Published annually, this is the 2023 edition. The next edition is expected September 2024.
This volume contains 146 standards.
Volume 04.01 features specifications and test methods that establish the property requirements and measurement procedures for hydraulic cements, including portland, natural, pozzolanic, masonry, rapid hardening, and slag.
It includes standards that define the appropriate qualities of lime and limestone and how to analyze them for environmental and industrial uses.
The remaining standards address gypsum and related building materials and systems, including application procedures and related accessories, including exterior insulation and finishing systems (EIFS).
ASTM’s Manual of Cement Testing, a valuable companion to these standards, also appears in this volume.
