Use of the Equivalent Mortar Phase to Assess Thixotropy of Fresh Scc – Prediction of Interfacial Bond Strength Between Successive Placement Lifts

Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is very sensitive to delays or stoppages between successive lifts during casting, especially given that vibration is prohibited with this highly flowable type of concrete. The investigation reported in this paper seeks to quantify the effect of mixture proportioning...
