Studies on Air Permeability of Cellular Concrete

Influence of Controlled Permeability Formwork on the Permeability of Concrete

Corrosion of steel reinforcement related to the intrusion of chloride ion is still the main threats to the durability of concrete structure, especially in marine environment. For the purpose of delaying the Cl− concentration at the surface of steel reinforcement reaching the critical value leading to initial corrosion, the permeability of concrete is usually improved by optimizing the concrete ...

Permeability Study of Cracked Concrete

Cracks in concrete generally interconnect flow paths and increase concrete permeability. The increase in concrete permeability due to the progression of cracks allows more water or aggressive chemical ions to penetrate into the concrete, facilitating deterioration. The present work studies the relationship between crack characteristics and concrete permeability. In this study, feedback controll...

Permeability of Concrete Mix Design

In the present investigation, study of water permeability of concrete was carried out..The strength of concrete is depend on its mix proportions. we used high strength concrete which have its compressive strength is above 50 MPa.in order to measure co-efficient of permeability as per IS:3085-1965,the cylinder with height to diameter ratio equal to one were cast and subjected to a constant press...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
