ACI 207.1R: Guide to Mass Concrete
Abstract: Mass concrete is defined in ACI 116R as “any volume of concrete with dimensions large enough to require that measures be taken to cope with generation of heat from hydration of the cement and attendant volume change ...
ACI 209.2R: Guide for Modeling and Calculating Shrinkage and Creep in Hardened Concrete
Abstract: This document was developed to address the issues related to the prediction of creep under compression and shrinkageinduced strains in hardened concrete. It may be assumed, however, that predictions apply to concrete under ...
ACI 363.2R: Guide to Quality Control and Assurance of High-Strength Concrete
Abstract: This guide discusses QC and testing practices of HSC. HSC usually is associated with structures that have been optimized for performance. Therefore, a high degree of confidence in concrete quality should be achieved through ...
ACI 544.5R: Report on the Physical Properties and Durability of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
Abstract: The report is divided into three sections:
1. The physical properties of FRC;
2. The areas where concrete durability is affected by the addition of fibers; and
3. A series of applications where FRC use resulted ...

ACI 364.5T: Importance of Modulus of Elasticity in Surface Repair Materials
Abstract: Summary
Surface repairs must be dimensionally and mechanically compatible with the existing concrete substrate to minimize cracking and ensure that the repair and existing structure act monolithically. ...

ACI SP-189: High-Performance Concrete Research to Practice
Abstract: PREFACE
The theme of the American Concrete Institute Spring Convention held in Chicago, Ill., March 14-19, 1999, was High-Performance Concrete (HPC). Thirty-nine technical sessions were held at ...

ACI 209.1R: Report on Factors Affecting Shrinkage and Creep of Hardened Concrete
Abstract: Factors affecting shrinkage and creep of hardened concrete are presented to enable those involved in the evaluation and formulation of concrete mixtures to determine the effects of these factors. Section 1.2 of Chapter 1 ...
ACI 207.4R: Cooling and Insulating Systems for Mass Concrete
Abstract: Scope: The need to control volume change induced primarily by temperature change in mass concrete often requires cooling and insulating systems. This report discusses three construction ...
