Bleeding
of
Concrete
With
the
use
of
manufactured
sand
and
manufac-
tured aggregate
in
the concrete with
7.5
cm
(3
in.) slump
it
is natural
to anticipate
the
problem
of
'Bleeding'
and its
collection
below
the
underside of rubble
in
rubble
concrete.
An
idea
of the bleeding
in the
manufactured
aggregate manufactured
sand
matrix
concrete
can be
had
from
the
following
data
collected
in
the
1959-60
season
at
the
field
control
laboratory.
The
mix
had
270 kg/ cu

and

At the

Invariably
bleeding
ended
in
120-150
minutes.
Inspite
of
using
manufactured
sand
it
can
be said
that
the
rate
of
bleeding
is low
probably
because
of the
presence
of 6-7
percent
of
200
fraction
in
the
same
and
of
entrained
air, besides the cement having
a
fineness
generally
over
3000
