2021-3-23 Concrete admixtures refer to the components of concrete that are added immediately before or during the mixing process, except for Portland cement, water and aggregates. Concrete admixtures can improve concrete quality, manageability, accelerate or delay setting time and other properties, and can achieve specific effects by changing these properties.

2018-11-8 Concrete mix design of grade C30/37 is employed in this study referred as control specimen. The total samples were divided into four different concrete mixtures i.e. control specimen (CO), 5 kg/m 3 of OPF (O5), 10 kg/m 3 of OPF (O10) and 15 kg/m 3 of OPF (O15). Three samples of each mix design were tested under slump test.
