8、mperatures.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen (block, chunk, slab, or piece) of rock ormanmade material is weighed in air and then weighed againwhile immersed in water. Using the weights, the field specificgravity is calculated. The determined specific gravity can thenbe used to determine a mas

Significance and Use5.1 Specific gravity is one factor used to determine therequired mass of individual particles used as gabion-fill, riprap,armor stone, breakwater stone, or other types of rock productsused for erosion control applications, and acceptibility of thesematerials

A macroscopically nonuniform source shallbe represented by a minimum of eight samples of rock. Rocktypes that comprise less

13、 than 5 % of the total source, asdetermined from their macroscopic properties, may be ignored,unless their presence will greatly affect the test results and1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D18 on Soil andRock and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D18.17 on Roc

Washing of the samples followed by air-drying may benecessary.7.3 Air-dry specimens until all surfaces are visually dry.7.4 Each specimen shall be a minimum of 2.3 kg (5 lb) inmass. The maximum mass shall be limi

Small pieces of rock shall becombined to produce a specimen having a minimum of 2.3-kgmass for weighing.NOTE 1Evaluation of the properties of rock is best performed bytesting the largest possible samples.8. Procedure8.1 Perform the test in the

27、of a single test result has been found to be0.027.6Therefore, results of two properly conducted tests indifferent laboratories on the same material should not differ bymore than 0.08.611.2 BiasThere is no accepted reference value for this testmethod; therefore, bias cannot be determined.12.
