Water is often added to concrete placing for easy workability and finishability in construction
site. The additional mixing water can help easy mixing and workability but causes increased …

Multi-scale modeling of structural concrete performance is presented as a systematic
knowledge base of coupled cementitious composites and structural mechanics. An …

Granulated slag from metal industries and fly ash from the combustion of coal are industrial
by-products that have been widely used as mineral admixtures in normal and high strength …

To broaden the applications of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforced concrete structures
under marine environments, it is crucial to gain a fundamental understanding of their short …

The hydration heat evolution rate and cumulative hydration heat of composite binder
containing slag, fly ash or quartz powder and the reaction degrees of slag, fly ash and …

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) around the world to improve
concrete performance has increased in recent decades. However, the application of SCMs …

This study set out to investigate the effect of gel migration through micro-pores and cracks on
concrete expansion caused by alkali–silica reaction (ASR). First, sensitivity analyses with …

Over the paste decades a considerable research effort has been attributed to chloride
ingress into reinforced concrete in order to understand the transport mechanisms and to …

This study compares the effects of Temperature Rise Inhibitor (TRI) on the exothermic
process and development of compressive strength of slag/fly ash blended cement systems …

This paper presents a contribution to the modeling of the chemical shrinkage of the slag-
blended cement paste (binder) at early age. Assuming that the chemical shrinkage is a …
