Effect Of Magnesium Sulphate On Self-Compacting Concrete Containing Supplementary Cementitious Materials, Hilmi Mahmud Jan 2013

Effect Of Magnesium Sulphate On Self-Compacting Concrete Containing Supplementary Cementitious Materials, Hilmi Mahmud

The length change is negligible and can be attributed to the normal distension of concrete. On the other hand, concrete suffering from mass loss gives a good indicator about the durability of SCC. Permeability of concrete is an important factor in classifying its durability generally; concrete with low Permeability will afford better protection of the reinforcement within it than concrete with high Permeability. In this paper, the assessment of magnesium sulphate (MS) attack on concrete containing various ratios of the supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) was investigated for concrete containing FA, RHA, and GGBS with cement replacement levels of 15%, 10%, …
