BS EN 12350-5:2009 Testing fresh concrete. Flow table test

BS EN 12350-5 specifies a method for determining the flow of fresh concrete. It is not applicable to self-compacting concrete, foamed concrete or no-fines concrete, nor to concrete with maximum aggregate size exceeding 63 mm.

The flow test is sensitive to changes in the consistency of concrete, which correspond to flow values between 340 mm and 600 mm. Beyond these extremes the flow table test may be unsuitable and other methods of determining the consistence should be considered.
