Durability Of Concrete

The life of the concrete is strongly influenced by durability parameters. The permeability is one of the main characteristics influencing the durability of concrete. The concrete is more permeable due to the ingress of water, oxygen, chloride, sulphate, and other potential deleterious substances. The durability of concrete is mainly affected by pore structure system of concrete and addingthe supplementary cementitious materials (SCM), such as fly ash, slag cement, and silica fume can be decrease permeability. Crystalline technology enhances the strength of concrete by filling the poresand micro-cracks with non-dissolvable substances. To study the efficiency of crystalline formation in concrete in terms of more permeable should be guaranteed through a specific technique.The effectiveness of crystalline waterproofing system with partial replacement cement by GGBS is studiedin terms of strength and durability. The performance of the two different types of crystalline waterproofing integral admixtures has been studied for compressive strength, Split tensile strength, workability, water permeability, Rapid chloride permeability test and porosity in this paper.The early strength increased in GGBS with crystalline admixture concretes compare to the control concrete. No significant strength reduction is observed in GGBS concretes with crystalline admixture when replaced with 20% and 40% of cement than control concrete.

ASTM C1202 tests were conducted at various ages with the corresponding surface resistivity test, and the results were compared. Samples tested included field- and laboratory-prepared samples. The laboratory test matrix tested several mixtures common to Louisiana at a wide range of ratios of water to cementitious materials (w/cm) to evaluate the range of the surface resistivity meter. The surface resistivity measurements correlated well with rapid chloride permeability measurements across a wide range of permeability values and sample testing ages. Suitable correlations were found between both the 14-day and the 28-day surface resistivity values and the 56-day rapid chloride permeability values. The variability of the surface resistivity test results is usually less than the variability of the rapid chloride permeability test results. The surface resistivity meter was also able to identify great differences in w/cm ratios for the same mixtures. The surface resistivity meter was determined to be user friendly. The preliminary cost–benefit analysis showed that implementation of the device would save the department about $101,000 in personnel costs in the first year. It is estimated that contractors would save about $1.5 million in quality control costs. The cost–benefit ratio for this project is estimated to be about 15. A Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development test requirements procedure, TR 233, has been developed and implementation of the surface resistivity device has begun.

The utilisation of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is widespread in the concrete industry because of the performance benefits and economic. Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash (FA) have been used as the SCMs in concrete for reducing the weight of cement and improving durability properties. In this study, GGBFS at different cement replacement ratios of 0%, 20%, 40% and 60% by weight were used in fine-grained concrete. The ternary binders containing GGBFS and FA at cement replacement ratio of 60% by weight have also evaluated. Flexural and compressive strength test, rapid chloride permeability test and under-water abrasion test were performed. Experimental results show that the increase in concrete strength with GGBFS contents from 20% to 40% but at a higher period of maturity (56 days and more). The chloride permeability the under-water abrasion reduced with the increasing cement replacement by GGBFS or a combination of GGBFS and FA

Early Strength

High early strength (HES) concrete patching materials are increasingly used to repair damaged pavements. The use of HES concrete enables the repaired pavement to be opened to traffic shortly after the repair has been installed; for example, opening pavements to traffic 4–6 h after the concrete is placed is becoming more common. HES concrete mixtures are typically designed with a low water-to-cement ratio and a high cement content; they contain accelerating admixtures and limited supplementary cementitious materials. As a result, these HES patches may be susceptible to self-desiccation, causing autogenous shrinkage and early age cracking. Self-desiccation can lead to reduced hydration, limited strength gain, and overestimation of strength development in maturity-based predictions. The objectives of this study are threefold. First, the paper will illustrate how self-desiccation can lead to the premature cessation of hydration and increased potential for shrinkage cracking. Second, the paper will illustrate how maturity-based predictions can be modified to account for self-desiccation. Third, internal curing is discussed as a way to mitigate self-desiccation and shrinkage ultimately improving the performance of HES concrete patching materials.

The effects of aggregate size and supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) on the rheology of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) were studied in this paper. Two main concrete mixtures with different maximum aggregate sizes were prepared and investigated. The first mix had a maximum size aggregate of 5 mm and the second mix was with 20 mm max size aggregates. All mixes incorporated different dosages of Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). The rheology of all mixes investigated was measured over 2 hour time period. It was found that the size of aggregates and GGBS dosage have influence on the yield stress of studied concrete mixes.

The resonance frequency method is one of many non-destructive tests which allow us to evaluate construction materials. It was used to determine the dynamic properties of concrete, required in structures design and control, also considered as the key elements for materials dynamic. In this study, we chose a non-destructive approach to quantify-in laboratory-, the influence of adding “crushed limestone” and “natural pozzolan” on local concrete’s dynamic characteristics. However, several concrete mixtures have been prepared with limestone aggregates. The experimental used plan, allowed us to determine the dynamic modulus of elasticity, the dynamic modulus of rigidity of different formulated concretes.
