1、Designation:C 1138 97Standard Test Method forAbrasion Resistance of Concrete(Underwater Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 1138;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A nu
2、mber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining therelative resistance of concrete(including concrete overlays andimpregnated concrete)t
