This standard outlines a method for preparing test specimens of hydraulic binding mixtures using vibratory compression. It specifies the procedures and conditions necessary to ensure consistency and reliability in the testing process. The guidance provided covers the preparation of samples, including the mixing and compaction processes. The standard is applicable to mixtures that are either non-adhesive or consist of a combination of non-adhesive and hydraulic binding materials. It ensures that the test specimens meet specified requirements for use in various testing applications. The standard provides detailed instructions on equipment, materials, and operational parameters to achieve uniformity in sample preparation.
