6、nificance and Use4.1 This practice is used to obtain representative samples ofmaterials delivered to the shotcrete machine.These samplesare used to perform tests to determine compliance with thespecifications under which the material is furnished.5.Procedure5.1 Composite samples are required by this
7、 practice,unlessspecifically made exempt by procedures governing the tests tobe performed,such as tests to determine uniformity of consis-tency and mixer efficiency.Procedures used to select thespecific test batches are not described in this practice,but it isrecommended that random sampling be used
8、 to determineoverall specification compliance.5.2 The size of an individual sample shall be a minimum of12 kg 25 lb,the size of the composite sample shall be aminimum of 35 kg 75 lb.The composite sample shall be largeenough to perform the required tests.5.3 Sampling shall be performed as the shotcre
