In order to ensure the representative block, lien should be before the end of the third set to after mixing concrete mixing sampling between 30 min.
Winter construction of lightweight aggregate concrete mixing: 3.9 during that time, demand for raw materials, mixing time, raw material, heating, mixture out of the pot temperature requirements, etc., should be seriously implemented "standard of ordinary concrete mixing process on site" in article 3.9 and the concrete structure engineering construction and acceptance standard ".
3.9.1 weight aggregate shall not contain ice and snow and frozen clumps.
3.9.2 winter appropriate USES the secondary feeding of lightweight aggregate concrete mixing, secondary mixing process (see rule 3.4 l of the mixing process), in order to improve the workability of lightweight aggregate concrete.
3.9.3 winter should pay attention to test the moisture content of aggregate, timely adjust the water consumption, given slump different components in a timely manner. Than normal temperature slump increases commonly 4 to 6 cm, to ensure that it has good liquidity, adhesiveness and water retention.
4 quality standards
4.1 ensure projects:
4.4.1 lightweight aggregate concrete used in the cement, aggregate, admixture, mixture specifications and varieties and must be in conformity with the relevant provisions of the construction specification and quality.
Inspection method: inspect raw materials factory certificate and test report.
4.2.2 assess the strength of lightweight aggregate concrete block, must according to the concrete strength inspection criteria (GBJ107 87) sample making.
Inspection method: check the strength of lightweight aggregate concrete block test reports and strength assessment information.
4.2 the basic items:
2 should mix of lightweight aggregate concrete, consistent color, good workability.
Inspection methods; Observe check.
4.2.2 of lightweight aggregate concrete mixture slump should accord with the requirement of construction specifications or their mixture ratio notice.
Inspection methods: field testing and checking construction records.
Holdings in construction of winter water, the heating temperature of aggregate and concrete mixture out of the pot temperature should accord with the requirement of construction specifications.
Inspection methods: field testing and checking construction records.
5 quality problems should be paid attention to
5.1 stir the mixture not divide evenly. Color is not consistent: the main reason is the insufficient mixing time.
Particularly to ensure that the winter construction and add the additive, enough time to stir the mixture.
5.2 poor workability, its produce loose mixture is not sticking together and aggregate segregation, floating or mixture to form a mass of unfavorable casting. The main reason is: lightweight aggregate gradation is poor; Sand ratio is too small; Raw materials inaccurate measurement; Or short mixing time. Should overcome the defect carefully, in order to guarantee the good workability of mixture.
5.3 mixture slump is not stable. Master is not accurate, the main reason is that water thickness determination of the change of moisture content in aggregate not promptly, failed to timely adjust the water consumption. Followed by water measurement is not accurate, much less dosage of water. This phenomenon must be overcome to ensure the immanent quality of mixture.
5.4 when using admixture, appropriate in aggregate after absorbing water. To avoid excessive aggregate pore of admixture of absorption. Especially liquid admixtures, use prewetting aggregate, admixture should join with residual water at the same time. Join powder admixture can be made into liquid according to the former method, can also be mixture with cement to join at the same time, to ensure the uniform mixing.
