The workability is considered an important factor when concrete mixtures are designed; especially in some applications where members are heavily reinforced.
Considering the workability and need to minimize the bleeding of concrete in the primary containment-vessel of a nuclear reactor with large diameter reinforcing bars, a value of 150 ± 15 mm was selected for the target initial slump of the fresh concrete.
Nowadays polymer modification is effectively applied, and additives, which can provide better compaction and less expense by improving workability features are considered.
Also the workability of the rendering mortars, considering the roughness of the substrate, needs to be optimized to ensure a long-lasting life of the rendering.
In particular, it defines a methodology to design AMS able to adapt to the aging workers' needs considering their reduced workability, due to both physical and cognitive functional decrease, with the final aim to improve the human-machine interaction and the workers' wellbeing.
In considering its interactional workability, the question of whether PST confers an interactional advantage over existing therapies in accomplishing congruence in encounters between health professionals and patients, and hence more efficient disposal of work, is a complex one, because of the lack of observational data and the question of whether uptake of treatment is a good proxy measure.
In the performance tests, two types of splices were used as specimens: the existing type presently applied to nuclear power plants and a type that was improved by considering the modularization and workability using prefab SC members.
The optimal mixtures of AAFS concrete were set as slag content of 20 30%, AL/B ratio of 0.4, 10 M of SH, and SS/SH ratio of 1.5 2.5 considering the performance criteria of workability, setting time and compressive strength.
A RIV considering elastic modulus of fibers is employed to calculate the workability parameter of fresh HyFRCC, and the analysis indicates that the slump cone, V funnel, J-Ring and L-Box test results can all be predicted by this workability model.
Test results were analysed by considering the KW content and it was concluded that use of KW worsened the workability and decreased unit weight irrespective of KW content.
Insofar as the skill-set workability of mental health care was implicitly considered at all, its skill-set workability was implicitly rated low by GPs.
