ASTM C1435/C1435M-07
(Practice)Standard Practice for Molding Roller-Compacted Concrete in Cylinder Molds Using a Vibrating Hammer
Standard Practice for Molding Roller-Compacted Concrete in Cylinder Molds Using a Vibrating Hammer
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers molding cylindrical test specimens from concrete when the standard procedures of rodding and internal vibration, as described in Practice C 31/C 31M and Practice C 1176, are not practicable. This practice is applicable to freshly-mixed concrete, prepared in the laboratory and the field.
1.2 Freshly-mixed concrete is molded in cylindrical molds using an electric vibrating hammer equipped with a shaft and circular plate.
1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents, therefore, each system must be used independently of each other without combining in any way.
1.4 The text of this practice references notes and footnotes, which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of this practice.
1.5 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.

3.1 This practice describes molding cylindrical concrete test specimens using a vibrating hammer. Test specimens are molded
vertically in cylindrical molds by compacting the stiff to very dry concrete mixture in four lifts using a vibrating hammer.
4. Significance and Use
4.1 This practice, intended for use in testing roller-compacted concrete, may be applicable to testing other types of cementitious
material such as coarse-grained, soil-cement. This practice provides standardized requirements for molding stiff to very dry
consistency concrete mixtures commonly used in roller compacted concrete construction. This practice is used instead of rodding
or internal vibration, which cannot properly consolidate concrete of this consistency (Note 1).
