Abstract
The purpose of this project is the development of criteria for the fabrication of jet exhaust resistant concretes. Concretes under study are evaluated by exposure to hot gases from a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber delivers these gases at velocities and temperatures approaching field conditions.
