The Laws of Proportioning Concrete

Fuller, William B., Thompson, Sanford E.·1907·Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers

Abstract

Experiments made by one of the authors at Little Falls, N. J., in 1901, upon the density and transverse strength of concrete beams mixed in various proportions, by weight, ranging in proportions from 1 : 0 to 1 : 6 : 10, indicated that the strength of concrete varies with the percentage of cement contained in a unit volume of the set concrete, and also with the density of the specimen. With the same percentage of cement in a given volume of concrete, the densest mixture, irrespective of the relative proportions of the sand and stone, was in general the strongest.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
