1.1 本规程涵盖了从现有结构中选择、移除和装运拟用于测试的砌体试样的过程。这些样本可以是单个砌体单元或组合。组件是现有砌体的一部分，通常由砌块、砂浆、灌浆、钢筋、套环接头和砌体配件组成。试样可取自单层或多层结构或其部分。该做法还包括作为该过程一部分的报告程序。 1.2 本标准文本指提供说明材料的注释和脚注。这些注释和脚注（不包括表和图中的注释和脚注）不应视为本标准的要求。 1.3 以国际单位制或英寸磅单位表示的数值应单独视为标准值。每个系统中所述的值不一定完全相等；因此，为了确保符合标准，每个系统应独立使用，两个系统的值不得合并。 1.4 本标准并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.5 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《国际标准、指南和建议制定原则决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 4.1 有时，作为评估砌体结构状况的一部分，会移除砌体试样。此类样本通常准备好运往实验室，在实验室中，通过目视技术、岩相技术或标准测试方法对样本进行评估。样本的选择、移除和运输过程可能会影响测试结果。本规程提供了从现有结构中移除的砌体试样的选择、移除和运输程序。 4.2 本实践中所述的选择和移除过程主要用于墙壁。从墙壁以外的位置选择和移除砌体试样需要用户判断，以获得合适的试样。 4.3 该实践还包括选择、删除和装运过程的报告。这些信息允许相关方评估这些过程对测试结果的影响。 4.4 本规程不涉及对拆除的砌体试样进行的试验结果的使用。本规程并未确定移除的砌体材料是否符合原始规范要求。

1.1 This practice covers the process of selection, removal, and shipment of masonry specimens from existing construction that are intended for testing. These specimens can be either individual masonry units or assemblages. Assemblages are a portion of existing masonry, typically consisting of masonry units, mortar, grout, reinforcing steel, collar joint, and masonry accessories. The specimens may be taken from single- or multiple-wythe construction, or portions thereof. This practice also covers procedures for reporting as part of this process. 1.2 The text of this standard refers to notes and footnotes that provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard. 1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined. 1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 Masonry specimens are sometimes removed as part of an assessment of the condition of masonry construction. Such specimens are commonly prepared for shipment to a laboratory where the specimens are assessed with visual techniques, petrographic techniques, or standard test methods. The process of selecting, removing, and shipping the specimens can have an effect on test results. This practice provides procedures for selecting, removing, and shipping masonry specimens removed from existing construction. 4.2 The selection and removal processes described in this practice are primarily intended for walls. Selection and removal of masonry specimens from locations other than walls requires user judgment in order to obtain appropriate specimens. 4.3 This practice also covers reporting of the selection, removal, and shipping processes. This information allows interested parties to assess the impact of these processes on test results. 4.4 This practice does not address the use of test results conducted on removed masonry specimens. This practice does not determine whether the removed masonry materials met original specification requirements.
