This edition has introduced new insights and research from the task group and our academic partners on subjects such as: 🛑 Options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 🛑 Strengthening recommendations regarding acceptance criteria for testing 🛑 Interesting new findings from numerical modelling The Guide continues to be an essential reference for everyone working with Tremies on deep foundation works. It provides definitive values and acceptance criteria for the workability of concrete when carrying out its recommended site tests. Its use should support #contractors, #clients and #consultants to avoid quality issues that can result from the workability of the concrete varying from the correct specification.
