From page 22...
... These guidelines can be of particular interest to bridge engineers and specifiers, concrete producers, testing laboratories, and manufacturers; will facilitate successful use of SCC; and will contribute to its acceptance. Adopting quality control measures for producing SCC leads to enhanced durability and longer life expectancy of bridge structures.
