Chloride Transport Behavior of LC3 Binders

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet, Hamed Maraghechi

Corrosion of metal reinforcement is the most important durability concern of concrete infrastructures. In this research, chloride transport in mortars prepared using ternary blends of OPC-calcined clay-limestone (LC3) as the cementitious materials is asses ...

The Effect of Alkali on the Properties of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

Karen Scrivener, Wilasinee Hanpongpun

The impact of alkali content on the properties of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) was investigated in this study. KOH was added in order to increase the alkali content of the blended cements from 0.44% Na2Oeq to 1.21% Na2Oeq. The increase of alkali ac ...

Alkali Silica Reaction and Sulfate Attack: Expansion of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement

Karen Scrivener, Aurélie Rosine Favier

In this paper, two durability issues: Alkali Silica Reaction (ASR) and external sulfate attack were studied. The results of expansion were presented for a Normal Portland cement and a blended cement LC3 containing calcined clay and limestone as supplementa ...

Autogenous Shrinkage and Creep of Limestone and Calcined Clay Based Binders

Karen Scrivener, Julien Ston, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire

This study explored the delayed strains in limestone and calcined clay ternary blends. Autogenous shrinkage measurements are carried out over 2 months and compressive basic creep tests during 28 days after one month of curing. All tests are done using mixe ...

Calcined clay limestone cements (LC3)

Karen Scrivener, Shashank Bishnoi

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) to replace part of the clinker in cement is the most successful strategy to reduce CO2 emissions in the global cement industry. However, limited supplies of conventional SCMs make it difficult to take ...

A 2D typology generator for historical masonry elements

Katrin Beyer, Shenghan Zhang, Martin Hofmann

The mechanical response of stone masonry depends on the properties of the components and also on the typology created by the stone units and the mortar joints. While the influence of the component strength on masonry is relatively well studied, few studies ...

Shops as the bricks and mortar of place identity

Maxime Carl Felder

“Think of a city and what comes to mind?” asks Jane Jacobs (1961: 29). “Its streets. If a city’s streets look interesting, the city looks interesting; if they look dull, the city looks dull.” In our opinion, Jacobs should have answered: its commercial stre ...

Modified poly(carboxylate ether)-based superplasticizer for enhanced flowability of calcined clay-limestone-gypsum blended Portland cement

Karen Scrivener, Buse Tatli, Aurélie Rosine Favier, Amin Hodaei, Tunahan Aytas

Supplementary materials that are utilized to replace ordinary Portland cement (OPC) decrease the workability of the cementitious mixtures and superplasticizers are usually added to cement to control their fluidity. In general, current superplasticizers are ...
