ACI SP 96 : 1987

Deals with the recent developments and methodologies of concrete consolidation. Whether constructing a building, tunnel, bridge or pavement and no matter what concrete you are using: structural, lightweight, mass, superplasticized or roller compacted the importance of consolidation should not be neglected. Topics covered include: mechanical equipment for consolidation of superplasticized concrete mixes; consolidation of continuously reinforced concrete pavement; compaction effects on flexural behavior of fibre reinforced concrete; and properties of double-mixed lean concrete subjected to vibrating compaction. Offers valuable insight into latest research and developments in this critical aspect of concrete construction.
