WK87191 - New Test Method for Determination of Glass-Fiber Roving Chopping Rate for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Work Item

ASTM WK87191

New Test Method for Determination of Glass-Fiber Roving Chopping Rate for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete

1. Scope

This test method covers determination of the rate at which glass fiber is chopped when casting glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) by the spray-up process in a manufacturing plant.

Keywords

Alkali resistant glass fiber; glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC); Glass-Fiber Roving Chopping Rate, Bag Test

Rationale

This is a current method that is included in the PCI 130 manual but would be more appropriate as an ASTM standard.
