ACI Publishes Two New Documents on Concrete

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) recently released ACI PRC 211.1-22, Guide to Selecting Proportions for Normal-Density and High Density Concrete. The previous version of this guide was published in 1991 and reapproved periodically without revisions. This updated guide covers some of the newer materials and addresses developing mixtures for permeability, shrinkage, modulus of elasticity and other performance properties. It discusses procedures for trial batches and adjustments and includes several numerical examples for mixture proportioning. Two appendices discuss laboratory testing and proportioning heavyweight concrete mixtures.
