About
This is a little-known but very important study of the effect of concrete slump on the lateral pressure of fluid concrete in drilled shaft foundations. A major conclusion of this study was that the concrete slump must be at least 9 inches in order for the full fluid weight of the concrete column to be exerted against the sides of the drilled shaft. It is important to note that the test setup was of limited height (30 ft) and did not include the presence of a reinforcing cage in the test setup.
