A sand-glass affords a convenient guide for the time of kneading. During the operation of mixing the hands should be protected by gloves, preferably of rubber. Having worked the paste or concrete mortar to the proper consistency, it is at once placed in the moulds by hand. The moulds should be filled at once, the material pressed in firmly with the fingers and smoothed off with a trowel without ramming; the material should be heaped up on the upper surface of the mould, and, in smoothing off, the trowel should be drawn over the mould in such a manner as to exert a moderate pressure on the excess material. The mould should be turned over and the operation repeated.

A check upon the uniformity of the mixing and molding is afforded by weighing the briquettes just prior to immersion, or upon removal from the moist closet. Briquettes which vary in weight more than 3 percent from the average should not be tested. During the first 24 hours after molding, the test pieces should be kept in moist air to prevent them from drying out. A moist closet or chamber is so easily devised that the use of the damp cloth should be abandoned if possible. Covering the test pieces with a damp cloth is objectionable, as commonly used, because the cloth may dry out unequally, and, in consequence, the test pieces are not all maintained under the same condition. Where a moist closet is not available, a cloth may be used and kept uniformly wet by immersing the ends in water. It should be kept from direct contact with the test pieces by means of a wire screen or some similar arrangement. A moist closet consists of a soapstone or slate box, or a metal- lined wooden box: the metal lining being covered with felt and this felt kept wet. The bottom of the box is so constructed as to hold water, and the sides are provided with cleats for holding glass shelves on which to place the briquettes. Care should be taken to keep the air in the closet uniformly moist.

After 24 hours in moist air the test pieces for longer periods of time should be immersed in water maintained as near 21° Centigrade (700 Fahrenheit) as practicable; they may be stored in tanks or pans, which should be of non-corrodible material. The tests may be made on any standard machine. A solid metal clip, as shown in Fig. 5, is recommended. This clip is to be used without cushioning at the points of contact with the test specimen. The bearing at each point of contact should be 1-inch wide, and the distance between the centers of contact on the same clip should be 11 inches. Test pieces should be broken as soon as they are removed from the water. Care should be observed in centering the briquettes in the testing machine, as cross-strains, produced by improper centering, tend to lower the breaking strength. The load should not be applied too suddenly, as it may produce vibration, the shock from which often breaks the briquette before the ultimate strength is reached. Care must be taken that the clips and the sides of the briquette be clean and free from grains of sand or dirt, which prevent a good bearing. The load should be applied at the rate of 600 lbs. per minute. The average of the briquettes of each sample requires any results which are manifestly faulty. The object is to develop those qualities which tend to destroy the strength and durability of cement. As it is highly essential to determine such qualities at once, tests of this character are for the most part made in a very short time, and are known, therefore, as accelerated tests. Failure is revealed by cracking, checking, swelling, or disintegration, or all of these phenomena. Cement which remains perfectly sound is said to be of constant volume. Normal tests, or those made in either air or water maintained at about 21° Centigrade (70° Fahrenheit).

(2) Accelerated tests, or those made in air, steam, or water at a temperature of 45° Centigrade (1150 Fahrenheit) and upward. The test pieces should be allowed to remain 24 hours in moist air before immersion in water or steam, or preservation in air. For these tests, pats, about 7 cm. (2.95 in.) in diameter, 1cm. (0.49 in.) thick at the center, and tapering to a thin edge, should he made, upon a clean glass plate [about 10 cm. (3.94 in.) square], from cement paste of normal consistency. A pat is immersed in water maintained as near 210 Centigrade (70° Fahrenheit) as possible for 28 days, and observed at intervals.
