ASTM C942

This test method affords a means for determining the compressive strength of grouts that expand and, in use, harden under conditions of partial to total restraint.

It is particularly applicable for determining the effect on compressive strength of grout fluidifier to be used with grout for PA concrete (See Specification C 937).

1. Scope

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the compressive strength of hydraulic cement grout for preplaced-aggregate (PA) concrete.

1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, 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.

1.3 The values in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard.
