CIVL 3137 25
Workability
workability (n.) the ease with which theconcrete ingredients (gravel, sand, cement,water) can be mixed, transported, placed,consolidated, and finished with minimumloss of homogeneity.
CIVL 3137 26
Workability
workability = consistency + cohesion
refers to the fluidity of the concrete and how easily it can be transported, placed, and
consolidated without inhomogeneity
refers to the stickiness of the concrete and how easily it can be placed and finished
without inhomogeneity
CIVL 3137 27
Inhomogeneity
segregation (n.) the tendency for the gravel particles to separate from the rest of the ingredients.
bleeding (n.) the tendency for the mixing water to separate from the rest of the ingredients.
CIVL 3137 28
Causes of Segregation
improper placement
too much mixing water
over-vibration
CIVL 3137 29
Causes of Bleeding
too little cement
too much water
over-vibration
over-working
