Thus, for heavyweight concrete, the segregation may be determined by measuring the difference density in a vertical direction. In this study, a simple reliable method, i.e., the density variation method, that considers the variation in vertical layers of the concrete is modeled to assess dynamic segregation of heavyweight concrete. In addition, 35 heavyweight concrete mixtures with high consistency were designed with various mixing parameters, and the results were compared with the model findings. The suggested test method was also compared with a conventional method (column segregation test by wet-sieving), and an equivalent segregation limit was determined. A strong linear relation (R-2 : 0.86) was found between the density variation method and column segregation test, and a segregation coefficient limit for segregation of heavyweight concrete is recommended as 1.7 %.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessheavyweight concretedynamic stabilitydensity variation methodcolumn segregation testArticle4853331334010.1520/JTE201801962-s2.0-85064623337Q3WOS:000562137000001Q3
