Description
Slump Test Apparatus:
CSCT- 2002
IS 7320 & BS 1881-102.
It is used for the determination of the consistency of freshly mixed concrete, where the maximum size of the aggregate does not exceed 38mm.
Specification: The apparatus consists of one slump cone with handles and foot pieces. The slump cone has internal dimension 20 cm dia at base 10 cm top dia and 30 cm height foot pieces can be fixed to the clamps on the base plate. The base plate has lifting handle for easy transportation. One graduated steel rod 16mm dia x 600mm long Rounded at both ends and graduated in mm is also supplied.
VEE BEE Consistometer:
CSCT- 2001
IS 1199 & BS EN 12350.
The instrument is used for workability as well as consistency of fresh concrete. A slump Cone and a graduated rod supplied with the instrument helps the operator to find out slump values and vibration table with container and acrylic disc is used to find out workability of concrete expressed in Vee Bee degrees, which is defined as the time in seconds to complete required vibrating at which the fresh concrete flows out sufficiently to come in contract of the entire face of acrylic disc.
Specification: The equipment consists of:
A vibrating table size 380mm long and 260mm wide, resting upon elastic support at a height of about 305mm above the floor, complete with Start/Stop switch, cord and plug. A holder is fixed to the base in to which a swivel arm is telescoped with funnel and guide swivel arm is also detachable from the vibrating table. The divisions of scale on the rod record the slump of the concrete in millimetres. Supplied complete with a sheet metal container with lifting handles which can easily be fixed to the vibrating table. A slump cone open at both ends with lifting handles and a tamping rod of size 16mm dia and 600mm long rounded at both ends.
