1、Designation:C64213Standard Test Method forDensity,Absorption,and Voids in Hardened Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C642;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number i
2、n parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determinations of density,percent absorption,and percent voids in hardened concrete.1.2 The text of this test method r
3、eferences notes andfootnotes which provide explanatory information.These notesand footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures)shall notbe considered as requirements of this standard.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address
4、all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Significance and Use2.1 This test method is useful in developi
5、ng the datarequired for conversions between mass and volume for con-crete.It can be used to determine conformance with specifica-tions for concrete and to show differences from place to placewithin a mass of concrete.3.Apparatus3.1 Balance,sensitive to 0.025%of the mass of thespecimen.3.2 Container,
6、suitable for immersing the specimen andsuitable wire for suspending the specimen in water.4.Test Specimen4.1 Whenever possible,the sample shall consist of severalindividual portions of concrete,each to be tested separately.The individual portions may be pieces of cylinders,cores,orbeams of any desir
7、ed shape or size,except that the volume ofeach portion shall be not less than 350 cm3(or for normalweight concrete,approximately 800 g);and each portion shallbe free from observable cracks,fissures,or shattered edges.5.Procedure5.1 Oven-Dry MassDetermine the mass of the portions,and dry in an oven a
