Research and Development Progress on Concrete Preparation with Seawater

Abstract:

This document outlined the development of concrete mixing water at first. And then it discussed some properties of concrete prepared with adding sea water and impacts of sea water on effectiveness of concrete. The article also tried to explain some reasons of these impacts. The author emphasized on analyzing the effect to the function of concrete by using seawater as mixing water and the reasons and separately elaborated on the different effects to plain concretes and reinforced concretes. At last, the article predicted the development trend of using seawater as concrete mixing water.
