Product Code : EL-CTLE-10298
Quick Answer:
A U Shape Box Apparatus is used to determine the filling and passing ability of self-compacting concrete (SCC). The stainless steel U box has two sections separated by a gate fitted with reinforcing bars; the left hand section is filled with about 20 litres of concrete, the gate is lifted, and the concrete flows upward into the other section, after which the height of the concrete in both sections is measured to assess filling and passing ability.
The U Shape box apparatus is used to determine the filling and passing ability of self-compacting concrete (SCC). The U box is made of stainless steel, consisting of three 12 mm dia. rebars, and is mounted on a frame with a fixing mechanism. Reinforcing bar with nominal diameter of 134 mm are installed at the gate with centre to centre spacing of 50 mm, which creates a clear spacing of 35 mm between bars. The left hand section is filled with about 20 liter of concrete, then the gate is lifted and the concrete flows upwards into the other section, and the height of the concrete in both sections is measured.
