4.1 This practice describes procedures for providing plane surfaces on the two bearing surfaces of units and prisms. The purpose of this standard is to provide consistent and standardized procedures for capping units and prisms for compression testing. The procedures are based on those contained (or previously contained) in Test Methods C140, Practice C617, and Test Method C1314. Note 2: Specimens capped using this practice will vary
significantly in size and weight. Appropriate care and handling may
differ based on specimen size and weight. Provide care and handling
as needed to provide for proper capping based on the physical
characteristics of the specimen being capped.
