Effect of Gum Arabic karroo as a Water-Reducing Admixture in Concrete
Concrete is one of the most popular construction materials in the world. Chemical admixtures are ingredients added to concrete to enhance its properties. However, most chemical admixtures on the market today are expensive, thereby making them out of reach for small consumers of concrete. In Africa, use of chemical admixtures is rare despite the harsh weather conditions. In the current study, Gu...
متن کاملEffect of Water-cement Ratio on Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete
Corrosion of reinforced concrete is one of the major problems in the construction industry causing premature deterioration of concrete structures well before their service life. This has placed incredible financial burden on many projects and also placed safety of users at risk. A research work was carried out to evaluate the effect of water cement ratio on corrosion of steel in reinforced conc...
متن کاملValue of Admixture in Concrete Mix Design
Despite its few inherent shortcomings, concrete has proved to be the most widely used construction material, no substitute in time still to come. In the present investigation, study of admixture of concrete was carried out. The strength of concrete depends on its mix proportions. We used so many admixture e.g. ‘silica. Fumes, fly ash etc , when we used these type of admixture the result was ver...
متن کاملReplacement of Cement in Concrete
Cement is a binding material, a substance that sets and hardens independently, and can bind other materials together. In ancient civilization the binding materials were of traditional type such as jaggery, lead, jute, rice husk etc, now in modern civilization cement is main binding materials. The use of concrete containing high volume fly-ash has recently gained popularity as a resource efficie...
متن کاملInfluence of cement content on concrete performance in corrosive environments (sea water)
In this study, the effect of cement content on concrete performance in corrosive environments is investigated on concrete mixtures having the same water/cement (w/c) ratio. Three w/c ratios (0.40, 0.45 and 0.50) were used and for each w/c ratio three mixtures were prepared with cement contents 350, 400 and 450 kg/m3. The compressive strength, electrical resistivity and chloride diffusivity of t...
