Limitations of The Slump Test
The slump test is suitable for slumps of medium to high workability, slump in the range of 25 – 125 mm, the test fails to determine the difference in workability in stiff mixes which have zero slump, or for wet mixes that give a collapse slump. It is limited to concrete formed of aggregates of less than 38 mm (1 inch).
