  • METHOD OF DESIGNING A CONCRETE COMPOSITIONS HAVING DESIRED SLUMP WITH MINIMAL WATER AND PLASTICIZER
    Publication number: 20110004332
    Abstract: Methods of preparing design-optimized concrete compositions having target compressive strengths and slumps with a minimal amount of water are disclosed. In particular, the optimized concrete compositions are produced by analyzing pre-existing mix designs from a manufacture and determining the optimum amount of water required in the mix (i.e., optimized water to cement ratio) to obtain a target slump, yet allowing for the end-produced concrete composition to have a target compressive strength.

  • SUPERIOR CONCRETE MIX DESIGN WITH WORKABILITY OPTIMIZED GRADATION AND FIXED PASTE VOLUME
    Publication number: 20110004333
    Abstract: Methods for design-optimization of concrete compositions having workability optimized gradation and fixed cement paste volume are disclosed. In particular, the methods allow for designing and manufacturing of concrete compositions having target compressive strengths and slumps and having a fixed volume of cement paste based on target compressive strengths and/or target slump amounts using improved methods that more efficiently utilize all the components from a performance standpoint.
