ASTM C185 – Standard Test Method for Air Content of Hydraulic Cement Mortar
Description:
Significance and Use
5.1 The purpose of this test method is to determine whether or not the hydraulic cement under test meets the air-entraining or non-air-entraining requirements of the applicable hydraulic cement specification for which the test is being made. The air content of concrete is influenced by many factors other than the potential of the cement for air entrainment.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the air content of hydraulic cement mortar under the conditions hereinafter specified.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 Values in SI shall be obtained by measurement in SI units or by appropriate conversion, using the Rules for Conversion and Rounding in IEEE/ASTM SI 10, of measurements made in other units.
