Definition of Slump Test: The concrete slump test measures the consistency of fresh concrete before it sets. It is performed to check the workability of freshly made concrete and therefore the ease with which concrete flows. It can also be used as an indicator of an improperly mixed batch. The test is popular due to the simplicity of apparatus used and simple procedure. The slump test is used to ensure uniformity for different loads of concrete under field conditions.
Project Report | Compression Test on Concrete Civil Engineering Project Reports ABSTRACT: With the growth of construction industry, there is need to give quality in it. Many of the projects fail in construction field because of improper results and improper testing on site. One of the basic and important tests is a compressive test which should be done carefully since it is taken as the backbone of all tests of civil engineering related to concrete. Compression test is required almost in every project since it gives us a brief idea of the grade and type of concrete. Many of them do small mistakes in these which include the different exclusion of different parameters of concrete, the improper procedure for filling and compacting concrete, wrong methods of testing of concrete and much more. This paper contains all the necessary parameters, equipment and the acceptance criteria of the test. It also includes a procedure for filling and compacting concrete as well as methods of
