DURABILITY ASPECTS OF PRECAST PRESTRESSED CONCRETE. PART 2: CHLORIDE PERMEABILITY STUDY

A laboratory study was undertaken to investigate the good past performance of low water-cement ratio, heat-cured precast, prestressed concrete in highway bridges, parking garages, and other applications. The study included salt water bonding testing, "coulomb" tests, compressive strength tests, and absorption and volume of permeable void tests.
