nonreactive with concrete. Molds shall be watertight and hold their dimensions and
shape under all conditions of use.
Cylindrical Specimens

, Compressive or Splitting Tensile Strength Specimens shall be cylinders cast and
allowed to set in an upright position. The length shall be twice the diameter (4 X 8in or 6
X 12 in). The cylinder daimeter shall be at least 3 times the nominal maximum size of
the coarse aggregate. When the nominal maximum size of the coarse aggregate
exceeds 2 inches the concrete sample shall be treated by wet sieving through a 2 inch
sieve.
Beam Specimens
Flexural strength specimens shall be beams of concrete cast and hardened in the
horizontal position. The length shall be at least 2 inch greater than three times the depth
as tested. The ratio of width to depth as molded shall not exceed 1.5. The standard
beam shall be 6 by 6 inches in cross section, and shall be used for concrete with
nominal maximum size coarse aggregate up to 2 inches. When the nominal maximum
size of the coarse aggregate exceeds 2 inches, the smaller cross sectional dimension of
the beam shall be at least three times the nominal maximum size of the coarse
aggregate.
Tamping Rod

hemispherical tip of the same diameter as the rod.
Rod Dimensions are based off of the diameter of Cylinder or Width of Beam.

per minute while the vibrator is operating in the concrete. The diameter of a round
vibrator shall be no more than one fourth the diameter of the cylinder mold or width of
the beam mold. The combined length of the vibrator shaft and vibrating element shall
exceed the depth of the section being vibrated by at least 3 inches.
Mallet
A mallet with a rubber or rawhide head weighing 1.25 + or - 0.5 lb shall be used.
