Document: 

SP6-13

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

David Pirtz and Roy W. Carlson

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

Temperature, stress, and moisture conditions such as might occur in a concrete dam were applied to 30 x 30 in. concrete cylinders containing several strain meters and stress meters. The stress meters gave readings close to true compressive stress without corrections.

Symposium Papers

Volume:

Abstract:

Where the appearance of usefulnes of a concrete structure has been impaired by weathering or disintegration, the cause usually can be traced to failure to follow the rules of good concrete practice. Ten cases, from observations of hundreds of structures, illustrate this point.

Author(s):

Byram W. Steele

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

Abstract:

Vertical or near vertical cracking parallel to the axis of concrete dams is examined considering concrete temperature control, minimum cement content, restraint, seasonal temperature, construction procedure, and latitude and altitude of the construction site.
