Abstract:
In this paper, it is considered the differences in the quality assessment of high strength concrete. Compared with normal concrete, the HSC needs a more strict control of production, and the criteria to establish the batches to control and the estimation of strength require to take into account the statistic distribution of its resistance. The tests have also especial aspects, as well the consistency and the compression strength.
