scope:
This test method covers determination of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of hydraulic cement concrete cores and cylinders. Because it is known that the degree of saturation of concrete influences its measured coefficient of thermal expansion, the specimens must be in a saturated condition for this procedure.
The values stated in SI units shall be regarded as the standard.
The quality of the results produced by this standard are dependent on the competence of the personnel performing the procedure and the capability, calibration, and maintenance of the equipment used. Agencies that meet the criteria of R 18 are generally considered capable of competent and objective testing/sampling/ins
