1、Designation:C1708/C1708M16Standard Test Methods forSelf-leveling Mortars Containing Hydraulic Cements1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1708/C1708M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last r
2、evision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 These test methods are appropriate to evaluate theperformance of self-leveling mortars containing hydrauliccements that are used
3、 to improve the levelness,smoothness,and flatness of existing floors.These materials may be used asan underlayment to receive floor finishes,or as an overlaymentto serve as the wear surface.The self-leveling mortars coveredby these test methods consist of proprietary blends of hydrauliccements,along
4、 with fine aggregate,polymers,fillers,and otheradditives.1.2 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining v
5、alues from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.Some values have only SI unitsbecause the inch-pound equivalents are not used in practice.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the u
6、ser of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.(WarningFreshhydraulic cementitious mixtures are caustic and may causechemical burns to skin and tissue upon prolonged exposure.)22.Referenced Documents2
