This book was released on 1998 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluated the effects of temperature on the strength and permeability of concretes containing pozzolans (fly ash and silica fume) and slag. Two test programs were conducted. In the first, one control and five experimental mixtures containing silica fume, fly ash, or slag were evaluated. In the second, one control and three experimental mixtures containing fly ash or slag at a higher water-cementitious material ratio (W/CM) than used in the first program were evaluated. Concretes cured at higher temperatures had higher strengths up to 28 days but lower strengths at 1 year. Permeability decreased with time. Increasing early curing temperatures enabled the achievement of lower long-term permeability for 6 months and beyond at 28 days. Concretes containing a pozzolan or slag had a lower long-term permeability than the control. Adding a pozzolan was more effective in reducing permeability than reducing the W/CM. At cold temperatures, if the specified properties are not achieved, the contractor should change the mix design and/or provide insulating blankets and/or external heat to ensure the desired product.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increased use of concrete in high temperature environments, it is essential for engineers to have a knowledge of the properties and mathematical modelling of concrete in such extreme conditions. Bringing together, for the first time, vast amounts of data previously scattered throughout numerous papers and periodicals, this book provides, in two parts, a comprehensive and systematic review of both the properties and the mathematical modelling of concrete at high temperatures. Part I provides a comprehensive description of the material properties of concrete at high temperatures. Assuming only a basic knowledge of mathematics, the information is presented at an elementary level suitable for graduates of civil engineering or materials science. Part II describes the response of concrete to high temperatures in precise terms based on mathematical modelling of physical processes. Suitable for advanced graduate students, researchers and specialists, it presents detailed mathematical models of phenomena such as heat transfer, moisture diffusion, creep, volume changes, cracking and fracture. Concrete at High Temperatures will prove a valuable reference source to university researchers and graduate students in civil engineering and materials science, engineers in research laboratories, and practising engineers concerned with fire resistance, concrete structures for nuclear reactors and chemical technology vessels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durability and service life design of concrete constructions have considerable socio-economic and environmental consequences, in which the permeability of concrete to aggressive intruders plays a vital role. Concrete Permeability and Durability Performance provides deep insight into the permeability of concrete, moving from theory to practice, and presents over 20 real cases, such as Tokyo’s Museum of Western Art, Port of Miami Tunnel and Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao sea-link, including field tests in the Antarctic and Atacama Desert. It stresses the importance of site testing for a realistic durability assessment and details the "Torrent Method" for non-destructive measurement of air-permeability. It also delivers answers for some vexing questions: Should the coefficient of permeability be expressed in m2 or m/s? How to get a "mean" pore radius of concrete from gas-permeability tests? Why should permeability preferably be measured on site? How can service life of reinforced concrete structures be predicted by site testing of gas-permeability and cover thickness? Practitioners will find stimulating examples on how to predict the coming service life of new structures and the remaining life of existing structures, based on site testing of air-permeability and cover thickness. Researchers will value theoretical principles, testing methods, as well as how test results reflect the influence of concrete mix composition and processing.

Download or read book Effect of Elevated Curing Temperature on the Chloride Permeability of High-Strength Lightweight Concrete written by OE. Gjørv and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to high cement contents and reduced heat capacity, high-strength lightweight concrete is often exposed to elevated curing temperatures. In the production of lightweight concrete the aggregate is often wetted before use, but sometimes dry aggregate is also applied. In order to find out whether elevated curing temperatures in combination with varying moisture conditions of the aggregate would affect the concrete permeability, an experimental investigation was carried out. The results showed that maximum curing temperatures of up to 80°C did not adversely affect the compressive strength when dry aggregate was used, while a temperature above 50°C reduced the compressive strength when wet aggregate was employed. Temperatures above 65°C increased the permeability in both cases of aggregate moisture condition. At 20°C the compressive strength was higher for the wet aggregate concrete (103.8 MPa) compared to that of the dry aggregate concrete (95.3 MPa), but the permeability was also higher for the wet aggregate concrete (150%). When all the moisture was removed at 105°C, the wet aggregate concrete absorbed approximately 15% more water by capillary absorption than the dry aggregate concrete. Backscattered electron images showed a very dense transition zone between cement paste and aggregate both for the dry and the wet aggregate concrete.

Download or read book Effect of Temperature Rise and Fall on the Strength and Permeability of Concrete Made With and Without Fly Ash written by PL. Owens and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of temperature rise and fall on concrete at early ages is rarely measured. Concrete cured at elevated temperature has reduced strength at later ages. The changes that occur in the hydration products have been measured in terms of the amount of calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] present. Since permeability is, to some degree, a function of the water/cement ratio and strength, the measurement of permeability was necessary. Concrete is more permeable after it has undergone a temperature cycle similar to that found in practice. The use of Class F fly ash can effectively reduce the permeability of heat-affected concrete.
