Abstract:
Five concrete rheometers measured twelve fresh concretes in the first phase of a research program. Although a correlation exists among the rheometers tested, the absolute values they calculated for a given concrete were not identical. These rheometers ranked the concretes in the same order for both yield stress and viscosity with good statistical confidence. The correlations obtained will assist in the analysis and comparison of results from different rheometers in different laboratories.
