Slump is measured by placing a slump cone on a flat surface and filling it with concrete. The cone is then lifted and the slump is measured.
Place a slump cone on a flat surface
Fill the cone with concrete in three layers
Compact each layer with a steel rod
Remove the excess concrete from the top of the cone
Lift the cone vertically and measure the slump
Repeat the process for consistency
The slump value for pumpable concrete varies depending on the mix design and application.
Slump value is the measure of the consistency of concrete.
Pumpable concrete typically has a higher slump value than traditional concrete.
The slump value for pumpable concrete can range from 150mm to 200mm.
The mix design and application will determine the appropriate slump value for pumpable concrete.

- Q4. Questions related to basic rac( vapour compression refrigeration cycle) ,theory of machine(gear,shaft),strength of materials(basic theory,types of beams etc
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: Normally in spec(shapoorji pallonji engineering construction) ,they give maximum focus on career. The company make a list of names from college...you have minimum 80% in 10th and 12th . And u have minimum 8.5 cgpa in college
Tips: Be serious from the beginning of your 1st year
Round: Test
Experience: In written test, you have 2 papers. Technical and non-technical. In technical round you have i.c engine (major), theory of machine, strength of material, production, industrial, refrigeration and air conditioning etc. But don’t be afraid. The questions are very simple. You just need to overlook on the syllabus. There will be 40 questions in 20 minutes ... So don’t expect numerical questions
.direct theory and formula based questions in non-technical paper you have 40 questions consists of only English .no apti or anything. If you are strong in vocab that is good...if not den it’s ok. Try to cover grammar part.as grammar has 10 marks weight-age.
Tips: I may suggest that if you are preparing for gate, any core company written you can easily crack.
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Listen g.d will always be a fish market. Just have focus on the key words of the topic.ex, in my topic key words were Mr. Modi and infrastructure. One thing that this company doesn’t give more emphasis on g.d .you just need to speak.
Tips: Dont worry about g.d. simply this company checks whether you can at least speak in english or not.. G.d. is not an elimination round.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: 1st search that what are the scopes that any engineering construction company has for mechanical engineers... My answer was that for design of duct in air conditioning system, mechanical electrical plumbing,hvac system (heating,ventilating,and air conditioning) for all the above system any construction company needs a mechanical engineer. Another thing is that mechanical engineers are the back
bone of any core company. Wherever there is a machine, there will be a mechanical engineer.Another thing never tell them that you want higher studies. I answered," I have a rough idea related to technology during my 4 years course. Now I just want 2 explore that are the practical applications of those theoretical knowledge"
Tips: Have a brief idea about what is the company ,who are the key persons,foundation of company
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The procedue is very simple.the questions are very simple.have maximum focus on your summer training. In my case out of total 40 minutes interview 30 minutes discussion was related to my project.. 10 minutes from theory of machine(gear,shaft),mechanics of material(types of beam) and last h.r interview.
Tips: Prepare for gate ..you will be having 100% confidence during your personal interview. And finally all the best for your future...any query you can stay in contact with me via facebook.
Skill Tips: If you are preparing for gate,you will surely get a core job...you can buy made easy hand book for short notes of all the btech course. It will also be helpful for your gate preparation a ..you can get it from nearest book stall or online.
