ASTM C1692 - 10 Standard Practice for Construction and Testing of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Masonry - This practice applies to the materials and methods used in the construction of AAC masonry. It directly references the AAC materials standards under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C27 and the workmanship requirements of TMS 602-08 / ACI 530.1-08 / ASCE 6-08 and supplements those workmanship requirements with additional requirements particular to AAC masonry. ASTM C1693 - 09e1 Standard Specification for Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC)- http://www.astm.org/Standards/C1693.htm - This specification covers autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), a cementitious product based on calcium silicate hydrates in which low density is attained by the inclusion of an agent resulting in macroscopic voids, and in which curing is carried out using high-pressure steam. ASTM C1686 - 09 Standard Practice for Installation and Testing of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Units. This practice covers the installation and testing of solid, reinforced units made from autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), a cementitious product addressed by Specification . The units are large-sized, factory-reinforced, solid rectangular prisms, laid using thin-bed mortar. Thin-bed mortarAstm C 1660-10 Standard for Specification for Thin-bed Mortar for Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Older ASTM specs (essentially superceded, but may be referenced by above)• ASTM C1386 Standard Specification for Precast Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Wall Construction Units - This specification covers solid non-load-bearing and load-bearing precast concrete wall units made from autoclaved aerated concrete.• ASTM C1452 Standard Specification for Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Elements - This specification covers load-bearing and non-load-bearing reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) floor, roof, wall, and stair elements used as components for building construction. • ASTM C1555 Standard Practice for Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Masonry (Withdrawn 2009 – replaced by C1692). |
