- Synopsis
- When construction a concrete structure, it is important to select a concrete with placing performance suitable for the relevant construction conditions and structural conditions. This paper summarizes the current practice and problems od concreting and discusses technical systems for evaluating the placing performance of fresh concrete states, which should be introduced to ensure the construction of concrete structures with high durability and reliability while preventing intial defects.
- Keywords:
- fresh concrete, workability, consistency, placing performance, intial defest, risk management
