APPENDIX — ST-45HRM CE CONCRETE PUMP SLUMP TEST

1.To obtain a representative sample (concrete), take several samples at three or more regular intervals throughout the discharge of the mixer or truck. DONOTtake samples at the beginning or end of the discharge.

2.Dampen the inside of the cone and place it on a smooth, moist, nonabsorbent, level surface large enough to accom- modate both the slumped concrete and the slump cone. Stand on the “foot pieces” throughout the test procedure to hold the cone firmly in place.

3.Fillthecone1/3fullbyvolume (Figure60-A)androd25times with a 1.3 cm x 61 cm (1/2” diameter x 24” length) bullet- pointed steel rod. (This is a specific requirement which will produce non-standard results unless followed exactly.) Dis- tribute rodding evenly over the entire cross section of the sample.
