Abstract:

This manual was undertaken to record for all persons wishing to do concrete petrography the petrographic procedures that have been found useful at the Virginia Transportation Research Council. The manual is made up of an introduction and chapters on equipment, general initial procedures, cracks, preparation of specimens, voids (including determination of the air void system), percentage analysis of solid components, examination with the stereomicroscope, water/cement ratio, alkali-aggregate reactions, particulate materials, and examination with petrographic and polarizing/epifluorescence microscopes. An extensive reading list, glossary, and other appendices are also supplied.
