PURPOSE<br />

To understand and perform various tests on cement, aggregates and concrete.<br />

INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES<br />

• To do tests on cement as per IS codes of practice<br />

• To do tests on fine and coarse aggregates according to IS codes of Practice<br />

• To do tests on fresh and hardened concrete as pr IS codes of practice<br />

LIST OF EXPERIMENTS<br />

Review of the following topics of civil engineering:<br />

• TESTS ON CEMENT : specific Gravity, Fineness Specific surface, Soundness, consistency, initial and<br />

final setting time, compressive Strength of cement<br />

• TESTS ON FINE AGGREGATE<br />

o Size distribution of particles<br />

o Specific gravity/voids Ratio<br />

o Bulking of sand<br />

o Uniformity Co­efficient and fineness modulus<br />

• TESTS ON COARSE AGGREGATE : Particle size Uniformity Co­Efficient and fineness modulus, mixing<br />

of aggregates ­ flakiness index, elongation index, sieve analysis, specific gravity, crushing and impact<br />

strength and Abrasion test.<br />

• TESTS ON FRESH AND HARDENED CONCRETE : Slump test, compaction factor test. Tests for<br />

compressive strength­split tensile strength­modulus of elasticity­modulus of rupture.<br />
