Basic and Hygric Properties of Concrete Containing Fine Ceramic Powder

Article Preview

Abstract:

The motivation for utilization of active admixtures in concrete lies primarily in a positive effect on properties of hardened concrete with regard to its durability. Fine parts complement the grain size distribution curve, but also due to subsequent hydration arise phases with better resistance to aggressive substances from surrounding environment. Process of pozzolanic reaction is also associated with a reduction in open capillary porosity, causing a gradual reduction of the permeability of concrete. The paper presents an experimental program focused on the monitoring of evolution of basic and hygric properties of concrete with fine ceramic powder addition.
