To measure the total water content of fresh concrete
To provide an estimation of the total water content in the fresh
concrete and, with the absorption of the aggregates determined, provides
an estimate of the mixing water content
As a quality control tool to check the water content of as-delivered
concrete and to calculate the water/cement ratio if the cement content
of the tested concrete is known
To determine the water absorption of coarse and fine aggregates
representative of the aggregates used in the concrete
The method consists of drying a test specimen of fresh concrete using a
relatively high-power microwave oven within a short period of time. The
difference in mass between the fresh and dry concrete test specimen will be
the water content of that test specimen. Water content per unit volume of
concrete can be determined by knowing the unit weight of that concrete
Supplied with Turntable for efficient and homogeneous operation
