Inspection Manual for Self-Consolidating Concrete in Precast Members

摘要

This manual discusses quality control and testing procedures for SCC used in precast elements. It is intended for use by field inspectors responsible for pre-qualifying mixtures and assuring concrete quality. The information presented is of a general nature and may not be appropriate for all projects. The manual is written on the assumption that the reader already has basic background knowledge of general concrete material properties and construction practices. Chapter 2 provides basic background information on SCC. Guidelines for SCC quality control and quality assurance are presented in Chapter 3. SCC is a specialized material and requires specialized knowledge to evaluate it.
