BS EN 12350-2:2009EN 12350-2:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European standard specifies a method for determining the consistence of fresh concrete by the slump test. The slump test is sen
19、sitive to changes in the consistence of concrete, which correspond to slumps between 10 mm and 210 mm. Beyond these extremes the measurement of slump can be unsuitable and other methods of determining the consistency should be considered. If the slump continues to change over a period of 1 min after
20、 de-moulding, the slump test is not suitable as a measure of consistence. The test is not suitable when the maximum size of aggregate in the concrete is greater than 40 mm. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated ref
21、erences, 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 mould in the shape of a frustum of a cone. When the
22、 cone is withdrawn upwards, the distance the concrete has slumped provides a measure of the consistency of the concrete. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Mould to form the test specimen, made of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
23、 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 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
24、open and parallel to each other and at right angles to the axis. The mould shall be provided with two handles near the top and fixing clamps or foot pieces near the bottom to hold it steady. A mould which can be clamped to the base is acceptable provided the clamping arrangement can be fully release
25、d without movement of the mould or interference with the slumping concrete. BS EN 12350-2:2009EN 12350-2:2009 (E) 6 4.2 Compacting rod, of circular cross-section, straight, made of steel, having a diameter of (16 1) mm and length of (600 5) mm, and with rounded ends. 4.3 Funnel (optional), made of n
26、on-absorbent material not readily attacked by cement paste and having a collar to enable the funnel to be located on the mould specified in 4.1. 4.4 Rule, graduated from 0 mm to 300 mm, at intervals not exceeding 5 mm, the zero mark being at the extreme end of the rule. 4.5 Base plate/surface, non-a
27、bsorbent, rigid, flat, plate or other surface on which to place the mould. 4.6 Remixing 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, usi
28、ng the square-mouthed shovel or scoop. 4.7 Shovel, with square mouth NOTE The square mouth is required to ensure proper mixing of material on the remixing container. 4.8 Moist cloth. 4.9 Scoop, approximately 100 mm in width. 4.10 Timer, or clock capable of measuring to 1 s. 5 Test sample The sample
29、of the concrete 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 the test. NOTE Alternative sampling procedures may be given in national standards or provisions in the place of use of the conc
30、rete. 6 Procedure Dampen the mould and base plate and place the mould on the horizontal base plate/surface. During filling of the mould hold it firmly against the base plate/surface by clamping in place, or by standing on the two foot pieces. Fill the mould in three layers, each approximately one-th
31、ird of the height of the mould when compacted. Compact each layer with 25 strokes of the tamping rod. Uniformly distribute the strokes over the cross-section of each layer. For the bottom layer this will necessitate inclining the rod slightly and positioning approximately half the strokes spirally t
32、oward the centre. Compact the first layer throughout its depth, taking care not striking the base. Compact the second layer and the top layer each throughout its depth, so that the strokes just penetrate into the immediately underlying layer. In filling and compacting the top layer, heap the concret
33、e above the mould before tamping is started. If the tamping operation of the top layer results in subsidence of the concrete below the top edge of the mould, add more concrete to keep an excess above the top of the mould at all times. After the top layer has been compacted, strike off the surface of
34、 the concrete by means of a sawing and rolling motion of the compacting rod. BS EN 12350-2:2009EN 12350-2:2009 (E) 7 Remove spilled concrete from the base plate/surface. Remove the mould from the concrete by raising it carefully in a vertical direction. Perform the operation of raising the mould in
35、2 s to 5 s, by a steady upward lift, with no lateral or torsional motion being imparted to the concrete. Carry out the entire operation from the start of the filling to the removal of the mould without interruption and complete it within 150 s. Immediately after removal of the mould, measure and rec
36、ord the slump h by determining the difference between the height of the mould and that of the highest point of the slumped test specimen as shown in Figure 1. NOTE The consistency of a concrete mix changes with time, due to hydration of the cement and, possibly, loss of moisture. Tests on different
37、samples should, therefore, be carried out at a constant time interval after mixing, if strictly comparable results are to be obtained. 7 Test result The test is only valid if it yields a true slump, this being a slump in which the concrete remains substantially intact and symmetrical as shown in Fig
38、ure 2(a). If the specimen shears, as shown in Figure 2(b), another sample shall be taken and the procedure repeated. If two consecutive tests show a portion of the concrete shearing off from the mass of the test specimen, the concrete lacks the necessary plasticity and cohesiveness for the slump tes
39、t to be suitable. Report the true slump h, as shown in Figure 1, to the nearest 10 mm. Figure 1 Slump measurement a) True slump b)Shear slump Figure 2 Forms of slump BS EN 12350-2:2009EN 12350-2:2009 (E) 8 8 Test report The report shall include: a) identification of the test sample; b) location of p
40、erformance of test; c) date of test; d) type of slump true/shear; e) measured true slump, to nearest 10 mm; f) any deviation from standard test method; g) declaration by the person technically responsible for the test that it was carried out in accordance with this document, except as noted in item
41、f). The report may include: h) temperature of the concrete sample at time of test; i) time of test. 9 Precision Precision data are given in Table 1. These apply to slump measurements made on concrete from the same sample and when each test result is obtained from a single slump determination. The va
42、lues which apply when each test result is obtained as the average of duplicate determinations are given in Table 2.

The concretes were made using an ordinary Portland cement, Thames Valley sand, and Thames Valley 10 mm and 20 mm coarse aggregates. NOTE 2 The difference between two test results from the same sample by
45、one operator using the same apparatus within the shortest feasible time interval will exceed the repeatability value r on average not more than once in 20 cases in the normal and correct operation of the method.

46、within the shortest feasible time interval by two operators each using their own apparatus will differ by the reproducibility value R on average not more than once in 20 cases in the normal and correct operation of the method.
