Properties of Sustainable Fresh Concrete Project | NIST
Nov 01, 2019 · The construction industry is becoming increasing reliant on pumping for the placement of concrete; thus, implying that a concrete must have the desired early age performance as specified by the engineer. This project will remove major technical barriers by providing the industry with measurement science tools to specify, qualify, and assure the pumpability of concrete at the job site.

Practical Tribometer to Estimate Pumpability of Fresh Concrete
parameters. Nowadays, the single experimental method to estimate the concrete pumpability is based on tribometrical measurements. From concrete composition, and fixed mechanical factors, the only method to estimate the pumpability is the abacus of Putzmeister. This abacus gives the pumping pressure from concrete slump value only.

Full-scale pumping tests of low-viscosity ultra-high
Some studies have focused on the relationship between the pumpability and the characteristics of the boundary layer, which is the interface between concrete and piping during pumping [,, ]. Ngo TT et al. [ 7 ] said that the friction of the interface between the concrete and the steel pipe plays a very important role in pumpability.

Assessing the Pumpability of Concrete
One of the early studies on the pumping of concrete is the paper published by Ede (12). The interesting observations of his study are that hydraulic conditions are present during concrete pumping and that the amount of friction is not related to the pressure applied, which in turns means that the energy loss in a straight length of

Sep 01, 2021 · In this study, a new method was proposed to improve concrete pumpability. The friction between concrete and the internal surface of the pipe can be reduced by externally injecting a small amount of a chemical agent called a friction-reducing agent (FRA) into the pipe. The new idea was experimentally implemented with real-scale concrete pumping of 112, 137, and 518 m (367, 449, and …
