Concrete admixtures are liquids or powders which are added to the concrete during mixing in small quantities. The dosage is usually defined based on the cement content (expressed as a percentage by weight of cement or %bwc). Concrete admixtures have a significant impact on the fresh and/or hardened concrete properties.
The appearance of fair-faced concrete is crucial, and it can be enhanced by incorporating an appropriate amount of mineral admixture. Different mineral admixtures have varying effects on the appearance quality of fair-faced concrete. For instance, the addition of fly ash helps control color differences and bubble formation on the concrete …
