- Abstract
- Mixing concrete is not yet a fully understood issue, with many parameters having an influence on the resulting fresh and hardened concrete properties. Even for the same composition, a somewhat different microstructure can be obtained by changing the mixing procedure and the mixer type. A mixing procedure can differ in mixing time, mixing speed, air pressure in the mixing pan, addition time of the superplasticizer, temperature, etc. The concrete industry shows a great interest in controlling these influences in order to produce a concrete of which the mechanical, rheological and durability properties are well known. In this overview, different concrete mixers, mixing times, mixing speeds, different addition times of the superplasticizer and a different air pressure in the mixing pan will be examined. A review of existing literature is presented, as well as some new experimental results.
