A Novel Uniaxial Penetration Approach to Investigate Sulfate Attack on Cement-Based Materials

The sodium sulfate crystallization attack in cementitious materials is addressed in this paper. Portland cement, sulfate-resisting cement, and calcined clay limestone cement were compared by the evolution of expansion, sulfate ingress property, and suscept ...

Going Below 50% Clinker Factor in Limestone Calcined Clay Cements (LC3): A Comparison with Pozzolanic Cements from the South American Market

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Limestone calcined clays are a promising technology as they offer similar performance to OPC from 7 days onwards, while enabling a reduction of the clinker content of 50%. In some regions of the world like South America, pozzolanic cements (i.e., blended c ...

Influence of temperature on phase assemblages of belite-ye'elimite cement

Karen Scrivener, Diana Londoño Zuluaga, Natechanok Chitvoranund

This paper studies the effect of temperature on the phase assemblages of belite-ye'elimite cement. A comparison is made between thermodynamic modelling and experimental data at 28 and 180 days of hydration at 5, 20, 40, and 60 degrees C. The fast reaction ...

Al uptake in calcium silicate hydrate and the effect of alkali hydroxide

Karen Scrivener, Yan Yan

The effect of Al and of pH on the structure of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), the most important hydration product in Portland and blended cement, was studied at Ca/Si similar to 1.0. The presence of Al led to higher amounts of secondary phases, larger ...

Effect of different ions on dissolution rates of silica and feldspars at high pH

Karen Scrivener, Mahsa Bagheri

The dissolution kinetics of silica-containing minerals in aggregates influences strongly the process of ASR in concrete. In this paper, the effect of different ions on the dissolution rates of SiO2 (amorphous and quartz) and feldspars at high pH values was ...

A Contribution to the Design of Textile Reinforced Concrete Structures

Patrick Lorenzo Valeri

The reduction of green-house gas emissions is one of the global challenges that our society is facing and the production of cement plays a major role because concrete is the most used material worldwide. For every 1000 kg of cement produced, 900 kg of CO2, ...

Tensile response of UHPFRC under very low strain rates and low temperatures

Emmanuel Denarié, Mohamed Abdul Hafiz

This paper addresses the uniaxial tensile response of Strain Hardening Ultra High-Performance Fiber Reinforced Concretes (SH-UHPFRC) subjected to very low strain rates and low temperatures. The influence of four different strain rates; 1 × 10−5, 1 × 10−7, ...

On the relevance of volume increase for the length changes of mortar bars in sulfate solutions

Karen Scrivener

The ingress of sulfate ions into cementitious materials leads to the formation of ettringite, gypsum and other phases. The increase in solid volume through the formation of these phases is often assumed to be the only reason for expansion. In this paper we ...

Quantitative distribution patterns of additives in self-leveling flooring compounds (underlayments) as function of application, formulation and climatic conditions

Karen Scrivener

The distributions of organic additives in self-leveling flooring compounds (SLCs) were investigated using laser-scanning microscopy for the selective visualization of the additives, which had been previously stained by a fluorescent dye. The distributions ...
