Book Freeze Thaw Testing of Coarse Aggregate in Concrete

Download or read book Freeze Thaw Testing of Coarse Aggregate in Concrete written by RH. Vogler and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The procedures used to evaluate the durability of coarse aggregate in concrete by freezing and thawing were determined by a survey. Results indicate that a number of state transportation agencies use freeze-thaw procedures in place of, or in addition to, sulfate soundness and other tests. However, each agency's procedure has unique aspects. ASTM Test Method for Resistance of Concrete to Rapid Freezing and Thawing (C 666) describes the procedures for freeze-thaw cycling and gives partial information on expressing test results, but ASTM has no standard procedure to guide the testing agency in important aspects such as: aggregate grading, aggregate moisture treatment and pretreatment, and concrete mixture proportioning (including cement content, air content of concrete, or curing procedure). The ASTM C 666 method of expressing results for change in length does not permit comparison between different aggregates. The information in this paper is intended to assist ASTM Committee C9 on Concrete and Concrete Aggregates in preparing a practice for evaluation of coarse aggregate in concrete by freezing and thawing.

Book excerpt: "This report provides technical information on pervious concrete's application, design methods, materials, properties, mixture proportioning, construction methods, testing, and inspection. The term 'pervious concrete' typically describes a near-zero-slump, open-graded material consisting of portland cement, coarse aggregate, little or no fine aggregate, admixtures, and water." [p. 1]

Book Freeze Thaw Durability of Concrete

Download or read book Freeze Thaw Durability of Concrete written by J. Marchand and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete durability in climates where freezing and thawing occurs is a continuing problem. It is particularly acute for highway and bridge structures, where de-icing salts are used to combat the effects of frost, snow and ice. These salts can cause damage to concrete and accelerate corrosion of reinforcements. This book presents the latest international research on this area, with contributions from North America and Europe which were presented at an international RILEM workshop.

Book Freeze thaw Durability of Concrete with Natural and Recycled Concrete Aggregates Using Air Entraining Admixture

Download or read book Freeze thaw Durability of Concrete with Natural and Recycled Concrete Aggregates Using Air Entraining Admixture written by Salman Sulaiman and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freezing and thawing cycles is one of the most damaging factors that affect the durability of concrete. The damages caused by the cyclic freeze-thaw action can be divided into two factors. The first factor is an increase in internal crack, which causes the loss in relative dynamic modulus (RDM) of the concrete and the second factor is surface scaling, which leads to weight loss of the concrete. In this study, the durability of concrete made by replacing natural coarse aggregates (NCA) with various percentages of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA). Also some tests have been conducted with the addition of air entraining admixture (AEA). Prior to mixing the concrete, both NCA and RCA were characterized to determine their suitability as a construction material. Concrete mixes consisting of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% replacement (by weight) of NCA with RCA were prepared. The same concrete mixes were prepared again but with the addition of an air entraining admixtures (AEA). All specimens were tested for compressive strength after a curing period of 7, 14, and 28 days. The compressive strength of the concrete made with different percentage of RCA decreases as the percentage of RCA increases. After 28 days of curing, samples with 0, 40, and 100% replacement of NCA with RCA were placed in the freeze-thaw chamber along with 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% NCA replacement containing AEA. After several cycles of freezing and thawing; the RDM, change in weight and change in length were measured. In this study loss of RDM and weight loss were noticed, as the cyclic freeze-thaw increases. It has also been observed that concrete mixes containing AEA were still durable after 300 cycles of freezing and thawing; however, the specimens without AEA failed before 150 cycles.
