The concrete slump test is an empirical test that measures workability of fresh concrete. The test measures consistency of concrete in that specific batch. It is performed to check consistency of freshly made concrete. Consistency refers to the ease with which concrete flows. It is used to indicate degree of wetness. Consistency affects workability of concrete. That is, wetter mixes are more workable than drier mixes, but concrete of the same consistency may vary in workability. The test is also used to determine consistency between individual batches. The test is popular due to the simplicity of apparatus used and simple procedure. Unfortunately, the simplicity of the test often allows a wide variability in the manner in which the test is performed. The slump test is used to ensure uniformity for different batches of concrete under field condition, and to ascertain the effects of plasticizers on their introduction.〔 In India, this test is conducted as per IS specification. ==Principle== The slump is test result is a slump of the behaviour of a compacted inverted cone of concrete under the action of gravity. It measures consistency or wetness of concrete.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Concrete slump test」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
