Self-Consolidating Concrete for Precast Prestressed Applications
Also Known As:
ACI SP-247:2007 is a collection of papers that were presented at the ACI 2007 Fall convention in Puerto Rico. The focus of these papers is on self-consolidating concrete (SCC) for precast prestressed applications. The papers cover various aspects of SCC in prestressed applications, including mixture proportioning, mechanical properties, time-dependent deformations, flexural and shear behavior, bond behavior, prestress losses, and the structural behavior of full-scale precast prestressed elements made with SCC.
The table of contents provided in the description gives an overview of the topics covered in the papers. Each paper is identified with a specific number and includes the names of the authors. Some of the topics covered include the development of SCC for prestressed bridge beams, the applicability of standard equations for predicting mechanical properties of SCC, the effect of admixture combination on the top-bar effect of SCC mixtures, improving precast operations through the use of SCC, shear characteristics of SCC for precast prestressed concrete members, structural behavior and field-monitoring of SCC prestressed box beams for a demonstration bridge, prestress losses in beams cast with SCC, and the evaluation of bond properties in SCC prestressed beams.
