Water Permeability of Cracked Cementitious Composites
Cracking is one of the most severe problems facing the concrete industry worldwide. Of critical importance is the drastic decline of durability associated with these cracks, and the resulting cost of repair or replacement of concrete structures. This research examines the effect of crack width and crack frequency upon the durability of reinforced mortar, quantified by water permeability. Crack ...
متن کاملA New Mathematical Model for Permeability of Composites
Study of permeability of Fibrous Composites is important in several natural and industrial processes in mechanical engineering. In this study, a comprehensive mathematical model is presented for calculation of normal permeability of ordered elliptical fibrous media. An innovative scale-analysis technique is employed for determining the normal permeability of elliptical fibrous media. In this te...
متن کاملEngineered Cementitious Composites
This paper overviews Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) as an emerging construction material. Emphasis is placed on the accumulated knowledge on durability, safety, and sustainability of reinforced ECC (R/ECC) structures, recognizing that the concrete of the future must meet these characteristics. In light of recent and future full-scale field applications of ECC, the limited studies on l...
متن کاملGeneral Design Assumptions for Engineered Cementitious Composites
The use of Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) for structural design requires a number of assumptions of the material, some of which can be drastically different from those suitable for normal concrete and tension-softening fiber reinforced concrete. This contribution focuses on design assumptions of the constitutive models of ECC in tension and compression. Specifically, while the tensile...
متن کاملHygral Behavior of Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC)
In this paper, the sorption isotherm and the hygral deformation of a tensile strain-hardening fiber reinforced engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is described using a physical model. The influence of using a low alkali content Portland cement on the physical mechanisms of drying shrinkage is discussed. From a durability point of view the crack width of a material as a result of restrained ...
