Per §5.4.4 (Flow Test), the flow percentage is computed from the spread diameter (in cm) of the concrete pat by the formula:

A{'text': 'Flow% = (Spread diameter in cm + 25) divided by 25, all multiplied by 100', 'label': 'A'}
B{'text': 'Flow% = (Spread diameter in cm) multiplied by 100 only', 'label': 'B'}
C{'text': 'Flow% = 25 divided by (Spread diameter in cm), all multiplied by 100', 'label': 'C'}
D{'text': 'Flow% = (Spread diameter in cm - 25) divided by 25, all multiplied by 100', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. {'text': 'Flow% = (Spread diameter in cm - 25) divided by 25, all multiplied by 100', 'label': 'D'}
1. §5.4.4: 'Flow (%) = ((Spread Diameter in cm - 25) / 25) × 100.' 2. The pat is produced by dropping the flow table through 12.5 mm at 15 drops in 15 seconds; the spread is measured in six directions to the nearest 5 mm and averaged. Flow values range 0 to 150%. _Source: IGNOU ET-522 Block-2 Unit-5 Workability & Fresh Concrete-I, §5.4.4, p. 12_
