Designation:C1157/C1157M17Standard Performance Specification forHydraulic Cement1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1157/C1157M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This performance specification covers hydraulic ce-ments for both general and special applications.There are norestrictions on the composition of the cement or its constituents(See Note 1).NOTE1There are two related hydraulic cement standards,Specifica-tion C150 for portland cement and Specifications C595 for blendedcements,both of which contain prescriptive and performance require-ments1.2 This performance specification classifies cements basedon specific requirements for general use,high early strength,resistance to attack by sulfates,and heat of hydration.Optionalrequirements are provided for the property of low reactivitywith alkali-silica-reactive aggregates and for air-entrainingcements.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.Values in SI units or inch-pound units shallbe obtained by measurement in SI units or inch-pound unitsor by appropriate conversion,using the Rules for Conversionand Rounding given in IEEE/ASTM SI 10,of measurementsmade in other units or SI units.Values are stated in only SIunits when inch-pound units are not used in practice.1.4 The text of this standard refers to notes and footnotesthat provide explanatory material.These notes and footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures)are not requirements ofthe standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2C109/C109M Test Method for Compressive Strength ofHydraulic Cement Mortars(Using 2-in.or 50-mm CubeSpecimens)C114 Test Methods for Chemical Analysis of HydraulicCementC150 Specification for Portland CementC151 Test Method for Autoclave Expansion of HydraulicCementC183 Practice for Sampling and the Amount of Testing ofHydraulic CementC185 Test Method for Air Content of Hydraulic CementMortarC186 Test Method for Heat of Hydration of HydraulicCementC188 Test Method for Density of Hydraulic CementC191 Test Methods for Time of Setting of Hydraulic Cementby Vicat NeedleC204 Test Methods for Fineness of Hydraulic Cement byAir-Permeability ApparatusC219 Terminology Relating to Hydraulic CementC227 Test Method for Potential Alkali Reactivity ofCement-Aggregate Combinations(Mortar-Bar Method)C359 Test Method for Early Stiffening of Hydraulic Cement(Mortar Method)C430 Test Method for Fineness of Hydraulic Cement by the45-m(No.325)SieveC441 Test Method for Effectiveness of Pozzolans or GroundBlast-Furnace Slag in Preventing Excessive Expansion ofConcrete Due to the Alkali-Silica ReactionC451 Test Method for Early Stiffening of Hydraulic Cement(Paste Method)C595 Specification for Blended Hydraulic Cements1This performance specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM CommitteeC01 on Cement and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee C01.10 onHydraulic Cements for General Concrete Construction.Current edition approved June 15,2017.Published August 2017.Originallyapproved in 1992.Last previous edition approved in 2011 as C1157 11.DOI:10.1520/C1157_C1157M-17.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1 C1012 Test Method for Length Change of Hydraulic-Cement Mortars Exposed to
