Depends on the grade of concrete, the mode of reinforcement
being used and the method employed at sute for placing the

Answer / vijay kumar.g
depend upon the work(is:456-2000)
mass concrete and lightly reinforced sections(beams columns,walls and slabs)25-75mm
heavily reinforced sections(beams columns,walls and slabs) and pumped concrete and trench fill 50-100mm
flow able concrete 100(+/-)20

Answer / sakthi
FROM THE SLUMP TESTING EQUIPMENT WE CAN FIND OUT THE RESULT
OF SLUMP.
BUT,
MORE THAN 125MM IS HIGH FLOWING CONCRETE,SO NOT ADVISABLE
FOR CONCRETING.
LESS THAN 25MM IS VERY HARDEN CONCRETE HAS LESS PLASTICITY.
FROM 25MM TO 125MM WE CAN USE AS PER TYPE OF CONCRETING.

I used Etabs software to analyse a high-rise building. And I want to use templated UBC-codes inside to calculate the Seismic load. My question is: whether or not I have to control the seismic load by base shear load which is manual calculation? (just for more clarification: I can control this by input the scale factor into Eartquake definition in Etabs) I would highly appreciate your answer.
