Providing a method for predicting the concrete slump based on Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System

Concrete performance is of very high importance in civil engineering projects. One of the most common ways to measure the performance of concrete, is the slump test. To save time, money and materials, it is better to use intelligent methods in predicting the slump. Therefore, in this study a method...
