The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) to lower the clinker factor of cements is now commonplace, for it benefits performance, economics and ecology. This thesis focuses on ternary blends of limestone and calcined kaolinitic clays, two very ...
Through a collaborative work established between CIDEM and the Laboratory of Construction Materials at EPFL, a new cementitious system based on a synergetic combination of calcined clay and limestone as Portland's clinker replacement was developed. The nov ...
H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxometry, supported by X-Ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis, has been used to characterise microstructure of white cement pastes underwater cured at temperatures in the range 10 degrees C to 60 degrees C. ...
Nature produces CaCO3-based materials that display fascinating mechanical properties. These properties are a result of the exquisite control over the formation of CaCO3 crystals that nature possesses. Such a high level of control is likely achieved, at lea ...
This paper focuses on the unidirectional dynamic shake-table test performed on a prototype of a natural stone masonry building aggregate. The half-scale prototype was designed to reproduce the features of existing unreinforced stone masonry building aggreg ...
This article presents a new model for the main hydration peaks of tricalcium silicate and alite on the assumption that C-S-H nucleates and grows as needles. The model relies only on directly observable quantities and reproduces the transition from the acce ...
In this paper, we show a new technique to characterize fly ashes using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Chemical composition of millions of points is measured by SEM-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and plotted in a ternary frequency plot. This new ...
The present study investigates the photocatalytic degradation of three quinolone antibiotics (i.e., Flumequine (FLU), Oxolinic Acid (OA) and Nalidixic Acid (NA)) in mono-, binary and ternary compound systems. The closed-loop step photo-reactor and TiO2 imp ...
Ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced cement-based composite (UHPFRC) has been increasingly adopted for rehabilitation projects over the past two decades, proving itself as a reliable, cost-efficient and sustainable alternative against conventional metho ...
Calcium sulphoaluminate cements (CSA) with the main phase yeâelimite are a promising class of non-Portland cements which are gaining increasing interest from the cement industry. However, the hydration kinetics of CSA cements varies strongly, even for ce ...
