THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE MANUFACTURED WITH SOME COARSE AGGREGATES OF THE SYDNEY AREA

Data are presented for strength, elastic deformation, creep, shrinkage and cracking-tendency of concretes made with some aggregates locally available in the Sydney area. It is demonstrated that whereas strength of the concretes are similar, the other properties may differ markedly. (A) /TRRL/
