SP6-01

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Raymond E. Davis

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

The first part of this paper covers mass concrete practices that have been employed in dams in the United States during the past 75 years. The second part describes in some detail the concrete construction operations during that period.

SP6-13

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

David Pirtz and Roy W. Carlson

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

Temperature, stress, and moisture conditions such as might occur in a concrete dam were applied to 30 x 30 in. concrete cylinders containing several strain meters and stress meters. The stress meters gave readings close to true compressive stress without corrections.

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Milos Polivka, David Pirtz, and Robert F. Adams

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

A study of the creep characteristics of mass concrete carried out at the University of California to determine stress from strain measurements and to determine the sustained modulus of elasticity for the design of mass concrete structures.

Document: 

SP6-11

Date: 

January 1, 1963

Author(s):

Elmo C. Higginson, George B. Wallace, and Elwood L. Ore

Publication:

Symposium Papers

Volume:

6

Abstract:

Results of an extensive series of tests to determine the influence of the maximum aggregate size on compressive strength are reported. A wide range of cement content and aggregate sizes were used in the large test specimens, used to minimize the effect of speciment size.
