| Abstract |
| As part of the Sustainable Building and Concrete Seminar during the 2008 Batimat Tradeshow in Abu Dhabi, UAE, Cooney presented the results of the second phase of tests on concrete samples containing various amounts of FA. Samples were obtained from companies in the UAE. Cooney described the mix designs and tested their mechanical properties. This included slump, heat of hydration, and compressive strength. Furthermore, Cooney provided insights into the per capita cement consumption, forecasted growth in cement demand, and GHG and water saving benefits of using SCM concretes. |
