Ref Standard: ASTM C143
Date of Test: 20-Jul-20

Measurement of Uncertainty Calculations - for Slump of Fresh Concrete

Equipment Measuring Tape: ATS-CLE-0687

INDIRECT VERIFICATION :

1) Estimation of Uncertainty due to Relative Repeatability of test ( Urep ):


Type of error/distribution associated with : Type "A"

Observations :

Calculations of standard deviation of readings observed


x y x-y (x - y)2 Σ Where,
185 6.7 44.4 x = Actual Observations
185 6.7 44.4 y = Average
180 1.7 2.8 Σ = SUM ( x-y )2
178 183
175 -3.3 11.1 δ = √ Σ / n-1
175 -3.3 11.1
170 -8.3 69.4 n = Total No. of Observations
Urep = δ / √ n

Standard Deviation, d = ÖS /(n-1) = 6.06


Uncertainty due to repeatability, Urep = δ/√n =
Urep = 2.5 mm

2) Estimation of uncertainity associated with relative resolution of the machine (Ures) : a/2√3
Type of error/distribution associated with: Rectangular, Type "B"

where, a= r/F*100, (where F is the point under consideration (linear measurement in range)
r = resolution of the equipment used

r, Resolution of the equipment 1 mm


F, the point under consideration 180 mm
a = r/F*100 0.5556 mm

Uncertainity due to resolution, Ures = a/2√3 = 0.2 mm

3) Estimation of std uncertainity associated with measuring equipment, measuring tape(U mtp)
Type of error/distribution associated with: Rectangular, Type "B"

For 0-1m length (from calibration certificate Ref D/1188/20)


Coverage factor mentioned in the calibration certificate, k= 2

Uncertainity due to length measurement, U mtp 0.5 mm


Combined Uncertainty, (Uc) = √ (Urep)2 + (Ures)2 + (U mtp)2

Combined Uncertainty, (Uc) = √ (2.5)2 + (0.2 )2 + ( 0.5)2

= 2.5 mm
Coverage factor, k = 2
Expanded Uncertainty = k x combined uncertainty = 5 mm

Reporting of results :

The above reported Expanded Uncertainty is based on the standard uncertainty multiplied by a
coverage factor k = 2, providing a level of confidence of approximately 95%.

Hence,

Slump of fresh concrete** = 178 + 5 mm

** Slump is reported to the nearest 5mm. Hence, the uncertainity, too, is reported to the nearest 5mm.
