About this book
ICOLD Bulletin 165, Selection of Materials for Concrete in Dams, is dedicated to the choice of hydraulic binders and mineral additions as well as adjuvants and waste water. This applies to both conventional concrete (CVC) and roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams. The Bulletin is a Practical Guide for the choice of materials for concrete dams, and provides project actors with the decision-making framework to make the right choices of materials in places where resources may be limited.
Le Bulletin 165 de la CIGB, Choix des Matériaux Pour les Bétons de Barrage, comprend des chapitres dédiés au choix des liants hydrauliques et des additions minérales ainsi qu'aux adjuvants et à l'eau de gâchage. Cela concerne aussi bien les bétons conventionnels (CVC) que les bétons compactés au rouleau (RCC). Le Bulletin constitue un Guide Pratique pour le choix des matériaux pour les bétons des barrages. L'apport majeur est de procurer aux acteurs des projets l'ossature décisionnelle pour faire les bons choix de matériaux dans des lieux où les ressources peuvent être limitées.
