Abstract:
An attempt to assemble in exemplified form the known properties, factors, and relationships pertaining to concrete In the plastic state. Details of con- crete proportioning procedure are not included, and reference is made to the properties of hardened concrete only when its requirements directly affect or predetermine certain properties of the fresh concrete. The introduction includes a brief discussion of the concrete proportioning problem and a highly con- densed account of the more important historical de- velopments. The second section discusses the known properties of concrete mixes and related facts, and presents supporting data and information from the literature and from unpublished records.
