EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of BS 1881-129 testing. This part of this British Standard covers the method by which the density of semi-dry, partially compacted concrete can be obtained to determine the amount of material required to form a volume of 1 cubic metre, also known as "yield".
The method is valid for plain concrete made with aggregate with a nominal maximum aggregate size of D-max 40 mm or less. This standard provides guidelines for sampling and testing fresh concrete to determine its density, air content and other properties that may affect its performance.
The test involves filling a standard container with freshly mixed concrete, ramming it with a specified number of strokes, and determining its mass and volume.
The density of partially compacted semi-dry fresh concrete can be calculated using mass and volume measurements. The test can be used to evaluate the consistency of the concrete mix and its suitability for the intended application.
EUROLAB assists manufacturers with BS 1881-129 test compliance. Our test experts offer the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories to you, our manufacturers and suppliers, with professional working mission and principles.
