ASTM C387/C387M − 11b Standard Specification for Packaged Dry Combined Materials for Concrete and High Strength Mortar

ASTM C387/C387M − 11b Standard Specification for Packaged Dry Combined Materials for Concrete and High Strength Mortar

Scope
1.1 This specification covers the production, properties, packaging, and testing of packaged, dry, combined materials for concrete and high strength mortar.

The classifications of concrete and mortar covered are defined in Section 3.

NOTE 1—The scope of this standard does not cover mortars for unit masonry. Dry preblended mortars for unit masonry are covered by Specification C1714/C1714M.

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 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.

Some values have only SI units because the inch-pound equivalents are not used in practice.
