Concrete Strength and Compaction Quiz

The strength of concrete is affected by the degree of its ______

It is vital, therefore, that the consistency of the mix be such that the concrete can be ______, placed and finished sufficiently

The consistency of the mix should allow the concrete to be transported, placed, and finished ______ and without segregation

Admixtures can help in improving the consistency of the mix and prevent ______

Concrete should have the right consistency to ensure it can be transported, placed, and finished ______

The strength of concrete is not affected by its compaction level.

Admixtures can improve the ability of concrete to flow and prevent segregation.

The consistency of concrete should allow it to be transported without segregation, but placement and finishing are not important factors.

Concrete with the right consistency can be easily transported but may still segregate during placement and finishing.

It is crucial that the consistency of the concrete mix allows for easy transportation, placement, and sufficient finishing.
