5 Recommended Guide Lines for Concrete Mix Design IS 10262 – 1982 (F) Curing Compound; 1 Standard test method for water retention & daylight reflection test on concrete. ASTM-C-156809 2 The standard method of test for the effect of organic materials in fine aggregate on strength of mortar. ASTM-C. 87-69
For a large project, outsourcing concrete production to ready-mixed concrete suppliers means delegating the quality control and testing, material logistics and supply chain issues and mix design, to specialists who are already established for those tasks, trading off against introducing another contracted external supplier who needs to make a ...
It also flows much better than ordinary concrete, having the consistency of a milkshake. The first known use of CLSM was in 1964. [2] CLSM is typically a ready mix concrete rather than soil cement which is a low strength cement made using local soil, and is similar to a slurry.
The ECC material family is expanding. The development of an individual mix design of ECC requires special efforts by systematically engineering of the material at nano-, micro-, macro- and composite scales. ECC looks similar to ordinary Portland cement-based concrete, except that it can deform (or bend) under strain. [1]

With recent developments in mix design and 3D printing technology over the last decade, 3D concrete printing has grown exponentially since its emergence in the 1990s. Architectural and structural applications of 3D-printed concrete include the production of building blocks , building modules , street furniture , pedestrian bridges, and low-rise ...
ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete provides minimum requirements necessary to provide public health and safety for the design and construction of structural concrete buildings. [6] It is issued and maintained by the American Concrete Institute. [7] The latest edition of the code is ACI 318-19.
ASTM C1293: "Test Method for Concrete Aggregates by Determination of Length Change of Concrete Due to Alkali-Silica Reaction". It is a long-term confirmation test (1 or 2 years) at 38 °C in a water-saturated moist atmosphere (inside a thermostated oven) with concrete prisms containing the aggregates to be characterised mixed with a high-alkali ...
