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 ...
The replacement of clinker with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is the most interesting solution to reduce the CO2 emissions from cement production. The abundant availability of clays, which have a sufficient amount of kaolinite content in Thai ...
The combination of calcined kaolinitic clays and limestone in Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) is a promising approach to reduce the cost and the CO2 emissions of cement production by reducing the clinker content of cement. This thesis investigates the ...
The aim of this thesis is to understand the mechanisms underlying the main hydration peak and later ages of alite hydration; it proposes new mechanistic models for these two stages.Alite is the main constituent of Portland Cement (PC), and is responsible ...
This study aims to demonstrate the robustness of concrete made of limestone calcined clay cement (LC3). Two campaigns were carried out using 375 kg.m(-3) and 500 kg.m(-3) of binder and targeting plastic and self-placing workability, respectively. The concr ...
Interest in innovative construction processes such as 3D concrete printing (i.e. digital construction), is growing rapidly both in academia and industry. Processing conventional geopolymer mixes, in which alkaline solutions are used for activation, could b ...
Exposure of concrete to the atmosphere changes the microstructure of the cement paste. However, knowledge about the alteration of the porosity due to drying is typically not considered in deterioration processes of the hardened cement paste. The purpose of ...
Over the last few decades, ever-increasing demands of society to the built environment have continually increased consumption of energy and materials for the construction and maintenance of structures. Meanwhile, Strain Hardening Ultra High-Performance Fib ...
To reduce the impact of the embodied energy and of the carbon dioxide emissions of concrete, the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in the cement industry has become a common practice. However, the practical experience on such cements is li ...
At the turn of the 19th century, the production and use of concrete were limited by the unavailability of raw materials to produce good cement in several places. From that time onwards, the progress of chemistry and a number of empirical discoveries opened ...
