ASTM D1635-00(2006)
Historical Standard: ASTM D1635-00(2006) Standard Test Method for Flexural Strength of Soil-Cement Using Simple Beam with Third-Point Loading
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the flexural strength of soil-cement by the use of a simple beam with third-point loading.
Note 1For methods of molding soil-cement specimens, see Practice D 1632.
1.2 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to inch-pound units, which are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.2.1 The converted inch-pound units use the gravitational system of units. In this system, the pound (lbf) represents a unit of force (weight), while the unit for mass is slugs. The converted slug unit is not given, unless dynamic (F = ma) calculations are involved.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
