Symposium on Concrete Construction in Aqueous Environment
Also Known As:
The ACI SP-8:1964 standard is a compilation of 10 research papers that address different aspects of concrete construction in aquatic environments. The standard covers various topics such as the construction of concrete waterfront structures, concrete waterholding structures, and the use of concrete in aqueous environments.
Some of the specific topics addressed in the standard include the use of tremie concrete, which is a method of placing concrete underwater or in water-filled excavations. The standard also covers the construction of prestressed tanks, concrete piles, and the importance of the design and maintenance of joints and cracks in concrete structures.
In addition, the standard explores the use of concrete pontoons and investigates the effects of seawater on concrete structures. Lastly, the standard includes a paper specifically dedicated to the design considerations for concrete piers.
