Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You are conducting a J-Ring test and observe a large height difference in your readings. What could be the potential issues with the SCC batch? Discuss how you would address these issues.

💡 Hint: Consider all elements that go into the mix design.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given a J-Ring test result indicating subpar flowability, outline a series of adjustments you would suggest for the SCC mix design to improve results.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how each component influences flow and quality.
