Estimating, modelling, controlling and monitoring the flow of
concrete is a vital part of the construction process, as the
properties of concrete before it has set can have a significant
impact on performance. This book provides a detailed overview of
the rheological behaviour of concrete, including measurement
techniques, the impact of mix design, and casting. Part one begins
with two introductory chapters dealing with the rheology and
rheometry of complex fluids, followed by chapters that examine
specific measurement and testing techniques for concrete. The focus
of part two is the impact of mix design on the rheological
behaviour of concrete, looking at additives including
superplasticizers and viscosity agents. Finally, chapters in part
three cover topics related to casting, such as thixotropy and
formwork pressure. With its distinguished editor and expert team of
contributors, Understanding the rheology of concrete is an
essential reference for researchers, materials specifiers,
architects and designers in any section of the construction
industry that makes use of concrete, and will also benefit graduate
and undergraduate students of civil engineering, materials and
construction.
