Admixtures for Concrete - Improvement of Properties: Proceedings of the International RILEM Symposium (RILEM Proceedings 5)

Chemical admixtures are used to modify the properties and behaviour of fresh and hardened concrete. They enable more economic construction and the achievement of special properties such as high strength or durability. This book presents new research information from an International RILEM Symposium on six main topics: workability, setting, strength, durability, other properties and technology.
