CONCRETE<br />
Consistometer<br />
Motorized Flow Table<br />
System Description<br />
This method is a mechanical variation of<br />
the simple slump test that includes<br />
determination of the workability of<br />
concrete. The concrete is formed in a<br />
slump cone positioned in a container, and<br />
is vibrated at a fixed amplitude and<br />
frequency after the cone is removed, on a<br />
small vibrating table. A plastic spacer<br />
disc on the top surface of the wet<br />
concrete allows the operator to judge<br />
when the compaction is complete. The<br />
time to complete the required vibrations<br />
gives an indication of the workability of<br />
concrete, which is expressed in Vee-Bee<br />
degrees. The consistometer includes a<br />
vibrating table, specimen pot, slump<br />
cone, graduated rod, and acrylic plate.<br />
Applicable Standards<br />
BS 1881 (Part 104:1983), AASHTO T126,<br />
BS EN 12350-3, ASTM C 1170, AS 1012<br />
(Part 3)<br />
System Description<br />
The Flow Table is designed for<br />
determining the workability of Portland<br />
cement concrete. The 76.2 cm diameter<br />
table top is finely machined from a solid<br />
brass casting; the stand is made from<br />
cast iron. Operation is simple, where the<br />
ground and hardened steel cam is<br />
designed to drop the table by 12.5 mm.<br />
Applicable Standards<br />
AASHTO T126<br />
