More
The Sulfate-resisting concrete is traditionally specified by cement type and concrete mix proportions in terms of maximum water-cement ratio and/or minimum cement content.
Testing and Specifying Chloride Resistance of Concrete
ABC-SAS010-11
31 Oct 2011
Bridges
More
A wide range of test methods has been used to measure the resistance of concrete to chloride penetration. Each method is purported to measure the property of concrete central to the chloride transport mechanism into concrete. They include water…
Optimising Precast Bridge Girders for Sustainability with the use of High Performance Concrete
ABC-WPD010-11
31 Oct 2011
Bridges
More
The standard Super-T bridge girders used in Australia were developed to provide optimum performance at a time when the maximum concrete grade covered by the bridge design code was 50 MPa. This paper examines the opportunities for improved…

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
