Consistency Test of Cement

Normal Consistency- It is defined as the percentage of water by weight of cement which produces a consistency which permits a plunger of 10 mm diameter to percentage up to a depth of 5 mm to 7 mm above the bottom of vicat's mould.

Important Terms:-

(i) Diameter of Plunger=10 mm

(ii) Firstly, 25% weight of water is used which will mix with cement. Then used 26%, 27% and more.

(iii) Repeat this procedure till reading not comes 5 mm to 7 mm.

(iv) Entire mixing and filling of the mould including testing should be completed within 3 to 5 minutes.

Test Procedure:-

(i) Take 400 gm of cement sample.

(ii) 25% water i.e. 400X25/100=100 gm of water is added and mix properly.

(iii) After mixing it is kept in mould and also kept on the vicat apparatus surface.

(iv) 10 mm diameter needle will just touch on the surface of the mould and then freely fall. Suppose reading comes=10 mm. So, it will required to repeat the test till result will not comes in the range of 5mm to 7 mm.

(v)  Now increase the % of water. So, taken 26% (104 gm) of water and again filled in mould and again test procedure will repeat. If reading will comes=7 mm

(vi) Normal Consistency=Wt. of water/Wt. of cement X 100

                                       = 104/100 X 100
                               
                                       = 26 %
