Consistency Vibrating Table Test

Used for determining the consistency of stiff to extremely dry concrete mixtures like those used in roller-compacted concrete mixtures. Density of the specimens is determined by determining the mass of the consolidated specimen and dividing by its volume. The unit is comprised of a vibrating table, which can be bolted to a floor or substantial base slab. A swing arm with a guide sleeve for the 50 lb (22.7kg) surcharge weight is attached to the base, which allows the weight to swing out of the way when filling the mold, but allows easy application of the weight to the top of the specimen in the mold prior to vibration. The test mold is 9.5" x 7.75"ID with handles for easy movement and is locked into place on the base with positioning tabs and wing nuts.
