Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thermal protection requirements for cold weather masonry, as established in current industry specifications, were evaluated. Experiments were conducted to define the most relevant factors in the process of freezing of newly placed mortar. The effect of unit absorption on the moisture content of mortar during the first hours after assembly was assessed. Correlations of moisture content with time were developed for mortar in contact with masonry units. Frost immunity thresholds in terms of mortar moisture content and in terms of maturity were determined. The test results provided the basis for new proposed guidance on when fresh mortar can be safely exposed to freezing temperatures. Test methods for evaluation of the freeze thaw resistance of masonry units were evaluated. A new test was proposed and adopted by ASTM as a new standard test for the freeze thaw testing of masonry units. In addition, several chemicals were evaluated for their potential as antifreeze admixtures for masonry mortar. Antifreeze admixtures were first developed for use in concrete, but the practicality of using antifreeze admixtures in masonry mortars was demonstrated in a field application in Michigan during the winter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masonry systems are vulnerable to cold climates during construction and service. In North America, this issue is a major concern for masonry contractors as they either have to implement thorough heating practices for laying and curing masonry systems or postpone the construction to warmer seasons. This might lead to loss of productivity, delays in construction schedules, and, inevitably, extra costs. To minimize the adverse effects of cold weather on masonry construction, a new approach based on the use of nanoparticles in the mixture design of mortar joints is proposed. Previous research on the use of nanoparticles in cement-based materials has shown that nanoparticles can significantly accelerate the kinetics of hydration of cementitious binders under normal temperatures (22°C ± 2°C). In this study, an effort is made to assess the effect of nano-alumina (NA) and nano-silica (NS) with dosages of 0 %, 2 %, and 4 % by mass of masonry cement on the performance of mortar mixtures prepared and cured at 5°C. The key assessment criteria were based on fresh properties, compressive strength, and microstructural features. The results indicated that mortar mixtures containing NS had better performance than that of the other mixtures with or without NA, which suggests the promising use of NS in cold weather masonry construction.
