Flow table test

Equipment; flow table, Abrams cone, water bucket and broom.
The cone filled with concrete, prior to lifting.
The diameter of the resulting flow is measured.

The flow table test or slump-flow test is a method to determine consistency of fresh concrete. Flow table test is also used to identify transportable moisture limit of solid bulk cargoes.[1] It is used primarily for assessing concrete that is too fluid (workable) to be measured using the slump test, because the concrete will not retain its shape when the cone is removed.
