Research on Compresive Strength and Strain of Expansive Concrete

Abstract:

This paper presents chosen results of extensive research conducted on strain and compressive strength of concrete with admixtures causing expansion. The efficiency was tested with use of two commercially available products: MC-Einpresshilfe and Expancrete, as well as self developed, according to own recipe. Own apparatus was designed and presented, which was used for the strain study of concrete. From the tested admixtures, only Expancrete MAPEI allowed to obtain expansive concrete. Other used admixtures - MC-Einpresshilfe and composition of gypsum, lime and kaolin cannot be used to obtain expansive concrete. However, they can reduce concretes shrinkage.
