The two most widely used test methods are from the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the American Water Works Association (AWWA). The ASTM Annual Book of Standards Volume 04.01 Cement; Lime; Gypsum is available for purchase from ASTM at www.astm.org. Methods for chemical analysis of lime and lime products are found in method C 25. Physical methods are found in method C 110. The AWWA standard B202-93: Quicklime and Hydrated Lime is available for purchase from AWWA at www.awwa.
