10 ConcreCem and mix design of High Strength Concrete
In case of high strength concrete a lot of cement is used which contributes to easily cracking of the concrete due to the high temperature which will occur in the mix.
Adding ConcreCem will reduce this cracking.
In the paragraphs below mix designs with ConcreCem of a C120, C150 and C180 are given.
