Nine groups of cement mortar with different mix proportion were designed to measure their fluidity 0h, 0.25h, 0.5h, 0.75h and 1h later, compressive strength and rupture strength of 3d, 7d and 28d were also tested to find out the relationship between compressive strength, rupture strength, water-cement ratio and sand-cement ratio by software Origin. Considered the three factors above, the optimum mixture ratio was determined finally to meet the requirements.

This paper describes an experimental investigation into the pore structure of cement mortar using mercury porosimeter. Ordinary Portland cement, manufactured sand, and natural sand were used. The porosity of the manufactured sand mortar is higher than that of natural sand at the same mix proportion; on the contrary, the probable pore size and threshold radius of manufactured sand mortar are finer. Besides, the probable pore size and threshold radius increased with increasing water to cement ratio and sand to cement ratio. In addition, the existing models of pore size distribution of cement-based materials have been reviewed and compared with test results in this paper. Finally, the extended Bhattacharjee model was built to examine the relationship between compressive strength and pore structure.

To manage tyre waste and conserve natural aggregate resource, this research investigates the use of waste tyre rubber as partial replacement of fine aggregates in non-structural concrete. The research used Taguchi method to study the influence of mix proportion, water-to-cement ratio and tyre rubber replacement percentage on concrete. Nine mixes were prepared with mix proportion of 1:2:4, 1:5:4 and 1:2.5:3; water-to-cement ratio of 0.25, 0.35 and 0.40 and rubber to fine aggregate replacement of 20%, 30% and 40%. Compressive strength and water absorption tests were carried out on 100 mm cubes. Compressive strength was directly proportional to the amount of coarse aggregate in the mix. Water-to-cement ratio increased the strength within the range used in the study. Strength was found to be more sensitive to the overall rubber content than the replacement ratio. Seven out of the nine mixes satisfied the minimum strength requirement for concrete blocks set by ASTM. Water absorption and density for all mixes satisfied the limits applicable for concrete blocks. The study indicates that mix proportions with fine to coarse aggregate ratio of less than 1.0 and w/c ratio around 0.40 can be used with tyre rubber replacements of up to 30 % to satisfy requirements for non-structural concrete.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of lime content (L %) on the plastic properties such as water-cement ratio (w/c), setting times, flowability, compressive, flexural and bond strengths of cement mortar were investigated. Based on the information in the literature the amount of lime varied between 0 to 45% (by weight of cement). The experimental results were compared with the data collected from different research studies and quantified using two different models. The plastic and hardened properties of the cement mortar modified with different percentage of lime were conducted according to the ASTM and BS standards. Based on the literature data the water to cement ratio (w/c) ranged between 0.3-0.74 percent, the w/c of 0.5 was selected in this study. The compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortar modified with lime up to 28 days of curing were ranged between 3 MPa to 65 MPa and 2 MPa to 12 MPa respectively. The compressive, flexural and bond strengths of the cement mortar decreased with increasing lime content. Vipulanandan correlation model was used to correlate the relationship between lime with consistency, setting times, flowability and compressive strength of cement mortar. Compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortar modified with lime were quantified very well as a function of w/c, lime content and curing time using nonlinear relationship.

Keywords: High Performance Concrete, mix proportions, compressive strength , and durability Abstract. The use of concrete materials to date, remain a key ingredient in such construction work on the construction of building, bridges and infrastructure. One indicator is the increased production of readymix concrete which is nearly 16 billion tons in 2010. But the increased used of concrete, apparently bring the impact of environmental damage. This is due to the fact that production of raw materials contributes greatly to CO2 in the air. One effort to reduce such impact is to use of high performance concretes. Mix proportion of High Performance Concrete are strongly determined by the quality and availablity of local materials. The implications of research result from other countries can‘t be directly used. Therefore is need to the research on development of High Performance Concrete mix using locally available materials. In this research the mix proportions for f’c : 60 and 80 MPa are developed using local materials that are commonly used by readymix producers. The high Performance Concrete is developed based on compressive strength and durability. The result is expected to be applied to readymix industry particularly for construction use in Indonesia.

The influence of a type of new generation: superplasticizer (SP), anti-foaming admixture (AFA) and viscosity modifying admixture (VMA) on the air-content, workability of high performance self-compacting concrete (HPSCC) is analyzed in the paper. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of type of the admixtures on porosity of HPSCC in the aspect of the compressive strength. The research results indicated that type of admixtures and its combina­tions result in different strengths of HPSCC, regardless of the total porosity characteristics of HPSCC.

4 kinds of mix proportion High performance concrete (HPC) was manufactured, whose material was produced from Inner Mongolia areas. The compressive strength and the flexural strength of HPC were obtained by the Brine Corrosion experiments. And the resistance to corrosion of HPC was analyzed by the data of Brine Corrosion experiment. Furthermore, the concrete standard curing age of HPC samples was adopted as 28d and 90d, which could impact the resistance of high performance concrete in salt brine corrosion environment. It was turned out that 4 kinds of mix proportion HPC produced a good resistance in salt brine corrosion environment. And the longer the concrete standard curing age was adopted, the better resistance in salt brine corrosion environment of HPC could produce.

It is well known that PC (polycarboxylate) agent is superior to other agents for the early-strength of concrete. Thus, this study investigates the development of mortar strength using various agents. To prove this, various factors were tested. Furthermore, this study measured compressive strength at the age of 18, 24, 36, 72, and 168 hours and gave a request text TG/DTA to observe minute structures. In addition, this study took pictures of minute structures using an SEM for each agent at the same age. According to the results, mortar using an early-strength PC agents is faster than a general water reducing AE agent, high performance PC agents, and other agents in the acceleration of hydration at the same early age. A TG/DTA test shows that the early-strength PC agents create more hydration products, such as Ca(OH)2, than others at the same age. The degree of pH in each agent is unrelated to the degree of hydration in mortar. An MIP analysis confirms these results. However, other methods are required the exact analysis of micro structures.
