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
