A Comprehensive Method for Concrete Mix Design
Author: Janamian, K.Publisher: Materials Research Forum LLC
ISBN: 1644900580
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
A novel method of concrete mix design is presented. Tests with various constituent materials are reported in great detail. Both laboratory tests and applications in industry show the method to be very successful for all kinds of normal constituent materials, including silica fume, ground granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, natural pozzolans, blended cement, fine and coarse aggregates, water, air entraining admixtures, plasticizers and super-plasticizers.
Concrete Mixture Proportioning
Author: Francois de LarrardPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780419235002
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
The design of concrete mixes is becoming increasingly complex, with the addition of new materials in the compounds, such as organic admixtures, fibres and supplementary cementitious materials. Moreover, the list of properties which concretes are required to possess for certain applications has increased, and interest is developing in rheology, durability, deformability and whole-life behaviour. This book presents a number of simple models for the understanding of a concrete system, and provides the techniques for developing more sophisticated models for the practical design of concrete mixes.

Computer Modelling of Concrete Mixtures
Author: Joe DewarPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0203031148
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The complexity of specifications and the number of materials options available today for concrete production mean that the traditional procedure of making trial mixes is now unnecessary, expensive and time consuming. Using J.D Dewar's research, this book shows how a small amount of materials data can be used confidently to predict the composition o

Book Description
Thoroughly revised and updated, the third edition of this popular textbook continues to provide a comprehensive coverage of the main construction materials for undergraduate students of civil engineering and construction related courses. It creates an understanding of materials and how they perform through a knowledge of their chemical and physical structure, leading to an ability to judge their behaviour in service and construction. Materials covered include; metals and alloys, concrete, bituminous materials, brickwork and blockwork, polymers and fibre composites. Each material is discussed in terms of: structure; strength and failure; durability; deformation; practice and processing. The sections on concrete, polymers and fibre composites have been significantly revised. Descriptions of important properties are related back to the structure and forward to basic practical considerations. With its wealth of illustrations and reader-friendly style and layout Construction Materials.
Practical Concrete Mix Design
Author: Avijit ChaubeyPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000767248
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
Practical Concrete Mix Design has been compiled to help readers understand the concrete mix design methodology, including formulas and tables involved in the pertinent steps. This book helps engineers understand the mix design procedure, through illuminating every possible explanation for each step of mix design, limitations given by standards, and practical guides on tailor-making concrete to meet specific requirements. The construction industry needs engineers/experts who can reduce the costs of concrete, and thereby increase their profitability. This book shows effective methods for optimizing concrete and simultaneously achieving the desired properties of concrete. It covers why, how, and when with respect to concrete proportioning and optimization. It further provides the necessary skills for engineers to hone their skills in doing so, understanding the risks involved, and troubleshooting related problems.
Concrete Mix Design, Quality Control and Specification, (with CD ROM), Second Edition
Author: Ken W. DayPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780419243304
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
The latest edition of this established book has been brought completely up-to-date with recent advances in concrete technology. A practical reference, it illustrates how computers and high-tech testing equipment can save time and money in controlling concrete. The philosophies and methods can be applied to a full range of types of concrete and on straight forward to advance construction projects. On the CD ROM the author gives live colour displays with spoken commentaries of all Conad products and their origins and provides free working mix design and QC programs.
