Selected Properties of Cementitous Composites with Portland Cements and Blended Portland Cements in Extreme Conditions

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper is focused on research of physico-mechanical properties of concretes with Portland-limestone cement, Blastfurnace cement and Portland-composite cement in comparisom with concrete with Portland Cement CEM I. Following physico-mechanical properties of concretes exposed to extreme conditions were tested: compressive strength, flexural strength, tensille splitting strength, velocity of propagation of ultrasonic pulse, dynamic elasticity modulus and density of hardened concrete. Following environments were used in tests: sulphates, magnesic ions, nitrates, gaseous CO2, high temperatures.
