Süleyman Gökçe, H.; Andiç-Çakir, Ö.
Several segregation evaluation methods have been developed for concrete; however, none of them have been specially focused on heavyweight concrete, which has more of a tendency toward segregation because of differences in density of paste matrix to heavy aggregate. Thus, for heavyweight concrete, the segregation may be determined by measuring the difference density in a vertical direction. In this study, a simple reliable method, i.e., the density variation method, that considers the variation in vertical layers of the concrete is modeled to assess dynamic segregation of heavyweight concrete. In addition, 35 heavyweight concrete mixtures with high consistency were designed with various mixing parameters, and the results were compared with the model findings. The suggested test method was also compared with a conventional method (column segregation test by wet-sieving), and an equivalent segregation limit was determined. A strong linear relation (R2: 0.86) was found between the density variation method and column segregation test, and a segregation coefficient limit for segregation of heavyweight concrete is recommended as 1.7 %.

Gökçe, H. Süleyman; Andiç-Çakır, Özge
Bleeding is one important indicator that is related to the physical and mechanical properties of fresh and hardened concrete. Standards generally prefer methodologies that are similar to one another to measure the bleeding of fresh concrete. The preferred test apparatus used in the standards is troublesome because it requires a manual test procedure and repeated measurements until final setting of the fresh concrete. The functional bleeding test apparatus presented in this study will ease test performance and eliminate the faults caused by the test procedure and the experimenter.
