Length Change of Hydraulic-Cement Mortars Exposed to a Sulfate Solution

 
This test method covers the determination of length change of mortar bars immersed in a sulfate solution. Mortar bars made using mortar described in Test Method C109/C109M are cured until they attain a compressive strength of 20.0 ? 1.0 MPa [3000 ? 150 psi], as measured using cubes made of the same mortar, before the bars are immersed. The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
WJE laboratories are accredited by AASHTO (R18) and ANAB (ISO/IEC 17025) to perform testing standard ASTM C1012 for Length Change of Hydraulic-Cement Mortars Exposed to a Sulfate Solution. Contact us to learn more.
