3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
test specimen
sample used in a single determination when a test method requires more than one determination of a property
3.2
laboratory sample
reduced sample derived from a bulk sample for laboratory testing
3.3
hydraulically bound mixture
mixture that sets and hardens by hydraulic reaction
4 Principle
Two sets of three test specimens are prepared from a hydraulically bound mixture. The moulds containing the
mixture are then placed in initial (first stage) curing conditions specified by the nature of the hydraulic
constituents and in accordance with national regulation or decision at the place of use. On completion of the
first stage curing, the 2 sets of test specimens are removed from their moulds and placed in a water bath for
2 days further curing (second stage).
On completion of second stage curing, one set of three test specimens (Set A) is removed from second stage
curing, surface dried and tightly wrapped in plastic (cling) film. The second ‘control’ set of three test specimens
(Set B) remains in the second stage curing conditions.
Set A specimens are then placed in a prepared freeze thaw cabinet and subjected to 10 freeze-thaw cycles,
each cycle lasting 24 hours. After completion of the tenth freeze thaw cycle, the Set A specimens are
unwrapped and returned to the second stage curing conditions for one day to ensure complete thawing.
The strength of both sets of three test specimens is then measured. The mean value of strength for each set
is compared.
NOTE 1 An additional set of three test specimens (Set C) can be used to give additional information about the strength
of the mixture after first stage curing. The use of Set C allows the gain in strength of the ‘control’ set (Set B) between the
end of 2nd stage curing and the time of strength testing of Set B to be evaluated.
NOTE 2 When required, the steel hemispherical buttons used to measure the length of the test specimen (Annex A)
are also fitted into the inserts at the end of second stage curing.
