Mid-range water reducers give influences as super plasticizers’ effects in concrete in low cement contents by meeting this expections and in even higher water/cement ratio. In the study, the five different mid-range water reducer admixtures evaluated in terms of slump loss and compressive strength in two different cement dosage. After experimental studies, some of the mid-range water reducer admixtures were found to be more successful in reducing the loss of the concrete slump. It is thought that it's casting can be possible without the need for reinforcement with a new admixture when concrete producted by this type of admixtures send the construction site. But it must be pre-tested experimentally for long transport times. Keywords: Concrete, mid-range water reducer admixture, transportation time, slump.
