Formwork Pressure of Concretes with high Workability

In the last 15 years the application of high-workability concretes has increased significantly. Such concretes have a spread value larger than 55 cm according to DIN EN 12350-5 (2000) and are classified into the consistency classes F5, F6 (vibrated concretes) and Self-Compacting Concretes (SCC) according to DIN EN 206-1 (2001). Using SCC a mechanical compaction is not necessary anymore.
