Cement and Concrete Sectional Committee, CED 02
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 5) (First Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalized by the Cement and Concrete Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division
Council.
Testing plays an important role in controlling the quality of cement concrete work. Systematic testing of the raw
materials, the fresh concrete and the hardened concrete, is an inseparable part of any quality control programme
for concrete. This helps achieve a higher efficiency of the materials used and greater assurance of the performance
of the concrete, in regard to workability, strength and durability. The test methods used should be simple, direct
and convenient to apply. This standard was formulated with this objective in view.
This standard was first published in 1959. In this revision, it was decided to review and update the various
existing test methods of fresh concrete taking into consideration the latest international practices and developments
in this field in the country, and also introduced certain new test methods wherever required. In the process, the
various existing test methods covered in IS 1199 : 1959 ‘Methods of sampling and analysis of concrete’, have
been revised. The revision of the standard is being brought out taking into consideration primarily the corresponding
ISO Standards while also examining the other best practices world over and in the country. In addition, test
methods for determination of properties of new types of concrete like self compacting concrete have been included,
covering tests such as consistency, viscosity, passing ability and segregation resistance. Also, for better understanding
and implementation, some of the other test methods which were spread over in other Indian Standards have been
brought together under the fold of IS 1199 as its various parts, such as the setting time of concrete by penetration
method and, water soluble and acid soluble chlorides in mortar and concrete. This is with a view to making the
standard complete in all respects, and rendering it a comprehensive source of provisions for testing of concrete
and reference in other Indian Standards.
In this revision, IS 1199 has been split in to nine parts.The other parts in the series are:
Part 1 Sampling of fresh concrete
Part 2 Determination of consistency of fresh concrete
Part 3 Determination of density of fresh concrete
Part 4 Determination of air content of fresh concrete
Part 6 Tests on fresh self compacting concrete
Part 7 Determination of setting time of concrete by penetration resistance
Part 8 Determination of water soluble and acid soluble chlorides in mortar and concrete
Part 9 Analysis of freshly mixed concrete
This standard (Part 5) covers the specifications regarding the shape and dimensions of concrete test specimens for
strength tests and the methods of making and curing these test specimens.
These test methods shall be applicable as and when published in place of the corresponding provisions given in
IS 516 : 1959 ‘Methods of tests for strength of concrete’, and will supersede the same.
This revision of the standard has been taken up to incorporate the modifications found necessary in the light of
experience gained in its use and also to bring it in line with the latest development on the subject. Significant
provisions in this revision are highlighted below:
a) These provisions have been shifted from IS 516 to IS 1199, as it involves fresh concrete.
b) More details have been given for compaction of concrete (including for special concretes like FRC and
SCC) and guidance has been included for preferred method of compaction, as per the slump of concrete.
