  4. Technical Performances of Concrete ——Introduction 5.1 • Cement concrete is a man-made stone material, which is compound that consists of cement, aggregates and water in proper proportion. • Cement concrete is widely used in civil engineering, its characteristics are: ——richness in resources and simple for construction; ——concrete and reinforcement have same linear expansion coefficient and fine bond strength between them, which is much beneficial to make reinforcement concrete and prestressed concrete; ——through changing the composition proportion, different feature concretes can be obtained to meet different requirements; ——good mechanical behaviors and better durability.

  5. Technical Performances of Concrete ——Construction workability 5.1 • Definition: ——workability is a property which means fresh cement concrete mixture is easy to construction operation (including mixing, transportation, concreting, vibrating and surface treatment) , uniformity on quality and dense in structure. • Workability including: ——flowability (流动性): is easy to fill formwork in uniformity and compactness; ——tamping feasibility (捣实性): is likely to remove all air in concrete mixture to be dense.

  6. Technical Performances of Concrete ——Construction workability 5.1 ——cohesiveness (黏聚性): without separation and disintegration to fresh concrete depending on some cohesion; ——water-retaining (保水性): to have good water retention abilities without bleeding problem.

  13. Technical Performances of Concrete ——Strength Characteristics 5.1 • Influencing factors on concrete strength (1) concrete composition: ——cement strength: the higher cement strength, the higher concrete strength; ——water cement ratio (W/C): concrete strength has close relationship to W/C according to a lot experience, which is the lower W/C, the higher concrete strength is.

  14. Technical Performances of Concrete ——Strength Characteristics 5.1 ——Characteristics of aggregate: ① rough surface and plentiful edges preferred; ② closely to cubic or round shape, rather than elongated or flat; ③ larger of maximum size is beneficial to compressive strength but unbeneficial to flexural strength, and when size of coarse aggregate is too larger, it is unfavorable to workability. Normally, nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate for concrete is no more than 31.5mm; ④ concrete mixture in continuous gradation has better workability and more dense; Comparatively speaking, gap gradation has less cement consumption compare with continuous concrete, but it is poor in workability; ⑤ Generally, sand with less specific surface area and less void ratio is preferred which has the ideal gradation.
