Methods of Test for Concrete - Tests Relating to Fresh Concrete
Also Known As:
The NZS 3112.1:1986 standard provides guidelines for sampling and testing fresh concrete. The standard includes methods for sampling fresh concrete, which ensures representative samples are obtained for testing purposes.
The standard also outlines various tests to determine the properties of fresh concrete. These tests include measuring the unit mass of the concrete, which is the density of the material. The workability and consistency of the concrete are also assessed, which determines the ease of handling and shaping the material.
Furthermore, the standard includes tests to evaluate bleeding, which is the separation of excess water from the surface of concrete, and to determine the air content in the concrete. The air content is an essential factor in concrete, as it affects its strength and durability. Lastly, the setting time of the fresh concrete is determined, providing valuable information about its initial curing process.
