THE USE OF THE FOAM INDEX METHOD IN CEMENT GROUTS FOR TESTING THE COMPATIBILITY OF CEMENT – SUPERPLASTICIZER – AERATING ADMIXTURE SYSTEM
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
concerning the impact selection of materials on the obtained results were broached. Tests of the foam index conducted inhouse were described and results were analyzed. An assessment was made on the basis of the results and the usefulness of the method in terms of testing the compatibility of cement – superplasticizer – aerating admixture system was determined.
