ASTM C1754/C1754M − 12 Standard Test Method for Density and Void Content of Hardened Pervious Concrete

ASTM C1754/C1754M − 12 Standard Test Method for Density and Void Content of Hardened Pervious Concrete

Scope
1.1 This test method provides a procedure for determining the density and void content of hardened pervious concrete specimens.

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.

The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.

Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.

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.

Significance and Use
5.1 This test method is applicable to pervious concrete mixtures containing coarse aggregate with a nominal maximum size of 25 mm [1 in.] or smaller.

5.2 This test method applies to either core specimens or molded cylinders.

5.3 Density and void content determined by other test methods may produce different numerical results, which may not be comparable.
