Description:
The concept of the 22nd Concrete Days (CD 2015) allowed a rich programme of expert lectures and posters but also enough time for professional discussions, informal business negotiations and friendly meetings.
The Czech Concrete Society CSSI as the organizing body of the conference has done its best to ensure a convenient stay for 22 times. There were more than 310 participants at the conference this time.
The selected papers include recent results of scientific and engineering decisions in area of researching of properties and manufacturing technologies of modern concretes; modelling and design of structure elements from concrete and realization of significant construction projects.

Description: Using of special concretes and composites is often closely connected with severe loading conditions of final elements. Design and development of mentioned materials must take account into knowledge of basic properties of all components, because they could be special by their binder system, used fillers or by other technological solutions.
Edition will be useful for experts and practical engineers in the field of using concrete and composite materials in the different areas of construction.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) refers to a 'highly flow-able,non-segregating concrete that can be spread into place, fill the formwork,and encapsulate the reinforcement without the aid of any mechanicalconsolidation. SCC is regarded as one of the most promising developments inconcrete technology due to significant advantages over Conventional Concrete(CC). In this study cracking caused by external loads in reinforced SCC andFRSCC slabs is examined experimentally and analytically. The mechanismsassociated with the flexural cracking due to the combined effects ofconstant sustained service loads and shrinkage are observed. One of theprimary objectives of this study is to develop analytical models thataccurately predict the hardened mechanical properties of SCC and FRSCC.Subsequently, these models have been successfully applied to simulatetime-dependent cracking of SCC and FRSCC one-way slabs.
