Brittle Matrix Composites
Author: Dominik Logoń
Publisher: Elsevier Inc. Chapters
ISBN: 0128090308
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 17
Book Description
The paper presents the methods of controlling sedimentation of cement mix using D-cube flow, slump, cone immersion and electrical resistance tests. These methods make it possible to control the sedimentation of aggregates and fibers, the optimization of different admixtures and additives and the rheological properties of cement mixes. The electrical resistance test for cement composites was modified. The cube (150x 150x 150mm) was equipped with two electrodes to measure the resistance of the mix. For sedimentation measurement electrodes were placed in the upper and bottom part of the mix. Measured changes of the resistance at different depths of the mix give the information about the sedimentation of components. The main advantage of the D-cube (150x150x150 mm) flow, slump and cone immersion tests is the ability to do it without advanced measuring devices and the fact that one method is sufficient to compare the rheological properties of cement pastes, mortars and concretes.

Brittle Matrix Composites

Pages : 17
Book Description
The use of caleerous fly ash from brown coal combustion in Belchatow Power Plant in Poland as additive to concrete mix was studied. The strength and the resistance to chloride penetration into concrete was investigated at water to binder ratio from 0.45 to 0.60. Caleerous fly ash both in unprocessed form and grinded to specified specific surface was used for partial replacement of cement up to 30% of mass. To evaluate the concrete resistance to chloride ion penetration the standard method of determination of chloride migration coefficient from non-steady-state migration test according to NT Build 492 was used. Test results revealed a substantial improvement of the resistance to chloride penetration into concrete containing calcerous fly ash. The resistance was higher for increased replacement level and decreased water-to-cement ratio.

Binders for Durable and Sustainable Concrete
Author: Pierre-Claude Aïtcin
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0203940482
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
Linking theory to practice, this book provides a better fundamental understanding of Portland cement and hydraulic binders which is necessary to make better concrete. It has been clearly demonstrated that concrete durability is closely linked to its water/binder ratio and proper curing during the first week after casting. In this rigorously presented work, Pierre-Claude Aïtcin explains the complexity of the hydration reaction and how to make, use and cure durable and sustainable concrete. This book also details the problems with Portland cement composition at present and outlines the concept of an ideal hydraulic binder which is technically and ecologically efficient, as well as being long-lasting and robust. Binders for Durable and Sustainable Concrete is a practical and innovative reference text which will be particularly relevant to engineers and chemists working in the Portland cement, concrete and admixture industries. This book will also be of interest to academics and graduate-level students in Civil Engineering departments who specialize in Portland cement and concrete technology.
