Part 2 Properties of Hardened Concrete other than Strength
Section 4 Density of Hardened Concrate and Depth of Water Penetration under
Pressure (First Revision)
“This section of the series of test methods for hardened concrete specifies the test methods
for certain properties of hardened concrete other than strength, namely densty of hardened
‘conerete and depth of water penetration under pressure. It covers principle, apparatus, test
Specimens. procedures, calculation of test results and reporting of test carried out, for
determination of density and depth of penetration of water under pressure
“This standard has been developed in line withthe related 1SO standard, and includes the
Uiftrentiaton of conerete into 3 states for the determination of density, includes two
methods for the determination of volume of the test specimen and also, elaborates the
Frovisions forthe application of water pressure and for examination ofthe specimen after
Sppication of the water pressure, as well as the detais of acceptable and unacceptable
water permeation fronts.
