Book Influence of Fine Aggregate Grading on Properties of Concrete A Review of Literature Report 1

Download or read book Influence of Fine Aggregate Grading on Properties of Concrete A Review of Literature Report 1 written by W. O. Tynes and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of the literature on the influence of aggregate grading on the properties of concrete revealed a diversity of opinion concerning the optimum gradings of fine aggregates. In most of the investigations dealing with the amount of material passing the No. 100 sieve that will produce satisfactory concrete, it was indicated that less than 15% of this size material is desirable, and it was concluded that 10% is optimum for mass concrete. In general, the consensus was that fines cause an increase in the water requirement and influence air content. One of the studies reported indicated that high air content did not decrease the strength excessively for mass concrete and seemed to be beneficial. Therefore, it appears that a mass concrete mixture low in fines and having a high air content may prove satisfactory. It was generally concluded that the fine-aggregate grading influences in varying degrees the workability, durability, strength, water requirement, air content, bleeding, and density of concrete.

Book Aggregates in Concrete

Download or read book Aggregates in Concrete written by Mark Alexander and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together in one volume the latest research and information, this book provides a detailed guide to the selection and use of aggregates in concrete. After an introduction defining the purpose and role of aggregates in concrete, the authors present an overview of aggregate sources and production techniques, followed by a detailed study of their physical, mechanical and chemical properties. This knowledge is then applied to the use of aggregates in both plastic and hardened concretes, and in the overall mix design. Special aggregates and their applications are discussed in detail, as are the current main specifications, standards and tests.

Book Understanding the Rheology of Concrete

Download or read book Understanding the Rheology of Concrete written by N Roussel and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-12-20 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimating, modelling, controlling and monitoring the flow of concrete is a vital part of the construction process, as the properties of concrete before it has set can have a significant impact on performance. This book provides a detailed overview of the rheological behaviour of concrete, including measurement techniques, the impact of mix design, and casting. Part one begins with two introductory chapters dealing with the rheology and rheometry of complex fluids, followed by chapters that examine specific measurement and testing techniques for concrete. The focus of part two is the impact of mix design on the rheological behaviour of concrete, looking at additives including superplasticizers and viscosity agents. Finally, chapters in part three cover topics related to casting, such as thixotropy and formwork pressure. With its distinguished editor and expert team of contributors, Understanding the rheology of concrete is an essential reference for researchers, materials specifiers, architects and designers in any section of the construction industry that makes use of concrete, and will also benefit graduate and undergraduate students of civil engineering, materials and construction. Provides a detailed overview of the rheological behaviour of concrete, including measurement techniques, casting and the impact of mix design The estimating, modelling, controlling and monitoring of concrete flow is comprehensively discussed Chapters examine specific measurement and testing techniques for concrete, the impact of mix design on the rheological behaviour of concrete, particle packaging and viscosity-enhancing admixtures
