“…Each test was performed using a poly(tetrafluoroethene) mini-slump cone on a flat sheet of poly(methyl methacrylate) marked with grid squares of 2 9 2 cm 2 . Freshly mixed paste was immediately poured into the cone, and then the cone was lifted as slowly as possible (\ 0.005 m/s [23]) to minimise inertial effects. After 1 min, a digital photograph was taken from directly above the resultant pat of material, from which the slump area was calculated using the ImageJ software, calibrated using the scaled grid.…”

“…The slump test was originally developed to determine the "workability" or "consistency" of fresh concrete, and the standard slump instrument is a tapered cylinder with a height of 30 cm, an upper diameter of 10 cm, and a bottom diameter of 20 cm [22]. The slurry was poured into the slump instrument and tamped.…”

“…Time to flow, for instance, from the Marsh cone test is related to apparent viscosity when modeled with cement's characteristics. The minislump spread is related to yield stress (BANFILL, 2006;GAO;FOURIE, 2015). These are techniques of fast execution and rapid implementation techniques, yet both need proper mixing methods to be repetitive.…”
