Self-compacting concrete (also known as Super-workable concrete in Australia and Self-consolidating concrete in North America) is defined in EN 206 Part 9: Additional Rules for Selfcompacting Concrete (SCC) as concrete that is able to flow and…
Degradation of Pile Exposed to Acid Sulphate Soil
ABC-WPD006-11
31 Oct 2011
Bridges
More
Durability design of piles is usually carried out based on AS 2159 and AS 3600. It is widely known that the durability of concrete in acid sulphate environments is significantly influenced by the type of binder
