ASTM C1385/C1385M-10 (R2017) PDF Download

ASTM C1385/C1385M-10 (R2017) is a standard practice that provides procedures for obtaining representative samples of materials to be used in shotcrete applications. The purpose of sampling is to ensure that the materials meet the specifications outlined for their use.

The practice covers sampling from various sources, including stationary and truck mixers, volumetric and continuous mixing equipment, and bag and bulk delivery. The samples obtained through this practice are then subjected to testing to determine compliance with the specified requirements.

The standard recognizes that measurements can be expressed in either inch-pound or SI units, and both are accepted. However, it emphasizes that the two systems should be used independently, as combining values from both systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.
