The cone is carefully lifted off, allowing the wet concrete to slump under its own weight. The slump in inches is measured in the manner shown. Unit 6 Concrete Construction Part Ⅰ Illustrated Words and Concepts Figure 6-2 The Growth of Compressive Strength in Concrete over Time Moist-cured concrete is still gaining strength after 6 months, whereas Air-dried concrete virtually stops curing altogether.
