Learning Objectives
• Recall new admixtures that allow production of concrete with reduced powder contents while maintaining strength and workability.
• Describe how existing admixture technology can be used in a different way to enhance to sustainability of a concrete mixture.
• Explain how different admixtures can improve the consistency and reduce the variability of concrete performance compared to ordinary Portland cement concrete.
• Describe how combining admixtures can further reduce the carbon dioxide emissions of concrete mixtures.
