Advanced concrete
technologies for tunnel lining recently developed and available in Japan were
introduced at China Tunnel Summit 2008, March 20-21, 2008, in Shanghai, the P. R. China. This
seminar was organized mainly for tunnel engineers to deliver the latest
information of tunnel construction and operation. The presentation title
given by JSCE concrete committee was “Improving Concrete Structure to Prolong
Concrete Durability in Tunnels.” |

RESEARCH COMMITTEE
Subcommittee
on Design, Material Characterization, and Performance Evaluation of Concrete
with Admixtures
(Subcommittee
333)
Recently, the increased awareness
of low environmental impacts and efficient resource utilization has resulted in
a high necessity for applicability of admixture material. For this reason, the
333 committee was established and started its activities since September 2004,
aiming to clarify the relationship among various mineral/chemical admixtures,
concrete quality and its performance.
