Durability of high belite cement as new technical solution for concrete

Durability of Saw-cut Joints in Plain Cement Concrete Pavements

Durability Study Partially Saturated Fly Ash Blended Cement Concrete

This paper presents the experimental results of the investigation of various properties related to the durability and longterm performance of mortars made of Fly Ash blended cement, FA and Ordinary Portland cement, OPC. The properties that were investigated in an experimental program include; equilibration of specimen in different relative humidity, determination of total porosity, compressive ...

The Effects of Water/Cement Ratio and Air Entraining on Portland Cement Concrete Freeze/Thaw Durability

This paper deals with the issues of air entraining and water/cement ratio in Portland Cement Concrete as related to its freeze thaw durability. Practices have been in place for nearly thirty years which demanded high early strengths in Portland Cement Concrete pavements. This paper looks at those practices, investigates the correlation between water/cement ratio and air entraining, and presents...

Durability of class C fly ash belite cement in simulated sodium chloride radioactive liquid waste: influence of temperature.

This work is a continuation of a previous durability study of class C fly ash belite cement (FABC-2-W) in simulated radioactive liquid waste (SRLW) that is very rich in sulphate salts. The same experimental methodology was applied in the present case, but with a SRLW rich in sodium chloride. The study was carried out by testing the flexural strength of mortars immersed in simulated radioactive ...

Effect of Alccofine on Mechanical and Durability Index Properties of Green Concrete (TECHNICAL NOTE)

In the modern era, many research works are being carried out throughout the world for finding out a suitable cementitious material for the replacement of cement. The supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) can be used as a replacement of cement in the construction industry to minimize the carbon dioxide emission which is implicated in global warming and climatic changes in the environment. T...
