Reducing the consumption of cement with simultaneous utilizing waste materials as cement replacement is preferred for reasons of environmental protection. Blended cements consist of different supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), such as fly ash, silica fume, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), natural pozzolans, etc. These materials should be chemically activated to show effec...

The use of supplementary cementing materials is gradually increasing due to technical, economical, and environmental benefits. Supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) are most commonly used in producing ready mixed concrete (RMC). A quantitative understanding of the efficiency of SCMs as a mineral admixture in concrete is essential for its effective utilisation. The performance and effective...

The non-steady-state migration test for measuring the chloride migration coefficient was performed on mortar specimens fabricated with supplementary cementitious materials. A careful examination of the test results revealed that the use of more than one specimen with different test durations is recommended for obtaining reliable chloride migration coefficients. Additionally, the voltage applied...
