1.1This practice covers methods to use foundry sand as embankment and structural fill.

1.2This practice includes recommended construction (Section 5), compaction control (Section 6), and freeze-thaw durability (Section 7) practices.

1.3The engineer should be aware that foundry sand is a by-product of metal casting industries. Various local, state/provincial/regional, or national/federal environmental laws and regulations may apply if foundry sand is used as an alternative embankment or fill material. It is advised that foundry sand users contact appropriate environmental regulators to determine what requirements or limitations may exist.

1.4This standard applies to both green foundry sand and chemically bonded foundry sand.

1.5The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

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.
