238.1R-08: Report on Measurements of Workability and Rheology of Fresh Concrete

Rheology - the science dealing with flow of materials, including studies of deformation of hardened concrete, the handling and placing of freshly mixed concrete, and the behavior of slurries, pastes, and the like.

This report provides a comprehensive view of workability of fresh concrete and a critical review of the tests available to measure workability and rheological performance of fresh concrete. The report discusses the factors affecting the performance of fresh concrete and provides a better understanding of the issues related to the design of workable concrete, from no flow (zero-slump) to flow like a liquid (self-consolidating concrete). Available in hard copy or PDF format..

To learn more or to order this document, go to 238.1R-08: Report on Measurements of Workability and Rheology of Fresh Concrete. $78.50 (ACI members $48.00); Order Code 238108.EM.
