Segregation 6. Bleeding. Introduction to Workability of Fresh Concrete: The strength of concrete of a given proportion is affected very much by the degree of its compaction. Therefore it is desirable [...]

Usually the tests that can be adopted to determine the workability of concrete are: 1. Slump Test 2. K. Slump Test 3. Kelly Ball Test 4. Compacting Factor Test 5. Flow Test. 1.
