Abstract

This paper comprises a brief review of the role of air-entraining admixtures on the purposeful entrainment of air in concrete and mortars; the optimum air content and factors which influence its development; tests made to determine the presence of entrained air in plastic concrete; and the significance of the standard laboratory tests made to evaluate air-entraining admixtures.
