BS EN 12350-3:2009EN 12350-3:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for determining the consistency of fresh concrete by means of the Vebe time. It is not applicable to concre

19、te of which the maximum size of aggregate exceeds 63 mm. If the Vebe time is less than 5 s or more than 30 s, the concrete has a consistency for which the Vebe test is unsuitable. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For da

20、ted references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 12350-1 Testing fresh concrete Part 1: Sampling 3 Principle The fresh concrete is compacted into a slump mould. The mould is lifted clear of th

21、e concrete and a transparent disc is swung over the top of the concrete and carefully lowered until it comes in contact with the concrete. The slump of the concrete is recorded. The vibrating table is started and the time taken for the lower surface of the transparent disc to be fully in contact wit

22、h the grout (the Vebe time), is measured. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Vebe meter (Consistometer) 4.1.1 Container, made of metal not readily attacked by cement paste, cylindrical in shape (A), having an internal diameter of (240 5) mm and a height of (200 2) mm. The thickness of the wall shall be approximately 3

23、 mm and that of the base approximately 7,5 mm. The container shall be watertight and of sufficient rigidity to retain its shape under rough usage. It shall be fitted with handles and brackets, the latter enabling it to be securely clamped to the top of the vibrating table (G) (see 4.1.4) by means of

24、 wing nuts (H). 4.1.2 Mould, made of metal not readily attacked by cement paste and not thinner than 1,5 mm. The interior of the mould shall be smooth and free from projections such as protruding rivets and shall be free from dents. The mould shall be in the form of a hollow frustum of a cone having

25、 the following internal dimensions: diameter of base: (200 2) mm; diameter of top: (100 2) mm; height: (300 2) mm. The base and the top of the mould shall be open and parallel to each other and at right angles to the axis. The mould shall be provided, on the upper portion, with two handles at approx

26、imately two-thirds of the height, to facilitate lifting it from the moulded concrete test specimen in a vertical direction, as required by the test. BS EN 12350-3:2009EN 12350-3:2009 (E) 6 4.1.3 Disc, transparent, horizontal (C), attached to a rod (J) which slides vertically through a guide sleeve (

27、E) mounted on a swivel arm (N) and which can be fixed in position by a screw (Q). The swivel arm also supports a funnel (D), the bottom of which coincides with the top of the conical mould when the latter is positioned concentrically in the container. The swivel arm is located by a holder (M) and ca

28、n be fixed in position by a set screw (F). When in the appropriate position, the axes of the rod and of the funnel shall be coincident with the axis of the container. The transparent disc shall be (230 2) mm in diameter and (10 2) mm in thickness. A weight (P) placed directly above the disc shall be

29、 provided such that the moving assembly comprising rod, disc and weight has a mass of (2 750 50) g. The rod shall be provided with a scale at 5 mm intervals to record the slump of the concrete. 4.2 Vibrating table (G), having minimum dimensions of (380 3) mm in length and (260 3) mm in width and sup

30、ported on four rubber shock absorbers on a hollow base (K), which in turn rests on three rubber feet. A vibrator unit (L) is securely fixed to the bottom of the table. The vibrator shall operate at a nominal frequency of 50 Hz to 60 Hz and the vertical amplitude of the table with the empty container

31、 on top of it shall be approximately 0,5 mm. 4.3 Compacting rod, of circular cross-section, straight, made of steel, having a diameter of approximately 16 mm and length approximately 600 mm and with rounded ends. 4.4 Stopwatch or clock, capable of recording time to an accuracy of 0,5 s. 4.5 Remixing

32、 container, flat tray of rigid construction and made from a non-absorbent material not readily attacked by cement paste. It shall be of appropriate dimensions such that the concrete can be thoroughly re-mixed, using the square-mouthed shovel. 4.6 Shovel, with square mouth NOTE The square mouth is re

33、quired to ensure proper mixing of material on the re-mixing tray. 4.7 Moist cloth. 4.8 Scoop, width approximately 100 mm. 5 Sampling The sample shall be obtained in accordance with EN 12350-1. The sample shall be re-mixed using the remixing container and the square mouthed shovel before carrying out

34、 the test. NOTE Alternative sampling procedures may be given in national standards or provisions in the place of use of concrete. 6 Procedure Place the Vebe meter on a rigid horizontal base, ensuring that the container (A) is firmly fixed to the vibrating table (G) by means of the wing nuts (H). Dam

35、pen the mould (B) and place it in the container. Swing the funnel (D) into position over the mould and lower onto the mould. Tighten the screw (F) so that the mould cannot rise from the bottom of the container. From the sample of concrete obtained in accordance with Clause 5, fill the mould in three

36、 layers, each approximately one-third of the height of the mould when compacted. Compact each layer with 25 strokes of the compacting rod, ensuring that the strokes are uniformly distributed over the cross-section of each layer. BS EN 12350-3:2009EN 12350-3:2009 (E) 7 For the bottom layer, this will

37、 necessitate inclining the rod slightly and positioning approximately half the strokes spirally toward the centre. Compact the concrete throughout its whole depth, taking care not to strike the base. Compact the second layer and the top layer throughout its depth, so that the strokes just penetrate

38、into the underlying layer. In filling and tamping the top layer, heap the concrete above the mould before tamping is started. If necessary, add further concrete to maintain an excess above the top of the mould throughout the compacting operation. After the top layer has been tamped, loosen the screw

39、 (F) and raise the funnel (D) and swing it out of the way and tighten the screw (F) in the new position. Ensure that the mould (B) does not rise or move prematurely and concrete is not allowed to fall into the container (A). Strike off the concrete level with the top of the mould with a sawing and r

40、olling motion of the compacting rod. Remove the mould (B) from the concrete by raising it carefully in a vertical direction, using the handles. Perform the operation of raising the mould in 2 s to 5 s by a steady upward lift with no lateral or torsional motion being imparted to the concrete. If the

41、concrete shears, as shown in Figure 2b), collapses, as shown in Figure 2c), or slumps to the extent that it touches the wall of the container (A), record the fact. If the concrete has not slumped into contact with the wall of the container (A), and a slump, as shown in Figure 2a) has been obtained,

42、record the fact. Swing the transparent disc (C) over the top of the concrete, loosen the screw (Q) and lower the disc very carefully until it just comes into contact with the concrete. Provided there has been a true slump, when the disc (C) just touches the highest point of the concrete, tighten the

43、 screw (Q). Read and record the value of the slump from the scale (J). Loosen the screw (Q) to allow the disc (C) to easily slide down into the container to rest fully on the concrete. If there has not been a true slump ensure that screw (Q) is loosened to allow the disc (C) to slide down into the c

44、ontainer to rest on the concrete. Start the vibration of the table and the timer simultaneously. Observe the way the concrete is remoulded through the transparent disc (C). As soon as the lower surface of the disc (C) is fully in contact with the cement grout, stop the timer and switch off the vibra

45、ting table. Record the time taken to the nearest second. Carry out the entire operation, from the start of the filling, without interruption, and complete within 5 minutes. NOTE The consistence of a concrete mix changes with time, due to hydration of the cement and, possibly, loss of moisture. Tests

46、 on different samples should, therefore, be carried out at a constant time interval after mixing, if strictly comparable results are to be obtained. 7 Test result Record the time read from the stopwatch, to the nearest second. This is the Vebe time, expressing the consistency of the mix under test.
