Which of the following ASTM standard covers the determination of portland cement content of a sample of hardened hydraulic-cement concrete ?

  • A.ASTM C 1084-10
  • B.ASTM C 1085-11
  • C.ASTM C 1086-07
  • D.ASTM C 1089-03

Answer: A

The standard is ASTM C 1084-10.

ASTM C1084 is the Standard Test Method for Portland-Cement Content of Hardened Hydraulic-Cement Concrete; the suffix 10 is the year of the edition. It estimates cement content from the soluble silica and calcium oxide of a crushed sample, and is used in disputes over whether concrete was made to specification, a matter of forensic engineering.

The other designations are different ASTM standards and do not cover the cement content of hardened concrete.
