Abstract:
This article is based largely on the report by ACI Committee 350, Concrete Sanitary Engineering Structures. It describes the desirable properties of concrete in general and the specific properties requiredof concrete for sanitary engineering structures. It deals primarily with the making of watertight, chemical resistant concrete, with special emphasis on sulfate resistance and how to attain it.
