otheruses, or both. How one applies the results obtained using thisstandard is beyond its scope.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to inch-pound units that are provided fo

5、r informa-tion only and are not considered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of

Significance and Use4.1 The test method is used to estimate qualitatively thedurability of weak rocks in the service environment.(1-7).34.2 This test method is use

10、d to assign quantitative durabilityvalues to weak rocks.Aprimary example is the Franklin RatingSystem (1).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 mee

11、t thecriteria of Practice D 3740 are generally considered capable of competentand objective testing, sampling, 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;Practic

12、e D 3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.5. Apparatus5.1 Slake Durability DeviceThe drum (Fig. 1) shall bemade of 2.00 mm (No. 10) square-mesh, woven-wire cloth,conforming to the requirements of Specification E11. It shallbe cylindrical in shape, with a diameter of 140 mm (5.5 i

13、n.) anda length of 100 mm (3.9 in.). The ends shall be rigid plates,with one removable end. It must be sufficiently 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 temperatur

14、e of 110 6 5C (230 69F). A trough shall support the drum in a horizontal mannersuch that the drum is free to rotate about its axis. The trough1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D18 on Soil andRock and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D18.12 on Rock Mechanics.Cur

20、d D 2216.6.2 The test specimen shall consist of ten representative,intact, roughly equidimensional 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 t

21、heirsizes will vary with the method of sampling. Break off anysharp corners, if possible, 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 Met

28、urability Device Showing Critical DimensionsD464408210. Precision and Bias10.1 Test data on precision is not presented due to the natureof shale and other similar rock tested by this test method. It iseither not feasible or too costly at this time to produce multiplespecimens which have uniform phys

29、ical properties. Any varia-tion observed on the data is just as likely to be due to specimenvariation as to operator or laboratory testing variation: Sub-committee D18.12 welcomes proposals that would allow fordevelopment of a valid precision statement. There is noaccepted reference value of shale o

30、r weak rock for this testmethod; therefore, bias cannot be determined.11.
