1.1These two alternative test methods are used to assess the chemical reactivity of a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) as determined by measurements of cumulative heat release or bound water content of hydrated pastes composed of the SCM, calcium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, potassium sulfate, and potassium hydroxide cured at 40 °C for 3 and 7 days.

1.1.1These two test methods do not distinguish between hydraulic and pozzolanic reactivity.

1.2The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.3The text of the standard 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 standard.

1.4This 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. (Warning—Fresh hydraulic cementitious mixtures are caustic and may cause chemical burns to skin and tissue upon prolonged exposure.)2

1.5This 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.
