It measures the consistency of the concrete, usually at the jobsite. In this test, concrete is placed in a 300 mm high truncated cone and compacted by hand with a rod and the mold is removed from the concrete and placed next to it. The distance the concrete goes down from the original 300 mm is the measured. Too great the settlements indicate excessive water, and a very small settlement indicates the mixture will be too difficult to place properly.
