This Part of BS 6319 describes two methods for the determination of the density of specimens of hardened resin-based mortars and concretes. The methods may be applied both in the laboratory under closely controlled conditions and on site for routine checks. Method A is a simple measurement method that can be applied only to regular-shaped specimens. Method B is a pyknometer method and is suitable for regular- or irregular-shaped specimens. It should be noted that the pyknometer method is only suitable for resin compositions that absorb less than 1 % (by mass) of water during the duration of the test. These methods may also be used to determine the relative density of the material.
NOTE. The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back page.
Describes two procedures for determining density, these being a simple measurement method and a method using a water-filled pyknometer.
