Description
Abstract Several tests on white mortar, micro-concrete, concrete and self-compacting concrete, considering different additions and admixtures, were conducted to characterize white cement and determine the corresponding Feret coefficients. It was concluded that: (1) it is possible to make different mixtures of white self-compacting concrete (WSCC) with the materials adopted; (2) the method suggested by the JSCE is the one that better adapts to the studied WSCC mixtures; (3) the obtained values for the Feret coefficients can help the concrete designer predicting the compressive strength of the WSCC; (4) the Feret coefficients for WSCC are different from those for regular, white or gray, concrete.1359-5997 ? 2005 RILEM.
