2 APPARATUS
2 1 For the Preparation of Test Specimen
2 1 1 Moulds- havmg inside dimensions of75 x 75 x 300 mm (Fig 1)
The moulds shall be so designed that the specimen may be moulded
with ItS Iongitudmal axis 10 a horizontal positron The parts of the
moulds shall be tight fittmg and positively held together The sides of
the moulds shall be sufficiently rigid to prevent spreadmg or warpmg
The mtenor faces of the moulds shall be plane surfaces with a
permissible vanauon 10 any 75 mm hne on a surface of 0 05 mm for
new moulds and 0075 mm for moulds 10 use The distance between
opposite sides shall be 75 0 25 mm for new moulds and 75 0 4 for
moulds 10 use The height of the moulds shall be 75 +8 ~~ mm for both
new moulds and moulds in use Four 10 mm spacer bars and top and
bottom machined steel plates shall be provided The plates shall fit the
mould with a clearance of 0 15 mm on all sides The moulds shall be
made of metal having a Rockwell hardness between B80 and B85
2 12 Sieves - 50 mm 20 mm 475 mm 1 18 mm conforming to the
requirements errs 460 (Part 1) 1985*
2 1 3 Balances - A balance or scale of capacity 10 kg sensitive to 5 g
(Class C beam scale orIS 1433 1965t) and a balance of 1 kg sensitive
to 100 mg (Class B beam scale of IS 1433 1965t)
2 1 4 Drying Oven thermostatically controlled capable of
mamtammg a temperature of 110 5C for drymg moisture samples
2 1 5 Tampmg Rod - A square end cut 12 mm diameter smooth steel
rod 500 mm 10 length
2 1 6 MOIstRoom or Cebtnet - capable of mamtaimng a temperature
of 27 2C and relative hunudity of not less than 96 percent for moist
curmg specimens
2 2 For Testing Flexural Strength
