PUMPED CONCRETE

A SERIES OF ARTICLES ARE PRESENTED COVERING EQUIPMENT FOR PUMPING CONCRETE, WORKABILITY AND FLOW BEHAVIOR, ADMIXTURES, DESIGNING A PUMPABLE CONCRETE MIX, AND ECONOMICS OF PUMPING. IN DESIGNING CONCRETE FOR PUMPING, THE DESIGNER HAS TO CONSIDER FIRST THE PROPERTIES THAT ARE DESIRED OF THE CONCRETE IN ITS SET AND HARDENED STATE, AND THEN PROVIDE THE ADDITIONAL REQUISITES THAT PERMIT THE MIX TO BE PUMPED. COMMENTS ARE MADE ON THE LIMITATIONS OF STANDARD WORKABILITY TESTS IN DETERMINING THE SUITABILITY OF A PARTICULAR MIX FOR PLACEMENT BY PUMPING. /AUTHOR/
