Abstract
This invention relates to a latex-modified, pretensioned, and prestressed concrete structure having at least about a 50% reduction in bond transfer length as compared to a structure not modified by a latex. Such structure is composed of a cured concrete composition comprising a mixture of (1) portland cement, (2) mineral aggregate, and (3) a vinylidene chloride polymer latex, said latex being present in an amount sufficient to provide from about 5 to about 25 percent by weight of polymer solids.
