ASTM C1202 tests were conducted at various ages with the corresponding surface resistivity test, and the results were compared. Samples tested included field- and laboratory-prepared samples. The laboratory test matrix tested several mixtures common to Louisiana at a wide range of ratios of water to cementitious materials (w/cm) to evaluate the range of the surface resistivity meter. The surface resistivity measurements correlated well with rapid chloride permeability measurements across a wide range of permeability values and sample testing ages. Suitable correlations were found between both the 14-day and the 28-day surface resistivity values and the 56-day rapid chloride permeability values. The variability of the surface resistivity test results is usually less than the variability of the rapid chloride permeability test results. The surface resistivity meter was also able to identify great differences in w/cm ratios for the same mixtures. The surface resistivity meter was determined to be user friendly. The preliminary cost–benefit analysis showed that implementation of the device would save the department about $101,000 in personnel costs in the first year. It is estimated that contractors would save about $1.5 million in quality control costs. The cost–benefit ratio for this project is estimated to be about 15. A Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development test requirements procedure, TR 233, has been developed and implementation of the surface resistivity device has begun.

The utilisation of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is widespread in the concrete industry because of the performance benefits and economic. Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash (FA) have been used as the SCMs in concrete for reducing the weight of cement and improving durability properties. In this study, GGBFS at different cement replacement ratios of 0%, 20%, 40% and 60% by weight were used in fine-grained concrete. The ternary binders containing GGBFS and FA at cement replacement ratio of 60% by weight have also evaluated. Flexural and compressive strength test, rapid chloride permeability test and under-water abrasion test were performed. Experimental results show that the increase in concrete strength with GGBFS contents from 20% to 40% but at a higher period of maturity (56 days and more). The chloride permeability the under-water abrasion reduced with the increasing cement replacement by GGBFS or a combination of GGBFS and FA

Durability Of Concrete

The life of the concrete is strongly influenced by durability parameters. The permeability is one of the main characteristics influencing the durability of concrete. The concrete is more permeable due to the ingress of water, oxygen, chloride, sulphate, and other potential deleterious substances. The durability of concrete is mainly affected by pore structure system of concrete and addingthe supplementary cementitious materials (SCM), such as fly ash, slag cement, and silica fume can be decrease permeability. Crystalline technology enhances the strength of concrete by filling the poresand micro-cracks with non-dissolvable substances. To study the efficiency of crystalline formation in concrete in terms of more permeable should be guaranteed through a specific technique.The effectiveness of crystalline waterproofing system with partial replacement cement by GGBS is studiedin terms of strength and durability. The performance of the two different types of crystalline waterproofing integral admixtures has been studied for compressive strength, Split tensile strength, workability, water permeability, Rapid chloride permeability test and porosity in this paper.The early strength increased in GGBS with crystalline admixture concretes compare to the control concrete. No significant strength reduction is observed in GGBS concretes with crystalline admixture when replaced with 20% and 40% of cement than control concrete.

This paper discusses on Rapid Chloride Permeability Test investigations on penetration of chloride ions included with replacement of cement by flyash material. By weigth of cement, the fly ash content is replaced from 0% to 60%. Concrete mixes with different binder content varies from 350, 400 and 450 kg/m3 were proportioned with different water binder(w/b) ratios = 0.4, 0.45 and 0.50. Specimens were casted and tested for 28 days. For all the combinations, RCPT was carried out and the charge passed through the specimens was noted. Rapid Chloride Permeability Test value of concrete without fly ash was found to be more than the concrete with fly ash. The Rapid Chloride Permeability Test values are found to be decreased if the percentage of flyash increases. The reason could be the pozzolanic reaction products (CSH) fill the pores between the cement pastes and cause a denser concrete matrix, resulting in better durability. Hence, it can be suggested that the fly ash concrete up to 50% replacement can be used for variety of applications.

Early Hydration

The main concern of this work is to evaluate the influences of supplementary cementitious materials (fly ash, slag) and a new type of polycarboxylate superplasticizer containing viscosity modifying agents (PCE-VMA) on the performance of self-compacting concrete (SCC). The workability, hydration process, mechanical property, chloride permeability, degree of hydration and pore structure of SCC were investigated. Results indicate that the addition of fly ash and slag slows down early hydration and decreases the hydration degree of SCC, and thus leads to a decline in compressive strengths, especially within the first 7 days. The addition of slag refines pore structure and contributes to lower porosity, and thus the chloride permeability of SCC is decreased during the late hydration stage. Additionally, a new factor of calculated water–binder ratio is put forward, which can directly reflect the free water content of concrete mixture after mixing, and guide the mix proportion design of SCC.
