The ASTM C305 standard, titled "Standard Practice for Mechanical Mixing of Hydraulic Cement Pastes and Mortars of Plastic Consistency," provides guidelines and procedures for the mechanical mixing of hydraulic cement pastes and mortars. This practice is used to determine the workability and homogeneity of cementitious materials.
ASTM C305 outlines the equipment requirements, mixing procedure, and sample preparation techniques for conducting the mechanical mixing test. It ensures consistent and reliable results by specifying the mixing time, rotational speed, and other parameters.
Products associated with this standard include mechanical mixers specifically designed for cementitious materials testing. These mixers typically feature a rotating mixing paddle or blade and a controlled speed mechanism.
By following the ASTM C305 standard and using associated products, testing laboratories and manufacturers can ensure accurate and standardized mixing of hydraulic cement pastes and mortars. This information helps in evaluating the workability and performance of cementitious materials in various construction applications.
