Moisture Migration in High Strength Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

Moisture transport in high strength concrete is investigated in this paper. The experiment that involves the water suction is carried out in a long-term. The moisture profiles are measured by non-destructive capacitance method, the last profile is determined gravimetrically. The suction experiment is carried out in isothermal condition at the temperature of 22±1 °C and 25-30% relative humidity.
