Which consequence results when excessive vibration occurs in concrete columns during setting?

A)Decreased bond with reinforcement bars
B)Increased compressive strength concrete
C)Accelerated hydration cementitious material
D)Reduced susceptibility freeze-thaw damage

💡 Explanation

Excessive vibration causes segregation, where coarse aggregates settle, because the vibration overcomes the fluid resistance maintaining suspension; therefore bond strength decreases, rather than increasing compressive strength which needs uniform distribution.
