TL;DR: In this article, the influence of moisture states of natural and recycled aggregates on the properties of fresh and hardened concretes was investigated, and the results suggested that an AD aggregate that contains not more than 50% recycled aggregate is optimum for producing normal strength recycled aggregate concrete.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of size and shape of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) aggregate on the fresh and hardened properties, including abrasion resistance, of concrete were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this article, a mini-slump test has been developed for the evaluation of the influence of water-reducing admixtures on the workability of neat portland cement pastes.
Abstract: A miniature slump test has been developed for the evaluation of the influence of water-reducing admixtures on the workability of neat portland cement pastes. Resulting paste pat areas rather than heights are measured, and the results are expressed as the percentage of water reduction. Relative effects of various admixtures on a portland cement are illustrated, and influences of specific admixtures on different cements are also shown. Effects of different superwater-reducing admixtures and combinations of ordinary and superwater-reducing admixtures are compared. The mini-slump method has also been used for the evaluation of the loss of workability (slump loss) with time for various admixtures and admixture combinations. The simplicity of the method facilitates accurate and effective evaluation of water-reducing admixtures.

TL;DR: In this paper, a neural network was used to predict compressive strength and slump of high strength concrete (HSC) using the available test data of 187 different concrete mix-designs of HSC gathered from the literature.

TL;DR: In this article, the flow induced by a smaller cone test for cement pastes and grouts is studied and a modified relation allows the prediction of the plastic yield value from the measured spread.
