Internal Curing of Concrete: una fantastica bibliografia internazionale

Gli Internal Curing Concrete, sono prodotti di supporto alla stagionatura del calcestruzzo da non confondere con gli SRA, utilizzati per diminuire l’evaporazione dell’acqua e quindi contrastare i fenomeni di ritiro del calcestruzzo.

In Italia sono poco utilizzati, probabilmente per il costo, ma rappresentano una soluzione interessanti.

Ho trovato sul web un interessante bibliografia che voglio mettere a disposizione per i lettori di Ingenio.
