C1064/C1064M – 17—Temperature of Freshly Mixed Hydraulic-Cement Concrete
This test method covers the determination of temperature of freshly mixed hydraulic-cement concrete.
1 / 10
What type of container is required for measuring the temperature of freshly mixed concrete?
The container must be large enough to ensure there is at least 75 mm of concrete in all directions around the sensor to accurately measure the temperature.
2 / 10
What should be done after placing the temperature measuring device in the freshly mixed concrete?
After positioning the temperature measuring device, gently press the concrete around the device at the surface to prevent ambient air temperature from affecting the reading.
3 / 10
What is the reported accuracy of the reference temperature measuring device?
The reference temperature measuring device must be readable and accurate to ±0.2 °C at the verification points.
4 / 10
What is the primary purpose of ASTM C1064?
ASTM C1064 provides a method for measuring the temperature of freshly mixed hydraulic-cement concrete to verify conformance to specified temperature requirements.
5 / 10
According to ASTM C1064, what should be done if the temperature measuring device fails verification?
If the temperature measuring device fails verification, it may be adjusted and then reverified to check if it then meets the required accuracy.
6 / 10
How long should the temperature measuring device remain in the concrete to obtain a reading?
The device should remain in the concrete for at least 2 minutes but not more than 5 minutes before reading the temperature.
7 / 10
What is the significance of the number following the designation C1064/C1064M in the standard?
The number following the designation indicates the year of the last revision of the standard.
8 / 10
What is the maximum allowable difference in readings between the reference and the test temperature measuring devices during verification?
The difference in readings between the reference and the test temperature measuring devices should not exceed 0.5 °C during verification.
9 / 10
Which committee is responsible for the ASTM C1064 standard?
ASTM Committee C09 on Concrete and Concrete Aggregates is directly responsible for the ASTM C1064 standard.
10 / 10
After inserting the temperature measuring device into the fresh concrete, what should be done with the surrounding concrete?
