High-Performance Concrete: Performance and Quality of Concrete Structures
Also Known As:
The ACI SP-186:1999 standard is a compilation of over 45 research papers presented at the Second CANMET/ACI International Conference. The conference focused on emerging high-performance concrete technologies in Brazil and other South American countries. The papers accepted for publication cover a wide range of topics related to high-performance concrete, including sulfate attack, fly ash utilization, shrinkage compensation, mechanical behavior of repaired beams, fiber-reinforced concrete, shotcrete, mix proportioning, roller-compacted concrete, and more.
The standard provides valuable insights into the design, properties, and performance of high-performance concrete in various applications. It covers topics such as the influence of different admixtures, aggregates, and curing conditions on the mechanical and durability properties of concrete. The research papers delve into the microstructure of ancient lightweight concrete, the use of locally available aggregates for high-strength applications, the influence of various factors on the permeability of high-performance concrete, and the behavior of high-strength concrete columns with steel fibers, among others.
