Abstract

The first edition of this compilation published in 1956 did not have a chapter on “Chemical Admixtures” since at that time there was no ASTM standard covering chemical admixtures. The ASTM Specification for Chemical Admixtures for Concrete (C 494) was issued in 1962. Hence, in the second edition, issued in 1966, there was a chapter prepared by Dr. Bruce Foster. The chapter in ASTM STP 169B [1], published in 1978, was an updating of Dr. Foster's paper prepared by me.
