ABSTRACT:
A measuring apparatus (1) for concrete materials, comprising an aggregate hopper (3) as aggregate feed means for feeding fine aggregate (2) as aggregate, a water supply pipe (4) as water supply means, an aggregate measuring bin (51) for storing and measuring the fine aggregate (2) supplied from the aggregate hopper (3), a measuring tank (5) for storing the fine aggregate (2) supplied from the aggregate hopper (3) as water-immersed aggregate together with water supplied through the water supply pipe (4), a load cell (6) as water-immersed aggregate mass measuring means for measuring the mass of the water-immersed aggregate in the measuring tank, an electrode sensor (7) as water level measuring means for measuring the water level of the water-immersed aggregate in the measuring tank (5), and a water level holding device (8) as water level holding means for holding the water level of the water-immersed aggregate in the measuring tank (5) at a desired water level.
