چکیده

plastic shrinkage is one of the most important parameter which must be considered in hot weather concreting. if plastic shrinkage is not prevented, cracking will be significant, especialy if silica fume is used in the mix. in this paper, the effect of silica fume in bleeding and evaporation was investigated in laboratory. the results showed that in restrained shrinkage, beside relative humidity, temperature and wind velocity, sun rediation also is very important factor in evaporation rate. it is found that under solar radition condition, the evaporation was much larger than the estimated value in aci 305 nomogram. the rate of evaporaion under solar radiation was about two folds of evaporation rate under shade condition. the results showed that in terms of crack initiation time, crack width and total cracking area, concrete containing silica fume is more severe than concrete with no silica fume. reduction of water cement ratio in concrete with silica fume makes the concrete more sensitive in cracking. the results of this project also showed that the severity of the cracking is not related only to rate of bleeding but all environmental factors including like sun radiation or shading and also mix compositions have important roles.

Improving the workability and strength of silica fume concrete by using silane-treated silica fume

Mortar with high workability even without a water-reducing agent and with high tensile and compressive strengths (3.1 and 78 MPa, respectively) was obtained by using as an admixture silica fume that had been surface treated with a silane coupling agent. The treatment enhanced the wettability of silica fume by water, thereby increasing the workability of the mortar mix. It also enhanced the bond...

Significance of Silica Fume in Enhancing the Quality of Concrete

In the Refractories world three decades ago, very few people were acquainted to silica fume and its usage. After a few years, it was used as an additive to brick. When added to high Alumina brick, mullite was formed in the matrix of the brick on firing, giving the brick good volume stability, strength and chemical resistance. When used in basic brick, high hot strengths resulted, at least at 27...
