Download or read book Portland Cement written by G. C. Bye and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1999 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portland cement is one of the most traditional of construction materials. Rising costs of the energy required for its manufacture and the increasing interest in understanding the mechanisms of concrete deterioration, as well as the importance of optimising the use of Portland cement in high quality concrete, have continued to sustain interest in this important material. This second edition of this popular book provides an up-to-date introduction to the raw materials and manufacturing processes of Portland cement. It gives an introductory account of cement composition, manufacture, quality assessment, hydration and the resulting microstructure-physical property relationships, and some mechanisms of the chemical degradation of hardened cement paste. The book is primarily intended for students of materials sciences and graduates in pure science or engineering entering the cement or concrete industries. However anyone requiring a good clear introduction to this material will find this book provides helpful information.

Download or read book Lea s Chemistry of Cement and Concrete written by Peter Hewlett and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-11-12 with total page 1087 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lea's Chemistry of Cement and Concrete deals with the chemical and physical properties of cements and concretes and their relation to the practical problems that arise in manufacture and use. As such it is addressed not only to the chemist and those concerned with the science and technology of silicate materials, but also to those interested in the use of concrete in building and civil engineering construction. Much attention is given to the suitability of materials, to the conditions under which concrete can excel and those where it may deteriorate and to the precautionary or remedial measures that can be adopted. First published in 1935, this is the fourth edition and the first to appear since the death of Sir Frederick Lea, the original author. Over the life of the first three editions, this book has become the authority on its subject. The fourth edition is edited by Professor Peter C. Hewlett, Director of the British Board of Agrement and visiting Industrial Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Dundee. Professor Hewlett has brought together a distinguished body of international contributors to produce an edition which is a worthy successor to the previous editions.

Download or read book Changes in Characteristics of Portland Cement as Exhibited by Laboratory Tests Over the Period 1904 to 1950 written by Harrison Frederick Gonnerman and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes the changes in composition, fineness, and strength-producing characteristics of Type I portland cement as exhibited by laboratory tests over the period 1904 to 1950. The principal changes have been an increase in the average computed C3S content and an increase in fineness, each of which has contributed to higher concrete strengths at all ages up to 10 yr, the latest age of test reported in the paper. Most of these changes occurred during the period 1926 to 1940. Under given conditions of test, current Type I cements attain a strength of 3000 psi in about 4 days and 6000 psi in about 40 days whereas it required about 28 days and 8 years respectively to attain these strengths in comparable concretes made with cements purchased during the period 1916 to 1920. It is particularly noteworthy that, although the changes in composition and fineness have greatly increased the strength at early ages, the gain in strength of moist-cured concrete from 28 days to 10 years has remained approximately the same, about 3000 psi. Included in the paper are data comparing composition, fineness, strength-producing characteristics, volume change, heat of hydration, and sulfate resistance of the five types of portland cement covered by ASTM Specification C 150-49.
