Abstract
We studied integrative evaluation method for the PC-Grout fluidity with using 14 varied test-samples, by focusing on the V-funnel flow time from tilting test (JSCE Method), and the flow value from the flow test, which are widely used to evaluate the fluidity of PC-Grout in Japan. These current evaluation techniques are unique to Japan. So for future, we searched correlation with Marsh Corn method prescribed at ISO and EN 445:1977. We searched the efficiency of quality control also, by using our newly introduced funnel equipment (automatic measuring device that used a scale together). Each fluidity evaluation test result showed the strong correlation. The V-funnel flow time and the flow value showed the indication of the yield values and the plastic viscosities, which indicate rheological characteristics. New funnel equipment (with automatic measuring device) showed the efficiency on quality control of the PC-GROUT.
