Answer / er. amar
Pumpable concrete means the concrete mix having small size
of aggregates and having proportions of water and cement mix
in proper quantity but non pumpable has big size of
aggregates which sometimes during traveling through pipes
gets stuck at some place and due to which it creates problem
for concreting any structure.
