Maturity testing of lightweight self-compacting and vibrated concretes [PDF]
Abstract A series of laboratory tests were carried out to investigate the effect of temperature on the early-age strength development of lightweight self-compacting and vibrated concrete mixtures. These had been developed at Queen’s University Belfast as part of a Technology Strategy Board funded project aimed at developing lightweight and low energy
