ASTM C10/C10M-19 PDF Download

The ASTM C10/C10M-19 standard is titled "Standard Specification for Natural Cement" and is designed to provide specification guidelines for natural cement and quick-setting natural cement. It covers the chemical and physical requirements that the cement must meet.

The specification outlines several tests that the natural cement must undergo to ensure its suitability for various applications. These tests include the determination of fitness, autoclave expansion, time of setting, air content of mortar, and compressive strength. The methods for conducting these tests are specified in the standard.

It is important to note that the standard includes explanatory notes and footnotes that provide additional information but should not be considered as requirements of the standard. The standard also mentions several common uses of natural cement, such as unit masonry mortar, cement plaster, grout, whitewash, and concrete.
