New STAR-in-a-Nutshell 266-MRP

With the aim of collecting the state-of-the-art knowledge on the measurement of rheological properties of complex materials such as concrete, the RILEM Technical Committee 266-MRP Measuring Rheological Properties of Cement-based Materials was formed in 2015. The State-of-the-Art report of TC 266-MRP was published in 2023 and edited by Mohammed Sonebi, and Dimitri Feys.

STAR 266-MRP is a document created to help the reader in understanding the applicable concepts of rheology, in describing the availability of different tools for homogeneous and heterogeneous materials characterization, in discussing measurement procedures and challenges, as well as providing equations and models to derive rheological values from other tests.
