ASTM C928 – Standard Specification for Packaged, Dry, Rapid-Hardening Cementitious Materials for Concrete Repairs Description: Abstract This specification covers packaged, dry, cementitious mortar or concrete materials for rapid repairs to hardened hydraulic-cement concrete pavements and structures. Materials that contain organic compounds, such as bitumens, epoxy resins, and polyesters, as the principal binder are not included. …
ASTM C923 – Standard Specification for Resilient Connectors Between Reinforced Concrete Manhole Structures, Pipes, and Laterals Description: Abstract This specification covers resilient connectors between reinforced concrete manhole structures, pipes, and laterals. Resilient materials for connectors and filler rings shall be manufactured from natural or synthetic rubber and shall conform to the prescribed requirements. Mechanical devices …
ASTM C920 – Standard Specification for Elastomeric Joint Sealants Description: Significance and Use 7.1 This specification covers several classifications of sealants as described in Section 4 for various applications. It should be recognized by the purchaser or design professional that not all sealants meeting this specification are suitable for all applications and all substrates. It is essential, therefore, …
ASTM C92 – Standard Test Methods for Sieve Analysis and Water Content of Refractory Materials Description: Significance and Use 3.1 Particle size distribution has a major effect upon most of the refractory properties. These test methods provide a means of measuring the distribution for the purpose of comparison to the desired distribution. 3.2 These test methods also …
ASTM C916 – Standard Specification for Adhesives for Duct Thermal Insulation Description: Abstract This specification covers minimum material requirements, and safety precautions in application, for adhesives to bond thermal insulation duct liner on the interior surfaces of sheet metal air conditioning ducts; and for coating exposed edges and joints of duct liner thermal insulation to …
ASTM C914 – Standard Test Method for Bulk Density and Volume of Solid Refractories by Wax Immersion Description: Significance and Use 2.1 This test method may be used to quickly determine volume and bulk density of a refractory of any shape, provided it has sufficient structural integrity to permit handling. Thus it may be used on …
ASTM C91 – Standard Specification for Masonry Cement Description: Abstract This specification covers three types of masonry cement for use where mortar for masonry is required. Masonry cement shall conform to the applicable physical property requirements prescribed. The masonry cement shall be sampled in accordance with practice C 183. The temperature and relative humidity of …
ASTM C900 – Standard Test Method for Pullout Strength of Hardened Concrete Description: Significance and Use 5.1 For a given test apparatus, pullout strengths can be related to compressive strength test results. Such strength relationships are affected by the configuration of the embedded insert, bearing ring dimensions, depth of embedment, and the type of aggregate (lightweight …
ASTM C90 – Standard Specification for Loadbearing Concrete Masonry Units Description: Abstract This specification covers hollow and solid concrete masonry units made from hydraulic cement, water, and mineral aggregates with or without the inclusion of other materials. There are three classes of concrete masonry units: normal weight, medium weight, and lightweight. These units are suitable …
ASTM C892 – Standard Specification for High-Temperature Fiber Blanket Thermal Insulation Description: Abstract This specification covers the standard for high-temperature fiber blanket thermal insulation for use at various temperatures. The insulation should be tested and comply accordingly to physical and mechanical properties of the insulation such as apparent thermal conductivity, density, and temperature of use. …
