Investigation of Proprietary Admixtures. Report 2. 1977-1978 Tests.

Abstract

Three high-range water-reducing admixtures for concrete were tested to determine compliance with specification CRD-C 87-78 (Class A or D). One admixture met the requirements when used at a dosage to give 18 percent water reduction; the second met the requirements when used at a 12 percent water reduction, but failed to do so when used to achieve a 17 percent reduction; the third failed to do so when used to achieve a 20 percent water reduction.
