The values stated in either inch-pound units oF SL units, shall be regarded separately as standard, SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact ‘equivalents: therefore, each system must be used indepen- dently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard, 1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes that provide explanatory material.

The meisture conditioning procedures in this test method are imended 4 provide reproducible moisture condi tions that minimize within-laboratory and hetween-laboratory variations and reduce the efleets of moisture introduced during specimen preparation, 35 There is no universal relationship between the compres: sive strength of a core and the corresponding compressive strength of standard-cured mokled eylinders. The relationship is aficeted by many factors such as the strength fevel of the Concrete. the in plage temperature and moisture history. and the ‘strength gain characteristics of the concrete. Historically. it has. been assumed that core strengihs are generally 85 % of the ‘corresponding standard-cured cylinder strengths, but this is not applicable to all situations. The acceptance criteria for core sirength are to be established by the specifier of the tests. ACT 318 provides core strength acceptance criteria for new con: struction, 4.

'5.2 Cure Drilling —A core specimen shall be drilled perpen dicular to the surface and not near formed joints or obvious edges of a unit of deposit. Record and report the approximate angle between the longitudinal axis of the drilled core and the horizontal plane oF the conerete as placed. A specimen drilled perpendicular to a vertical surface, or perpendicular ta surface with a hatter, shall be taken [rom neat the tniddle of a ‘unit of deposit when possible 5.3 Slab Removal—Remove a slab sufficiently large 10) secure the desired test specimens without the inclusion of any ‘conerete that has been cracked, spalled. undercut. or otherwise damaged. DRILLED CORES 6, Measuring the Length of Drilled Cores 6.1 Cores for determining the thickness of pavernents. slabs, ‘walls or other structural elements shall have a diameter of at least 3.75 in, [95 mm} when the lengths of such cores are stipulated to be measured in accordance with ‘Test Method C17aIC 174M. 6.2 Forcores that are not intended for determining structural dimensions, measure the longest and shortest lengths on the cut surface along lines parallel 1 the core axis. Record the average Fength to the nearest in. [Sm 7. Cores for Compressive Strength 7.1 Diamerer—The diameter of core specimens for the dlctermination of compressive strength in load bearing struc {ural members shall be atleast 3.70 in, 94 mm). For non-load bearing structural members or when itis impossible to obtain ‘cores with length-diameter ratio (L/D) greater than oF equal 10, J. core rs Hess than 3.70 in, [O4 mm} are not prohibited (see Nike 3). For concrete with nominal maximum aggrepate size greater than or equal to 12 in, [37.5 mm}, the core diameters shall be as directed by the specifier of the tests (See Note 4).
