Title: DURABLE CONCRETE. COMPILATION 24. RESEARCH INNOVATIONS FOR DURABLE CONCRETE
Abstract: The article focusess on how the parallel developments in practice and research can be effectively integrated for improved quality management of concrete in production and for improved performance quality of field concrete. Concrete manufacturing technology is discussed, and the need is indicated for industrial process monitoring. The requirements for concrete durability research are discussed. Comments are made on ASTM specifications, with particular reference to ASTM C 33, Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates, ASTM specification C 618-91, and the test method ASTM C 311-90. It is noted that the nature of concrete during production and field performance must be the primary target for scientific and applied studies, and laboratory findings must be used with due regard to rational model laws.
