ASTM C1073 : 97a

Standard Test Method for Hydraulic Activity of Ground Slag by Reaction with Alkali

Standard Details

1.1 This test method covers the rapid determination of hydraulic activity of ground-granulated iron blast-furnace slag. This test method measures the accelerated strength development of the slag by using sodium hydroxide solution as mixing water and curing at elevated temperature.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as 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.
