Should surface vibrators be used on concrete with high workability?
What does high workability refer to?
Surface vibrators apply vibration to which part of the concrete?
Consider where the vibration is initiated.
Is it advisable to use surface vibrators on concrete with a workability greater than 75 mm?
Think about the effects of high workability on surface quality.
You are in charge of a project using a concrete mix that has a workability of 80 mm. What should you recommend regarding the use of surface vibrators? Justify your answer.
Reflect on the risks associated with high workability.
Consider a scenario where a large slab needs consolidation. If its thickness is 200 mm and heavily reinforced, discuss the implications of using surface vibrators versus internal vibrators; which would be more effective and why?
Focus on the effectiveness based on thickness and reinforcement density.
