Significance and Use4.1 In this test method, a compacted sample is vacuum sealed inside a plastic bag. The density of the sample, SG1, is calculatedusing a water displacement method, with the

17、 sample sealed. With the sample still in water, the bag is cut open. Since the sampleis under vacuum and the air voids are evacuated, water will rush in to fill all the water accessible water-accessible air voids in thecompacted sample. With the saturated weight of sample known, an apparent maximum

18、density, SG2, can be calculated. Thedifference between SG2 and SG1 is the measure of the amount of water that has penetrated the compacted sample. This differencecan be used to determine the fraction of total number of voids that are accessible to water, Effective Percent Porosity or PercentEffectiv

19、e Air Voids.effective percent porosity or percent effective air voids.4.2 The results obtained from this method can be used to determine the percentage of total air voids in a compacted sample thatcan be filled with water through surface or interconnected paths within the sample. In general, Effecti

20、ve Percent Porosityeffectivepercent porosity should be less than total percent air voids.NOTE 1The quality of the results produced by this standard are dependent on the competence of the personnel performing the procedure and thecapability, calibration, and maintenance of the equipment used. Agencie

21、s that meet the criteria of Specification D3666 are generally considered capableof competent and objective testing, sampling, inspection, etc. Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Specification D3666 alone doesnot completely ensure reliable results. Reliable results depend on ma

22、ny factors; following the suggestions of Specification D3666 or some similaracceptable guideline provides a means of evaluating and controlling some of those factors.4.3 This method can be used for 100 mm and 150 mm100-mm 4-in. and 150-mm 6-in. diameter cylindrical samples andcubical samples.5. Appa

23、ratus5.1 Balance, with ample capacity, and with sufficient sensitivity to enable bulk specific gravity of specimens to be calculatedto at least four significant figures, that is, to at least three decimal places. It shall be equipped with a suitable apparatus3 to permitweighing the specimen while it

24、 is suspended in water. The balance shall conform to Guide D4753 as a class GP2 balance.NOTE 2Since there are no more significant figures in the quotient (bulk specific gravity) than appear in either the dividend (the mass of the specimenin air) or in the divisor (the volume of the specimen, obtaine

25、d from the difference in mass of the specimen in air and in water), this means that the balancemust have a sensitivity capable of providing both mass and volume values to at least four figures. For example, a sensitivity of 0.1 g 0.00022 lb wouldprovide four significant figures for the determination

26、 of a mass in the range from 130.0 to 999.9 g 0.29 to 2.20 lb 2.20 lb when the specific gravityis 2.300.5.2 Water Bath, with minimum dimensions (Length(length Widthwidth Depth)depth) of 610 by 460 by 460 mm 24 by18 by 18 in. or a large cylindrical container with a minimum diameter of 460 mm 460 mm a

28、ture constant by using a temperature controlled temperature-controlled heater. Also, to reduce thechance for the bag to touch the sides of the water tank, it is preferable to elevate the water tank to a level at which the sample can be placed on theweighing mechanism while the operator is standing u
