AIR ENTRAINMENT METER:

AS PER IS: 1199 - 1959.

 

Introduction: As Entrainment of air in limited percentage improves durability of concrete and very low percentages deteriorate it, measurement of air entrapped in freshly mixed concrete becomes important. The use of chemical additives to increase workability of concrete requires an air content check to be made. Air Entrainment meters are used to determine air entrained in freshly mixed concrete by pressure method.

The apparatus consists of

  • A pressure tight flanged cylindrical measuring bowl of 0.005 cubic meter capacity for maximum size of aggregate 38mm.
