ASTM C 1567 : 2025

1.1This test method permits detection within 16 days of the potential for deleterious alkali-silica reaction of combinations of cementitious materials and aggregate in mortar bars. The cementitious materials are composed of various proportions of hydraulic cement, pozzolans, and slag cement. Pozzolans and slag cement are permitted to be added separately or as a constituent of a blended hydraulic cement.

1.2The test results are only valid for the specific combinations of hydraulic cement, pozzolan, slag cement, and reactive aggregates tested.

1.3This test is not suitable for evaluating the potential for deleterious reaction of combinations of materials not containing pozzolans or slag cement.

1.4The text of this test method refers to notes and footnotes that provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of this test method.

1.5The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.6This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.7This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
