Download or read book Formwork for Concrete written by Mary Krumboltz Hurd and published by American Concrete Institute. This book was released on 2005 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formwork for Concrete has been written to serve a broad range of needs for information on formwork. For the experience designer or builder of formwork, it is a ready reference on material properties, design data, and construction suggestions. For the engineer-architect it adds guidance in relating details of the sturcture's design to the problems and possibilities of executing them in concrete. For the novice the book provides an introduction to many common formwork practices, explaining basic design principles and encouraging a rational rather than rule of thumb approach to formwork. -- book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of a laboratory investigation that was conducted for the purpose of validating mixer- uniformity requirements for roller-compacted concrete. The purpose of the investigation was to verify existing guidance or, if necessary, recommend changes to existing guidance. The investigation included both air-entrained and nonair-entrained concrete. The results indicate that existing guidance is appropriate for Vebe consistency, water content, coarse aggregate content, compressive strength, and air-content determinations. However, the results indicated that existing guidance could he too restrictive for the unit weight of air-free mortar determinations. A recommendation was made to consider revising current guidance on the allowable range for unit weight of air-free mortar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a State of the Art Report (STAR) produced by RILEM Technical Committee 254-CMS ‘Thermal Cracking of Mas-sive Concrete Structures’. Several recent developments related to the old problem of understanding/predicting stresses originated from the evolution of the hydration of concrete are at the origin of the creation this technical committee. Having identified a lack in the organization of up-to-date scientific and technological knowledge about cracking induced by hydration heat effects, this STAR aims to provide both practitioners and scientists with a deep integrated overview of consolidated knowledge, together with recent developments on this subject.

Download or read book Roller Compacted Concrete Dams written by CIGB ICOLD and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICOLD Bulletin 177 ‘Roller-Compacted Concrete Dams’ presents the state-of-the-art on roller-compacted concrete technology for dams, incorporating the advances of the RCC technology for dams over the last 15 years since the previous Bulletin on the topic was released in 2003. Hence, the present ICOLD Bulletin 177 supersedes ICOLD Bulletin 126 (‘Roller-compacted concrete dams - State of the art and case histories’, published in 2003) and ICOLD Bulletin 75 (‘Roller-Compacted Concrete for Gravity Dams’ published in 1989). While roller-compacted concrete technology could have still been considered a new technology in 2003, it is now true to say that construction by roller-compaction has become the standard approach for large concrete gravity dams. This Bulletin addresses all aspects of the planning, design, construction and performance of RCC in dams. Mixture proportioning and quality control are discussed and a comprehensive listing of references is included. Many aspects of RCC in dams have become better understood since the publication of Bulletin No 126 and the present Bulletin contains less information on the particular approaches applied in different countries, but includes more comprehensive information particularly in relation to design, mixture proportioning and construction. With greater understanding, it has further been possible to highlight more definitively the requirements of successful RCC dams, as well as the pitfalls and difficulties that can be associated with RCC dam design and construction. Le Bulletin CIGB 177, intitulé « Barrages en Béton Compacté au Rouleau » présente les dernières avancées en matière de technologie du béton compacté au rouleau pour les barrages intégrant les progrès de la technologie BCR pour les barrages au cours des 15 dernières années, depuis que le dernier bulletin sur le sujet a été publié en 2003. Par conséquent, le bulletin 177 remplace le bulletin 126 (« Barrages en béton compacté au rouleau - Technique actuelle et exemples », publié en 2003) et le bulletin 75 (« Béton compacté au rouleau pour barrages-poids - Technique actuelle » publié en 1989). Alors que la technologie du BCR pourrait encore être considérée comme une nouvelle technologie en 2003, il est maintenant vrai de dire que la construction par le compactage par rouleaux est devenue l'approche standard pour les grands barrage-poids en béton. Ce bulletin aborde tous les aspects de la planification, de la conception, de la construction et de la performance du BCR dans les barrages. Le dosage du mélange et le contrôle de la qualité sont discutés et une liste exhaustive des références est incluse. De nombreux aspects du BCR dans les barrages sont mieux compris depuis la publication du Bulletin no 126. Le présent bulletin contient moins d'informations sur les approches particulières appliquées dans différents pays, mais comprend des informations plus complètes notamment en ce qui concerne la conception, le dosage du mélange et la construction. Avec une plus grande compréhension, il a été possible de mettre en évidence les exigences des barrages en BCR réussis, ainsi que les pièges et les difficultés qui peuvent être associés à la conception et la construction du barrage en BCR.
