Various Practices to Avoid the Possibilities of Segregation Occurrence in Reinforced Concrete Elements and Treatment of Segregations

Session

Civil Engineering, Infrastructure and Environment

Description

The occurrence of segregations in the monolithic reinforced concrete elements is a very common case in the everyday practice of construction works. Through this paper we have made an effort to present our experiences related to this issue by addressing our attempt to eliminate the occurrence of segregations in concrete from two aspects: 1) by obtaining technical measures to reduce or eliminate the possibility of segregation occurrence and 2) by assuming proper geometry of the elements of structures. The measures we have taken have mainly been quite successful and have greatly influenced the performance of reinforced concrete elements. The paper also contains some methods applied for the treatment of segregations.

Keywords:

Segregation, monolith concrete, performance of concrete elements
