TY - THES A1 - Schmidt, Wolfram T1 - Design concepts for the robustness improvement of self-compacting concrete - Effects of admixtures and mixture components on the rheology and early hydration at varying temperatures N2 - In Europe a multi-national research project was initiated entitled “Rational Production and Improved Working Environment through Using Self-Compacting Concrete”, followed by another project entitled “Testing SCC”, which helped spreading the benefits of SCC to a wide range of appliers. This project was also the basis of a widely accepted European guideline on Self compacted concrete published by the European industry association bibm, CEMBUREAU, EFCA, EFNARC, ERMCO, which again builds the basis of the European standards for the testing of SCC (EN 12350, Parts 8 to 12) as well as for the actual modernisation of the European concrete standard EN 206-1.
