Concrete Technology Basics

Join us for an informative webinar on Concrete Technology Basics. This webinar will cover a wide range of topics and subtopics related to concrete technology. Here's an overview of what will be discussed:

Raw Materials in Concrete:

• Cement: Explore the physical and chemical properties of cement, the different types available, and their implications on performance.
• Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM): Learn about fly ash, GGBS, CSF, and microfine GGBS, their properties, and their impact on the fresh and hardened properties of concrete.
• Aggregates: Understand the physical and chemical properties of aggregates and how they influence the characteristics of fresh and hardened concrete.
• Admixtures: Discover different types of admixtures used in concrete, methods for assessment, and compatibility checks.

Water Requirements in Concrete:

Learn about the water requirements for concrete as specified in IS 456, including testing frequency and compliance.

Concrete Overview:

Get a comprehensive understanding of concrete, its basics, properties, different grades, and compliance requirements.

Design Mix Methods:

• Dive into trial mix proportioning methods, focusing on IS 10262:2019. Additionally, get an introduction to other mixed design methods beyond BIS guidelines.
• Practice trial mix calculations and explore all-in aggregate grading through exercises.

Basic Tests on Concrete:

• Assess the fresh properties of concrete using IS 1199-2018 standards. Learn how to interpret test results and observations.
• Explore the hardened properties of concrete through destructive and non-destructive tests according to IS 516:2018-2021. Understand test conditions, inferences, and compliance requirements.
