ASTM International’s concrete and concrete aggregates committee ( C09 ) is developing a proposed standard ( WK73384 ) that will evaluate the tensile performance of fiber-reinforced concrete using cylindrical specimens with double-punch loading. The proposed standard contains “pre- and post-peak tensile properties (that) hold great significance in fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) and ultra-high-…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #11676 ###

ASTM International’s concrete and concrete aggregates committee ( C09 ) is developing a proposed standard specification for a broad range of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). According to ASTM International member Larry Sutter, this performance specification ( WK70466 ) will ease the adoption of new materials used for SCMs as established sources become less available. “For a variety of…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #11659 ###

ASTM International’s concrete and concrete aggregates committee ( C09 ) is developing a proposed standard that will be used to help measure the tensile strength of fiber reinforced concrete. According to ASTM International member Luke Pinkerton, the use of fiber reinforcement as an alternative to conventional reinforcement of various concrete structures has been limited in the construction…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #11599 ###

A new ASTM International standard developed by the sensory evaluation committee ( E18 ) provides a guide for giving feedback to sensory assessors. According to ASTM International member Veronika Jones, the standard, soon to be published as E3313, is intended to give sensory panel leaders a better understanding of feedback, including such topics as: how it can be used effectively; how it can be…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, W.

ASTM International’s concrete and concrete aggregates committee ( C09 ) is developing a new standard for economical testing of concrete strength. The proposed standard, WK82351 , will provide a fast, simple, non-destructive method for testing concrete strength that can be performed almost anywhere. According to ASTM International member Neil Cox this method, which measures the dominant resonant…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #11488 ###
