4.0 DISCUSSION
4.1 What are the main compositions of concrete mixtures?
4.2 How can you determine concrete grade?
4.3 What is the density of concrete?
4.4 How do you classify the density of concrete?

Slump test is adopted in the laboratory or during the progress of work in the field for determining consistency of
concrete where nominal maximum size of aggregate does not exceed 40mm. Any slump specimen which
collapses or shears off laterally gives incorrect results and if this occurs the test is repeated, only the true slump
should be measured.

*Your report should include the following:

i) Problem face during experiment
ii) Why the slump result are different
iii) Briefly discuss the importance of a proper water to cement ratio
iv) Explain your result with discussion based on Section D(Concrete Works) Standard Spesification for Building
Works 2014 (JKR)
