Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pozzolanic and cementitious admixtures are becoming increasingly important to enhance the environmental friendliness of portland-cement concrete and to improve workability, durability, and other properties of the material. This book provides a simple but comprehensive review of the composition and performance of important pozzolanic and cementitious admixtures, such as fly ash, granulated blast-furnace slag, natural pozzolans, silica fume, rice-husk ash and metakaolin.

Book The Uniformity and Influence of Silica Fume from a U S  Source on the Properties of Portland Cement Concrete

Download or read book The Uniformity and Influence of Silica Fume from a U S Source on the Properties of Portland Cement Concrete written by MF. Pistilli and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silica fume is formed during the manufacture of ferrosilicon in electric submerged-arc furnaces. The use of silica fume has been evaluated in portland cement concrete. Thirty samples of silica fume, each collected on consecutive days from SKW Alloys, Inc. in Calvert City, KY, were analyzed for routine quality control tests of a pozzolan. Six of these samples, representing the variations of the routine tests, were tested for complete ASTM Specification for Fly Ash and Raw or Calcined Natural Pozzolan for Use as a Mineral Admixture in Portland Cement Concrete (C 618) conformance. Laboratory mixtures of air-entrained and nonair-entrained concrete, containing a representative sample of silica fume, were cast for compressive strength (1 to 120 days), drying shrinkage, and time of set. Although a classification for silica fume is not currently contained in ASTM C 618, all of the samples tested were found to conform when compared to the requirements of this standard, with the exception that the water requirement was excessive.

Book Supplementary Cementing Materials

Download or read book Supplementary Cementing Materials written by Rafat Siddique and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-28 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to consolidate the published research related to the use of Supplementary Cementing Materials in cement and concrete. It comprises of five chapters. Each chapter is devoted to a particular supplementing cementing material. It is based on the literature/research findings published in journals/conference proceeding, etc. Topics covered in the book are; coal fly ash, silica fume (SF), granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), metakaolin (MK), and rice husk ash (RHA). Each chapter contains introduction, properties of the waste material/by-product, its potential usage, and its effect on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete and other cement based materials.

Book Properties of Fresh and Hardened Concrete Containing Supplementary Cementitious Materials

Download or read book Properties of Fresh and Hardened Concrete Containing Supplementary Cementitious Materials written by Nele De Belie and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the current knowledge on the effect of SCMs (slag, fly ash, silica fume, limestone powder, metakaolin, natural pozzolans, rice husk ash, special SCMs, ternary blends) on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete (e.g. early strength development, workability, shrinkage) and curing requirements. Other topics treated in the book are postblending vs preblending, implications of SCM variability, interaction between SCM and commonly used admixtures (e.g. superplasticizers, air entrainers).

Book Investigation of Concrete Containing Condensed Silica Fume

Download or read book Investigation of Concrete Containing Condensed Silica Fume written by Hamdi Celik Ozyildirim and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The properties of hydraulic cement concretes containing silica fume were investigated to assess their suitability for use in overlays with s minimum thickness of 1 1/4 in. The properties studied were compressive and flexural strengths, bond strength, modulus of elasticity, permeability, freeze-thaw resistance, thermal expansion, and drying shrinkage. The characteristics of sir voids in the hardened concrete were determined by petrographic examination. The study was conducted in two stages: the first to determine the mixture proportions that would yield satisfactorily high strengths and low permeabilities, and the second to conduct the main testing program. Silica fume from two sources was used. Concretes made with silica fume from either source at a water-cement ratio of 0.40 or lower and s replacement rate of 5% yielded the desirable properties. It is expected that concretes made with silica fume can provide a cost-effective protective system for bridge decks when placed in overlays with s minimum thickness of 1 1/4 in.

Book Lea s Chemistry of Cement and Concrete

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.
