What does a slump mean in concrete?

The term slump used in concrete means the thickness or thinness of the concrete. The slump is measured by filling a 12" cylinder up with concrete, then flipping it over and pulling the cylinder up.

For example, if the concrete falls 6" from the top of the cylinder, that concrete is on a 6" slump.
