Standard EN SampleGuide to Durable Concrete
Also Known As:
The ACI 201.2R-16 standard provides a comprehensive overview of various types of concrete deterioration. The standard is structured into chapters that delve into the mechanisms behind these deterioration processes and offer recommended requirements for specific components of concrete.
The guide covers a wide range of topics, including quality considerations for concrete mixtures, construction procedures, and the impact of the exposure environment on concrete durability. These considerations are vital in ensuring the longevity and performance of concrete structures.
While the focus of the guide is on conventional concrete, it also discusses specialty concretes. However, it acknowledges that specialty concretes, such as roller-compacted or pervious concrete, may have unique durability-related issues that are not covered in-depth. For more detailed information on these special concretes, readers are advised to consult other ACI documents.
