The Compacting Factor Test Of Cement Concrete Determines Its

Answer- D. Workability

The compacting factor test of cement concrete determines its Workability.

Solution

Workability of concrete can be measured using slump, compaction factor and Vee bee time. The compacting factor is defined as the ratio of the weight of partially compacted concrete to the weight of fully compacted concrete.

Degree of Workability	Compaction factor	Use for which concrete is suitable
Very low	0.78-0.80	Vibrated concrete for pavement road
Low	0.80-0.85	Mass concrete foundation without vibration
Medium	0.85-0.92	Less workable, flat slabs, manually compacted reinforced concrete
High	0.92-1.00	Highly reinforced concrete
