An Investigation of Coarse Aggregate, Water-Cement Ratio, and Silika Fume on Frost Resistance of HS Concrete

It is well known that the characteristics of concrete components greatly affect the durability of high strength/high performance (HS/HP) concrete against frost action. Undoubtedly, precise recognition of this relationship leads &#10to appropriate selection of the type and proportions of concrete components in any particular project. In the current study, the aim is to investigate the possibilit...

Effects of Aggregate Grading and Admixture/Filler on Self-Consolidating Concrete

Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is becoming a popular choice in concrete industry due to ease of placement in congested reinforcements, reduced labor and equipment, nonsegregating character, and smooth surface. Due to its sensitivity to aggregate grading, proportions, admixtures, and filler contents and being a relatively new material, more information are required on the effects of aggregate...

internal curing of high strength self consolidating concrete by saturated lightweight aggregate - effects on material properties

self-desiccation is the major source of autogenous shrinkage and crack formation in low water-binder ratio (w/b) concretes which can be reduced by internal curing. in this paper performance of high strength self consolidating concrete (hs-scc) with w/b of 0.28 and 0.33 including autogenous shrinkage, drying shrinkage, compressive strength, and resistance to freezing-thawing was investigated. th...
