These test methods cover the determination of the relative quantity of mixing water that will bleed from a sample of freshly mixed concrete. Two test methods that differ primarily in the degree of vibration to which the concrete sample is subjected are included. The two test methods are not expected to yield the same test results when samples of concrete from the same batch are tested by each method. When various concretes are to be compared, all the tests should be conducted using the same method, and the sample masses, if the batches are of similar unit weight, should not differ by more than 1 kg [2 lb]. The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined.
