Description
Overview:
The Slump Cone Baseplate is a robust metal platform used in concrete testing to assess workability by the slump method. It provides a flat, rigid, non-absorbent surface for placing a standard slump cone and carrying out the test in line with BS 1881-102 and EN 12350-2. By supporting the cone during filling, rodding and lifting, the baseplate helps produce consistent, repeatable measurements of slump for quality control on site or in the laboratory. Built for regular use in construction and civil engineering, it is durable, easy to clean and straightforward to handle. Use it with a compliant slump cone and tamping rod to verify mix consistency, monitor batch performance and support decision-making before placing concrete.
Key Features:
- Complies with BS 1881-102 and EN 12350-2 for reliable, repeatable testing
- Strong, durable metal construction suitable for site and lab environments
- Flat, rigid, non-absorbent surface to minimise deflection and moisture uptake
- Compatible with standard slump cones and tamping rods used in the UK
- Stable platform aids vertical cone lift and accurate slump measurement
- Easy to clean after testing; resists cement paste build-up
- Portable and simple to set up on suitable level ground or benches
- Practical design for frequent use by tradespeople, technicians and QA teams
Typical Applications:
Used by site engineers, concrete suppliers, testing labs and contractors for routine slump tests before placement, during delivery checks and for mix adjustments. Suitable for pre-pour verification, batch monitoring, troubleshooting segregation or water content issues, training and demonstration of the slump testing procedure in education and apprenticeships.
Also known as:
Concrete slump test baseplate, slump test plate, slump base, slump cone plate, Abrams cone base, slump board, concrete consistency test plate, slump cone test base.
