Definition
Zero Slump Concrete is a concrete mix with so little water that it has a slump of zero when tested.
Purpose
The purpose of zero slump concrete is to create a highly dense and compact concrete mix, often used in precast applications where high strength and durability are required.
Examples of Use
- Precast Concrete Products: Manufacturing items like pipes, pavers, and blocks.
- Pavement: Constructing rigid pavements that require high compressive strength.
- Industrial Floors: Creating durable and wear-resistant concrete floors.
Related Terms
- Slump Test: A test used to measure the consistency and workability of concrete.
- Dry Mix: A concrete mix with minimal water content.
- Compaction: The process of densifying concrete to remove air pockets and increase strength.
Notes
Zero slump concrete requires precise mixing and compaction techniques to ensure the desired properties are achieved. It is not suitable for applications requiring high workability and flow.
