[...] la résistance d'un béton [...] dépend essentiellement [...] de la compacité du mélange. Or, la compacité se définit par le rapport volume des pleins/volume apparent, d'où pour le technicien la nécessité de réaliser une ossature d'inertes avec le minimum de vides, c'est-à-dire un béton dit plein (qui, par définition, aura une porosité inférieure à 10%), le plus homogène possible. [...] Il faudra suffisamment de mortier pour remplir les vides des gros granulats [...]. 2, record 1, French, - coefficient%20de%20protection%20%2D%20vides
