Abstract:
Q. A concrete supplier for one of my projects wants to provide lightweight aggregate concrete with 6% air content to meet the specified unit weight. I typically don’t allow air entrainment in floor slab mixtures to help minimize the risk of blistering from early finishing. What requirements or guidance on this topic is included in ACI committee documents or other resources?
