... normal concrete and of dry laterized concrete mix. The water/cement ratio recommended for structural laterized concrete mixes of 1:1:2 and 1:1½:3 by weight is 0.65. This water/cement ratio would yield compressive strength of about 23.59 MPa (3425 psi) for 1:1:2 and 21.45 MPa (3110 psi) for 1:1½:3...

...WH Huang A method for viscosity measurement of cement grouts is discussed in this paper and the results are presented in the form of formulas and curves. The cement used in the tests was Type II portland cement. It was found that the cement grouts with water/cement ratios of 0.42 to 0.44 have fluid...

... disregarded. Experiments have been devised in which movements due to thermal effects and drying shrinkage can be analyzed separately. Thus early drying shrinkage values can be determined without thermal shrinkage interference. K E Y W O R D S : mortars (material), concretes, drying shrinkage, water cement...
