Fresh concrete is well known to lose its workability with time. This phenomenon is called Slump loss, particularly high water reduced concrete has remarkable extent. To find a new method of solving the slump loss problem, a new superplasticizer (Mighty 2000) was developed. This new superplasticizer enables the workability of fresh concrete to be optionally controlled for a required working time. This report describes the technology and the method of slump control by the newly developed superplasticizer. Some properties of concrete with the new superplasticizer are also reported.(A) For part II see IRRD 833380. (TRRL)Read More
