Durability deterioration of cementitious concrete and reinforced concrete (RC) is critical to
durability, safety, and sustainability of infrastructures, especially for offshore concrete …

In cold regions, the action of freeze–thaw (FT) cycles is regarded as the main cause of
concrete deterioration. The coupling actions between FT cycles and chemical actions, such …

The desire to accelerate cement hydration for faster construction processes is almost as old
as cement itself. In recent years, however, new requirements for the acceleration, and the …

Scouring action is recognized as one of the primary causes of the degradation of marine
concrete in tidal and splash zones. It is not ignored that the deterioration of marine concrete …

This paper analyzes and discusses in depth the development of hydration of ternary cement
pastes with silica fume (8%) and nano-silica (3%), with water/binder (w/b) ratios of 0.4 and …

This study investigated effects of the sodium chloride on the microstructural and mechanical
properties of alkali activated volcanic ash (VA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag as …

Numerous factors influence the concrete performance in dry-wet cycle environment, with dry-
wet ratio and temperature being particularly significant. In this paper, the effect of dry-wet …

Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is an inorganic binder produced by calcining a blend of
siliceous and calcareous material at approximately 1450 C in a rotating kiln. The resulting …

The organic/inorganic hybrid fluid loss additive PANIsingle bondCsingle bondSsingle
bondH was synthesized to adapt for high salinity cementing at ultrahigh temperatures (UHT …

This paper evaluated the feasibility of using residual sugar cane bagasse ash with a high
carbon content (as-received SCBA) as raw material to produce a pozzolan after controlled …
