ASTM C1153 – Standard Practice for Location of Wet Insulation in Roofing Systems Using Infrared Imaging Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This practice is used to outline the minimum necessary elements and conditions to obtain an accurate determination of the location of wet insulation in roofing systems using infrared imaging. 4.2 This practice is not meant to …
ASTM C1152 – Standard Test Method for Acid-Soluble Chloride in Mortar and Concrete Description: Significance and Use 4.1 The amount of acid-soluble chloride in most hydraulic-cement systems is equal to the total amount of chloride in the system. However, some organic substances that may be introduced into mortar or concrete contain chloride that is initially acid-insoluble …
ASTM C1149 – Standard Specification for Self-Supported Spray Applied Cellulosic Thermal Insulation Description: Abstract This specification covers self-supported spray applied cellulosic thermal insulation for use as thermal insulation or acoustical absorbent material, or both. The chemically-treated cellulosic materials that are also covered in this specification are used for pneumatic applications operating within a specific temperature …
ASTM C1147 – Standard Practice for Determining the Short Term Tensile Weld Strength of Chemical-Resistant Thermoplastics Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The mechanical performance of welded thermoplastic structures is largely dependent on the quality of the welding operation. It is necessary for fabricators to determine that the proper welding procedures are being followed and that welders …
ASTM C1140 – Standard Practice for Preparing and Testing Specimens from Shotcrete Test Panels Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Specimens obtained in accordance with the procedure section of this practice may be used for preconstruction studies of shotcrete mixtures, to qualify nozzlemen and equipment, or for quality control, or compressive or flexural strength testing, during the …
ASTM C1138 – Standard Test Method for Abrasion Resistance of Concrete (Underwater Method) Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method is intended to qualitatively simulate the behavior of swirling water containing suspended and transported solid objects that produce abrasion of concrete and cause potholes and related effects. 4.2 This test method should provide a relative evaluation …
ASTM C1126 – Standard Specification for Faced or Unfaced Rigid Cellular Phenolic Thermal Insulation Description: Abstract This specification covers faced or unfaced rigid cellular phenolic thermal insulation. Insulations in the form of boards shall be faced or unfaced, while tubular forms shall be unfaced. This specification does not apply to field expanded cellular phenolic materials. …
ASTM C1116 – Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Description: Abstract This specification covers all forms of fiber-reinforced concrete that are delivered to a purchaser with the ingredients uniformly mixed. This specification may also apply to fiber-reinforced concrete intended for shotcreting by the dry-mix process when sampling and testing is possible at the point of placement. …
ASTM C1115 – Standard Specification for Dense Elastomeric Silicone Rubber Gaskets and Accessories Description: Significance and Use 8.1 This specification describes types (based on resistance to tearing and compression set), grades (based on durometer hardness), class (based on flame propagation requirements), and surfaces (based on surface characteristics) of products as listed in Section 4 for various applications. It …
ASTM C1113 – Standard Test Method for Thermal Conductivity of Refractories by Hot Wire (Platinum Resistance Thermometer Technique) Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The k-values determined at one or more temperatures can be used for ranking products in relative order of their thermal conductivities. 5.2 Estimates of heat flow, interface temperatures, and cold face temperatures of single …
