1.1 This test method is intended for testing roller-compacted concrete specimens and covers determination of the relative bond between layers of hardened concrete in multiple-lift forms of construction. It is applicable to all types of layered concrete construction involving an upper layer of concrete or mortar bonded to an underlying layer of concrete or mortar where the total depth is sufficient to meet the minimum specimen length and diameter requirements of this test method.
Note 1-This test method does not provide tensile strength results of the material tested.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
