Abstract:
Considering the increasing cases related to fraud of construction materials like cement, sand, and gravel, the fresh concrete class type identifier system would be a big help to the clients or customers. In this study, the researchers aim to develop a device that easily identifies the class types of fresh concrete using electronic modules. The temperature sensor can be embedded in concrete and used to sense the internal temperature of the curing concrete (Manuel Ramos, 2017). The Oven dry method is widely used for the determination of water content. The loss of weight that happens due to drying results in the measurement of the moisture content of the sample (Farhan Khan, 2020). The study was conducted and completed through actual testing. The result was accepted within theoretical ranges.
Based on the information above, the Fresh Concrete class type identifier system using electronic modules can function with reference to the standard temperature content of the fresh concrete as well as the workability of the moisture content through the Moisture Sensor.
