SP6-10

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Alexander Klein, David Pirtz, and Robert F. Adams

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

Reports tests made on materials and mixes to determine thermal properties and adiabatic temperature rise of mass concrete. The tests were made at different agaes in a program that was a paprt of the design studies for Oroville Dam.

SP6-01

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Raymond E. Davis

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

The first part of this paper covers mass concrete practices that have been employed in dams in the United States during the past 75 years. The second part describes in some detail the concrete construction operations during that period.

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

Abstract:

Includes selection of aggregate, cement, and pozzolan; admixturesl mix proportions; batching; mixing; placing; curing; and grouting and cooling of mass concrete as practiced by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.

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.

SP6-09

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Lewis H. Tuthill, Robert F. Adams, and Donald R. Mitchell

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

Reports the effect of various materials and various mix proportions on compressive strength at different ages, shrinkage, modulus of elasticity, and tensile splitting strength. Effect of curing conditions and the size of test cylinder are evaluated.
