what are allowable slump

Question

Accepted Answer

Allowable slump refers to the range of acceptable slump measurements for concrete.

The allowable slump range varies depending on the specific project and its requirements.
Slump is measured by the amount of settling that occurs when a sample of concrete is placed in a cone-shaped mold.
The range of allowable slump is typically specified in the project's design documents or by the engineer in charge.
If the slump falls outside of the allowable range, adjustments may need to be made to the concrete mix or placement process.
For example, a project may specify an allowable slump range of 3-5 inches.
