The Effect of Concrete Mix Proportion to the Air Bubble Spacing Coefficients of Hardened Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

A large number of studies have shown that the air content of fresh concrete and the air bubble spacing coefficients of hardened concrete can be used to characterize the frost resistance of concrete. The performance of air-entraining agent is an important influence factor of these two indexes, and the effect of concrete mix proportion cannot be ignored. In this paper, the effect of concrete mix proportion to the air bubble spacing coefficients of hardened concrete has been studied through a series of tests.
