Description
AZA 1111 V FUNNEL – Flow Time Testing for Self-Compacting Concrete
The AZA 1111 V Funnel is a standardized apparatus designed to determine the flow time of freshly mixed Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) through a narrow opening. This V Funnel test is part of a broader family of SCC tests including the slump flow and J-Ring tests, but focuses specifically on flow time under gravity, offering key insight into concrete viscosity and stability.This test evaluates the viscosity and flowability of SCC, helping assess whether a mix will flow smoothly into complex formworks without segregation or blocking.
This V Funnel test is part of a broader family of SCC tests including the slump flow and J-Ring tests, but focuses specifically on flow time under gravity, offering key insight into concrete viscosity and stability. The V-shaped funnel ensures that the concrete has only one route to exit, simulating narrow passes in reinforcement-laden sections.V Funnel, AZA 1111, SCC test, flow time test, self-compacting concrete, concrete testing equipment.V Funnel AZA 1111 tests flow time of self-compacting concrete (SCC).

⚙️ Key Features & Use Cases
-
Ideal for testing SCC viscosity in quality control labs
-
Simple, fast, and standardized operation
- Remove the bottom gate to allow concrete to flow freely.
-
Suitable for construction sites, precast plants, and R&D centers
-
Complies with EN 12350-9 and EFNARC guidelines
-
Optional accessories include reversible bottom gate and holding stand
🔬 Testing Procedure
-
Place the V Funnel apparatus securely on its stand.
-
Fill the funnel with freshly mixed SCC up to the brim, ensuring no air pockets.
-
Remove the bottom gate to allow concrete to flow freely.
-
Use a stopwatch to record the time taken for the funnel to empty.
-
Record the time (in seconds) – typical values range from 6 to 12 seconds.
Higher times suggest higher viscosity or reduced workability, while shorter times indicate excellent flow. If concrete blocks or sticks, the mix may require modification.
