Significance and Use5.1 This procedure provides a means for reliably determin-ing the cement content of soil-cement in approximately 15 to20 min. The procedure can be used to determine the c

17、ementcontent of soil-cement to 61 percentage point by mass of drysample of the actual cement content, that is generally adequatefor most construction control applications.5.2 The buffer solution reacts with the calcium hydroxide inthe cement and may react with calcareous material in the soilto produ

18、ce heat. Any reaction from calcareous soil is accom-modated in the calibration curve but below 3 % cement contentthere is usually insufficient temperature reaction for reliableresults. Because Class F pozzolan may not contain any calciumhydroxide for reaction, this test method will not determineperc

Agencies that meet thecriteria of Practice D 3740 are generally considered capable of

Reliable results depend on many factors;Practice D 3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.6. Appara

33、ng the soil-cement/buffer solution and beforeremoving the lid, place a towel over the top of the specimencontainer. The pressure generated while mixing can cause fluidto spray as the lid is removed.9. Technical Hazards9.1 The calibration curve is specific to the mix design andmaterial used. If mix d

34、esign percentages are changed or if thesource of material is changed, a new calibration curve must bedeveloped.D59820729.2 Soil-cement with gravel is highly susceptible to segre-gation during handling. To minimize segregation, use care inobtaining samples, selecting specimens, and during remixingand

35、 testing of the soil-cement specimen.9.3 Soil-cement samples are to be tested within 60 min fromthe time water and cement first come into contact duringmixing at the lab, mixing plant, or on site.9.4 Soil-cement samples must be protected from moistureloss prior to testing.9.5 The temperature differe

36、nce between the buffer solutionand soil-cement specimen should not exceed 4C. If thetemperature difference is equal to or greater than 4C, heat orcool the buffer solution to within 4C of the soil-cementspecimen.9.6 Gelling or stiffening of the soil-cement/buffer solutionmixture may occur when testin

37、g specimens having cementcontents greater than 16 %. If this occurs, the ratio of mass ofbuffer solution to mass of soil-cement specimen (1.65 kg buffersolution to 1.50 kg soil-cement) (3.64 to 3.30 lbm) given in thistest method cannot be used and a new mass ratio must beestablished.9.7 The buffer s

38、olution used in the test method consists ofglacial acetic acid, water, and sodium acetate. Glacial aceticacid is corrosive and ignitable and gives a distinct vinegar odorto the buffer mixture. Sodium acetate and calcium acetate (areaction product) are not considered to be toxic or hazardouschemicals

39、. The acidity of the buffer solution changes from pH2 to pH 5.2 during testing and can be disposed of with thecement waste. If, after testing, a higher pH value is desired orif there is unreacted buffer solution, additional cement or limemay be added to the mixture prior to disposal.10. Sampling10.1

40、 Obtain a fresh soil-cement sample using either themethod described in 10.1.1 or 10.1.2. The method selecteddepends upon the reason for testing. Subsection 10.1.1 is to beused if the production process at the mixing plant is to bechecked. Subsection 10.1.2 is to be used during placement ofsoil-cemen

41、t at the time of construction.10.1.1 Using a square faced shovel or large scoop, obtain aminimum 2-kg (5-lbm) sample from the mixing plant. Thesample should be taken immediately after the soil-cement isdeposited in the truck or onto the site. Segregation of the gravelfraction may occur during the du

42、mping. When obtaining thesample, visually observe if it appears representative of thespecified mixture proportions. If the sample does not appearrepresentative, it should be discarded and a new sampleobtained. Place the soil-cement sample in a large air-tightbucket or other suitable container (see 9

43、.2-9.4 ).10.1.2 Using a shovel or large scoop, obtain a minimum2-kg (5-lbm) sample from the material obtained at the con-struction site for density or compressive strength testing, orboth. When obtaining the sample, visually observe if it appearsrepresentative of the specified mixture proportions. I

44、f thesample does not appear representative, it should be discardedand a new sample obtained. Place the soil-cement sample in alarge air-tight bucket or other suitable container (see 9.2-9.4).11. Calibration and Standardization11.1 Record all calibration data on an appropriate form orby electronic me

45、ans. One example of a form that meets the datarequirements is the form shown in Fig. 1.11.2 Establish a calibration curve by determining the heat ofneutralization of soil-cement test specimens prepared at knowncement contents that bracket the value of percent cement to beused for construction.11.3 P

46、repare nine 1.50 kg (3.30 lbm) soil-cement calibrationspecimens using the percentages of gravel, minus 4.75 mm(No. 4) material, and water as determined when the mixturewas proportioned. The amount of cement added to the calibra-tion specimens should be as follows: three calibration speci-mens should

47、 be two percentage points less cement than thatspecified for construction, three specimens two percentagepoints greater, and three specimens having the same percentcement as specified for construction. An example mixtureproportion calculation for one 1.50 kg (3.30 lbm) specimen isshown on Fig. 2. No

48、te that, in the example, water contentvalues are required and were previously determined in accor-dance with Test Method D 2216 in order to calculate thequantity of each size material needed.11.3.1 In four separate containers place the mass, deter-mined to the nearest 0.01 kg or 0.01 lbm, of gravel,

49、 minus 4.75mm (No. 4) material, water and cement for one 1.50 kg (3.30lbm) soil-cement calibration specimen.11.3.2 Combine the gravel and minus 4.75 mm (No. 4)material with one-half the required amount of water in an 11-to 15-L (3- to 4-gal) container. Mix thoroughly using a largespoon or other suitable mixing device. Ensure that the gravel isevenly wetted and that no dry clods of minus 4.75 mm (No. 4)material are present in the calibration specimen.11.3.3 Add the cement and the remainder of the water to thecalibration specimen. Mix thoroughly to ensure an evendistribut
