Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction site is using a concrete mix that frequently shows shear slump during testing. What are possible adjustments that can be made to improve the mix's cohesiveness?

💡 Hint: Consider what changes affect cohesiveness and cohesion.

Question 2

During a compacting factor test, the weight of the partially compacted concrete was found to be significantly lower than expected. What does this imply about the concrete's workability, and what steps should be taken?

💡 Hint: Think about the relationship of weight in compacted versus loose concrete.
