| Summary: | This study focused on the behavior of concrete when EM1 was added, to achieve the objective of this study a practical work was done on many concrete mixes. EM1 was added as weight percentage from cement weight (0%, 3%, 6.5%, 10%). The mixes was casted as cubic and cylinders samples and tested after 7, 14 and 28 days. Water cement ratio, compression strength, tensile strength, plastic index and wet density of hardened concrete were computed. The results shows that EM1 increases the workability of concrete compare with reference mixes so EM1 can used to increase the plastic of concrete and increase the compression and tensile and concrete density. |
