MSC 85/26/Add.2ANNEX 3Page 3542.1.5 ProcedureThe box is filled with the material to be tested by pouring it slowly and carefully from the lowestpractical height into the box in order to obtain uniformity of loading.The excess material is scraped off with the aid of a straight edge, inclined at about 45 o towardsthe direction of scraping.The tilting system is then activated and stopped when the material just begins to slide in bulk.The angle of the top of the box to the horizontal is measured by the protractor and recorded.2.1.6 EvaluationThe angle of repose is calculated as the mean of three measurements and is reported to withinhalf a degree.Notes:Preferably the test should be carried out with three independent samples.Care should be taken to ensure that the shaft is adjusted to be horizontal before testing.2.2 Alternative or shipboard test method to be used for the determination of the angle ofrepose when the tilting box is not available2.2.1 DefinitionAccording to this method the angle of repose is the angle between the cone slope and thehorizontal measured at half height.2.2.2 Principle of testTo determine the angle of repose, a quantity of the material to be tested is poured very carefullyout of a flask onto a sheet of rough-textured paper, in such a way that a symmetrical cone isformed.2.2.3 EquipmentThe necessary equipment to carry out this test is as follows:- a horizontal table free from vibrations;- a sheet of rough-textured paper onto which the material should be poured;- a protractor; and- a 3-litre conical flask.I:\MSC\85\26-Add-2.doc
MSC 85/26/Add.2ANNEX 3Page 3552.2.4 ProcedurePut the sheet of paper on the table. Split 10l of the material to be tested into three sub-samplesand test each in the following way:Pour two thirds of the sub-sample (i.e. 2 l) onto the sheet, producing a starting cone.The remainder of this sub-sample is then poured very carefully from a height of a fewmillimetres on top of the cone. Care should be taken that the cone will be built up symmetrically.This may be achieved by revolving the flask slowly close around the top of the conewhen pouring.When measuring, care should be taken that the protractor does not touch the cone; otherwise thismay result in sliding of the material and spoil the test.The angle has to be measured at four places around the cone, about 90 degrees apart.This test should be repeated on the other two sub-samples.2.2.5 CalculationsThe angle of repose is taken as the mean of the 12 measurements and is reported to half a degree.This figure can be converted to the tilting box value as follows:a t = a s + 3 o (2.2.5)Wherea t = angle of repose according to the tilting box texta s = angle of repose according to the survey test3 Standards used in test procedures3.1 Standard flow table and frame *3.1.1 Flow table and frame3.1.1.1 The flow table apparatus shall be constructed in accordance with figure 3.The apparatus shall consist of an integrally cast rigid iron frame and a circular rigid tabletop, 10 inches + 0.1 inch (254 mm + 2.5 mm) in diameter, with a shaft attached perpendicularto the table top by means of a screw thread. The table top, to which the shaft with itsintegral contact shoulder is attached, shall be mounted on a frame in such a manner that itcan be raised and dropped vertically through the specified height, with a tolerance in heightof + 0.005 inches (0.13 mm) for new tables and + 0.015 inches (0.39 mm) for tables in use, bymeans of a rotated cam. The table top shall have a fine-machined plane surface, free ofblowholes and surface defects, and shall be scribed as shown in figure 3. The table top shall beof cast brass or bronze having a Rockwell hardness number not less than HRB 25 with an edgethickness of 0.3 inches (8 mm), and shall have six integral radial stiffening ribs.
