Title:
Effective Use of Chemical Admixtures
Session ID:
TU122
Description:
Chemical admixtures are an essential component of concrete mixtures and can provide a wide range of benefits in both fresh and hardened concrete. Designed for the advanced-level and experienced professional, this seminar will provide in-depth information on chemical admixtures, including current technologies such as workability-retaining admixtures and durability enhancing admixtures, and how they can be used to effectively enhance concrete construction and achieve operational efficiencies. Incompatibility and troubleshooting of potential issues associated with use of chemical admixtures will be discussed and projects highlighting successful use of admixtures will be presented.
1. Explore advanced knowledge of current admixture technologies & how they function
2. Determine how admixtures can be used to improve concrete construction
3. Identify and troubleshoot potential issues & undesired effects in concrete
4. Explain how operational efficiencies can be achieved through use of chemical admixtures
