Work Item
ASTM WK93554
Revision of C1586-20 Standard Guide for Quality Assurance of Mortars
Rationale
The use of the term "arbitrary" in Section 4.3.1 to describe the establishment of mortar consistency flow for laboratory testing is inaccurate. The required flow of 110 +/-5% is chosen to approximate the consistency of mortar after being placed in a masonry assemblage.
