Book excerpt: This chapter covers in general the importance of properly making and curing concrete specimens. In this discussion, the word "making" means paying attention to all the details of mixing the concrete (in the case of laboratory-mixed concrete), specimen molds, placing, consolidation, and finishing the specimens of any kind for either field or laboratory-mixed concrete. "Curing" pertains to temperature, moisture, and time, which are the factors of the curing process of concrete governing the rate of strength gain and many other properties of concrete for which tests are made.

Book excerpt: THIS CHAPTER COVERS THE IMPORTANCE OF PROperty making and curing concrete test specimens in both the field and the laboratory. This subject was covered in ASTM STP 169 [1] in the chapter Static and Fatigue Strength authored by C. E. Kelser and C. P. Siess. In ASTM STP 169A [2], this became a separate chapter authored by T. B. Kennedy. In ASTM STP 169B [3], this chapter was authored by R. F. Adams. In ASTM STP 169C [4], this chapter was under the present authorship.

Book excerpt: The report of ACI Committee 214 states that the primary function of tests of field concrete is to insure production of uniform concrete of desired strength and quality. Concrete, because of its heterogeneity, is subject to the influence of many variables. The effect of such variables as changes in quality, uniformity and proportions of materials, adequacy of mixing, and effect of moisture, and temperature of hardening and curing on strength can be measured by test specimens carefully made under uniform conditions.

Book excerpt: In the United States the "standard" specimens for strength are the 6 by 12-in. cylinder and the 6 by 6-in. cross-section beams. In many countries cubes are used to measure strength. Both cylinders and cubes have advantages and disadvantages. The chief purpose of making specimens is to determine the strength of concrete for check of mixture proportions, quality control, indication of time when loads can be applied, and acceptance for payment. Appropriate ASTM methods cover procedures for making and curing specimens, and these must be followed conscientiously. A major factor among many affecting the proper preparation of specimens is the use of competent personnel. Factors that can have an adverse effect on specimens are the use of nonspecification single-use molds, leaky reusable molds, improper sampling, improper consolidation, inadequate protection of young specimens, improper storage conditions, improper capping, and inadequate curing. Adequate curing becomes more important as the water-cement ratio decreases.
