Σύνοψη

This project deals with different types of admixtures, which are placed in concrete in order to improve its properties bearing in mind the purpose for which the concrete will be used in every particular case.
The first chapter is a more general one and deals with the properties of plain concrete, concrete, which does not contain any admixtures.
The second chapter deals with the changes in the properties of concrete when water-reducing admixtures are incorporated in concrete and especially the water-reduction and the increase in workability.
In the third chapter the admixtures that are examined are the air-entrainers.
The fourth chapter deals with the retarding admixtures and more extensively on their effect of the retardation of concrete.
The fifth chapter refers to the changes in concrete properties when an accelerating admixture is incorporated in a concrete mix.
The sixth chapter deals with the uses of each admixture in different situations.
Chapter 7 describes the methods incorporated in the performance of the experiments.
