What is the acceptable percentage of slump in Mix concrete?

Answer Posted / 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.

Is This Answer Correct ?    3 Yes 5 No
