ASTM C125-20 PDF Download

ASTM C125-20 is a standard terminology document that provides definitions of terms used in various standards related to concrete and concrete aggregates. It is specifically compiled by Committee C09 to ensure consistency and clarity in the terminology used across different standards under its jurisdiction.

The standard acknowledges that there are two specialized standards, C294 and C638, which define terms related to constituents of concrete aggregates and aggregates for radiation-shielding concrete, respectively. Additionally, related terminology for hydraulic cement is covered in Terminology C219. In case of any conflict between the definitions in Terminology C125 and Terminology C219, the definitions in Terminology C125 take precedence for Committee C09 standards.

The standard also mentions that a term is included in ASTM C125-20 only if it is used in more than one Committee C09 standard. Furthermore, it highlights that the definitions in this terminology document undergo regular review by the responsible subcommittee every five years to ensure their accuracy and relevance. Revisions are made as needed, and the year mentioned in parentheses indicates the approval or review year of a particular definition.
