Abstract AR
تحتم البيئة القاسية في منطقة الخليج العربي وجود إجراءات مناسبة في معيار التصميم لمعالجة أبرز المشاكل في تنفيذ المنشآت الخرسانية.
و قد تم تقسيم منطقة الجزيرة العربية إلى جزء حار و ناشف و جزء حار و رطب.
و هناك تقسيمات أخرى لكل جزء وفقا للمؤثرات السلبية في ديمومة الخرسانة.
و بناء على الأبحاث السابقة و الخبرة العملية في منطقة الخليج, وضعت اقتراحات ضرورية للتعامل مع الخرسانة.
و هذه الاقتراحات نوعية و كمية للتأكد من العوامل المتعددة في تصميم الخلطة الخرسانية.
تمثل هذه الورقة بداية لإعداد معيار تصميم لخرسانة عالية الديمومة في منطقة الخليج العربي.
Abstract EN
The severity of the Arabian Gulf environment demands certain provisions for a design code that would cater to local challenges in concreting.
With this view in mind, an apparent climatic divide was identified for the Arabian Peninsula viz.
Hot–Dry and Hot–Humid zones which were further classified into an order of exposures, detailing the potential dangers to concrete durability.
Moreover, suggestions are included based on both research and experience in the Gulf, to practice essential quantity and quality checks on concrete mix design parameters.
It is intended that this contribution would help formulate a draft design code respecting concrete durability in this part of the world.
