(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Reheat Change of Refractory Brick
Standard Test Method for Reheat Change of Refractory Brick
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 Refractory brick and shapes of different compositions exhibit unique permanent linear changes after heating or reheating. This test method provides a standard procedure for heating various classes of refractories with appropriate heating schedules.
3.2 Linear reheat changes obtained by this test method are suitable for use in research and development, also often used to establish written specifications between producers and consumers.
3.3 Care should be exercised in selecting samples that are representative of the product being tested and that the schedule selected is appropriate to the product.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the permanent linear change of refractory brick when heated under prescribed conditions.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. Note 1—Test methods incorporating additional provisions pertinent to specific refractory materials are given in the following Test Methods: C C179179, C C210210, and C C605605.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

5. Test Specimens
1 1
5.1 For each test use three rectangular specimens measuring 9 by 4 ⁄2 by 2 ⁄2 or 3 in. (228 by 114 by 64 or 76 mm) in size, or,
if smaller, shapes approaching these dimensions as closely as possible. These may be commercial brick of the specified size or test
pieces cut out of larger shapes.
5.2 Using ceramic paint or crayon, label each specimen, and make a reference mark at each end on the center line of a broad
face to indicate the exact position where the measurement is made. Measure the length on each of the three test specimens to the
