Abstract

For many years concrete and concrete aggregates have been the subjects of numerous researches covering a wide variety of topics—researches whose objectives have been to provide the information needed to make concrete a material of ever greater and ever more certain usefulness. It will be neither feasible nor desirable to attempt to consider all of the needed research in this field since a mere listing (1, 2) of the titles of such projects being undertaken in the various laboratories of this country and abroad would cover many pages. However, a useful purpose might be served by mentioning some of the more important problems, if only in sufficient detail to indicate their nature and their application.
