• Mark the core sample locations before positioning the coring equipment.

• Asphalt concrete may have to be cooled before sampling to reduce the possibility of damage to the core. If the asphalt concrete is 25 mm or less in thickness, place a piece of dry ice 250 mm x 250 mm x 25 mm on the selected site for ten minutes before coring. For each additional 25 mm of asphalt concrete thickness, an additional 5 minutes of cooling time is required.

• Position the core drill with the core barrel perpendicular to the asphalt concrete surface at the specified sampling location.

• Turn on the core barrel cooling equipment and lower the rotating barrel steadily with just sufficient pressure to start cutting. When the core barrel projects through the asphalt concrete, stop the barrel rotation and turn off the cooling equipment. Raise the core barrel and remove the core from the hole using core retrieval equipment.

• If coring with water, wipe the cores immediately with a dry towel to minimize water absorption into the core.

• Identify the core by sample number. All other sample documentation as described in 2.4 should be recorded and submitted with the core samples.

• Immediately after cores are removed from the road surface and they have been marked for sample number, they will be placed in an insulated container which is equipped to maintain the temperature of the cores at 10o C or colder until delivered to the specified laboratory for testing.

• Backfill the core holes with hot asphalt mix and compact with hand held Marshall Compaction hammer. Core holes shall be dry and clean prior to backfilling.

6. Modulus of Rapture

7. Fly ash / Lime Brick Test

This test helps in determining the porosity and density of bricks to be used for the construction of load-bearing walls. The method involves measurement of dimensions and mass to determine density, followed by measuring the increase in mass when soaked in water for a standard period of time.

Test Method: IS: 1528 (P-8,9)1974

In this test, we assess the amount of water that a brick can absorb is measured by the water absorption test. There is no distinct relationship between water absorption and the water-tightness of walls. The results of water absorption tests are used by the brick manufacturer for quality assurance.

Test Method: IS: 3495 (P-2)1992

This test helps in determining the permanent linear change of refractory brick when heated under prescribed conditions, which will measure any potential shrinking when used for load-bearing walls.

Test Method: IS: 1528 (P-6)1974

The abrasion resistance of a refractory material provides an indication of its suitability for service in abrasion or erosive environments.

Test Method:IS: 5688-1982

Creep in compression (CIC) refers to the percentage of shrinkage of a refractory test piece under a constant load and exposed to a constant high temperature over a long period of time.

Test Method: IS: 1528 (P-18) 1993

The modulus of rupture (MOR) is the maximum surface stress in a bent beam at the instance of failure. One might expect this to be exactly the same as the strength measured in tension, but it is always larger because the volume subjected to this maximum stress is small, and the probability of a large flaw lying in the highly stressed region is also small.

Test Method: IS: 1528 (P-15)1991, IS: 1528 (P-5)1993

This test helps in determining the strength of fly ash/lime bricks.

Test method: IS: 13757 / IS: 12894

Ceramics are composed of compounds of metals and non metals and may be crystalline or partly crystalline. They are characterized as brittle, hard, strong in compression, and weak in shearing, tension and impact. These materials are also very resistant to both corrosion and very high temperatures and can be designed to either insulate against or selected to conduct electricity. Ceramics have a wide range of applications most notably in industries that require materials to withstand large compressive forces or intense heat exposure for extended periods of time.

Testing ceramics helps determine if they are suited for specific applications. Typically this involves a series of tests to measure the material’s mechanical properties. These properties include the yield strength, ultimate strength, tensile strength, compressive strength, flexural strength, fracture strength, hardness, fracture resistance and creep rate. With the knowledge of these values the behavior that is expected from the ceramic during the application can be predicted and it can be shown if it will succeed or fail.

There are many different tests that can be performed upon ceramics but the most common and important are those that involve compression, tension, flexural, and fracture mechanics. Because of the way that ceramics are constructed they generally posses vary high compressive strengths and will most often fail due to tensile, flexural or fracture forces; therefore it is very important to test these properties. Each property may also be tested using conventional methods, creep mechanics or cyclic (fatigue) methods.
