Workability & Consistency of Fresh Concrete

EN 12350-2 | ASTM C143 | AASHTO T119 | EN 12350-5 | EN 12350-3 | ASTM C1170 | ASTM C1176 | BS 1881:103 | ASTM C1362 | ASTM C360 | ASTM D6024 | EN 12350-4 | NZS 3112.1:1986
Slump cone set
Base plate with clamps
We keep price friendly slump cone kits in stock at all times. 
CONTROLS slump cones are robust, seamless cones able to keep their shape in use.


G-C0149/KIT: Slump Cone Complete Kit
(Slump cone, steel baseplate, filling hopper, tamping rod, scoop)

Also available as individual parts:

54-C0149/A: Slump cone, sheet steel protected against corrosion
100 mm top dia. x 200 mm base dia. x 300 mm height
54-C0150/P2: Filling hopper for slump cone
G-C0149/B: Slump Cone Base Plate 400mm x 400mm x 2mm Steel
86-D1605/2: Flat aluminium scoop, 290 x 105 mm, 440 ml cap.
G-C0140: Tamping rod 16mm dia. x 600mm long

Additional accessories available on request:

4917640: Toledo Ruler 300mm/12" Stainless Steel Double Sided
54-C0149/B1: Base plate with clamps and measuring bridge conforming to EN 12350-2
54-C0140/A: Graduated tamping rod, 16 mm diameter x 600 mm length

The handle raises over specimen and slump is measured using the tamping rod engraved in 1 cm increments or with a rule.

Flow table
Concrete flow table apparatus consists of a double wooden table measuring 700x700 mm hinged at one side. The top table is covered with an inscribed metal plate 2 mm thick.
The steel cone, part of the apparatus, has a top dia. of 130 mm  a base dia. of 200 mm and is 200 mm high. Complete with wooden tamping rod. All metal parts are protected against corrosion.

54-C0151/A: Concrete spreading table to EN 12350-5
54-C0151/1: Flow cone
54-C0151/2: Wooden tamping rod

Vebe
Vebe
Vebe
Vebè consistometer test method is used to measure the consistency of stiff to extremely dry concrete. Consistency is measured as the time required for a given mass of concrete to be consolidated by vibrating in a cylindrically shaped mould. The small vibrating table operates at a fixed amplitude and frequency.

Versions available from CONTROLS:

  • 54-C0195/E conforming to EN 12350-3
  • 54-C0195/C conforming to ASTM C1170 - Procedure A, to ASTM C1170 - Procedure B (using accessory 54-C0195/C1) and to ASTM C1176 (using the accessory 54-C0195/C2)
  • 54-C0195/D conforming to ASTM C1176

The operating principle is practically identical and the units differ from one to the other in the shape of the container and swivel arm with surcharge weight.

The 50 lb (22.7 kg) surcharge weight required by ASTM C1170-Procedure A, which is part of the 54-C0195/C unit, can be replaced by the 27,5 lb (12,5 kg) sliding weight to Procedure B and/or by the 20 lb (9 kg) sliding weight conforming to ASTM C1176 (see accessories).

Otherwise it's available the equipment conforming to ASTM C1176 supplied along with 20lb (9kg) surcharge weight. In the EN model the weight of the moving part is 2.75 kg.

54-C0195/C1: Sliding weight 12,5Kg (27,5lb) to C0195/Cx
54-C0195/C2: Sliding weight 9Kg (20lb), steel cylinder mould (dia. 150x300mm) and mould fixing plate to make C0195/Cx conforming to ASTM C1176

Compacting factor apparatus
Compacting factor apparatus consists of two conical hoppers having a hinged trap door attached to the lower end of each hopper, allowing the concrete sample to flow freely into the cylindrical mould.

The hoppers and the mould are mounted onto a rigid steel frame and are easily removable for cleaning. The complete apparatus is protected against corrosion.

54-C0155: Compacting factor apparatus to BS 1881:103

55-C0140: Tamping rod dia. 16 mm x 600 mm

K-Slump
K-Slump tester is used to determine the workability and degree of compaction of fresh concrete after being placed in the forms. It can be used for in-situ measurements or inside test moulds and forms. Results can be correlated against the slump test.

54-C0144: Pocket flow meter for concrete

The operation is very simple: insert the tester  into the concrete up to the level of the disc, after 60 seconds, a measuring rod in lowered onto the surface of the concrete and the K-slump is read directly on a scale. The calibrated hollow tube has a dia. of 20 mm.

Kelly ball
Kelly ball method is used to determine the penetration of a hemispherical metal weight into freshly mixed concrete, which is related to the workability of  the concrete.

54-C0142: Kelly ball

The apparatus consists of a cylinder with one end having a hemispherical shape and the other end fit with a graduated handle. The weight assembly is lowered through a frame into the concrete and the penetration measured.

Waltz container
Waltz container apparatus consists of a metal box with handles.

54-C0146: Waltz container complete with handles, conforming to EN 12350-4

  • Dimensions: 200x200x400 (h) mm
  • Weight approx.: 5 kg
