The phase assemblage of binary Portland cements with 45 wt% replacement by calcareous fly ash and slag has been investigated by experiment, mass balance and thermodynamic simulations. The input for these calculations was based on clinker reaction measured ...

Efforts to tune the bulk physical properties of concrete are hindered by a lack of knowledge related to the atomic-level structure and growth of calcium silicate hydrate phases, which form about 50-60% by volume of cement paste. Here we describe the first ...

Development of a new rapid, relevant and reliable (R-3) test method to evaluate the pozzolanic reactivity of calcined kaolinitic clays

Karen Scrivener, Ruben Anton Snellings, Mohsen Ben Haha, François Henri Avet, Adrian Alujas Diaz

The present paper introduces a new rapid, relevant and reliable (R-3) test to predict the pozzolanic activity of calcined clays with kaolinite contents ranging from 0 to 95%. The test is based on the correlation between the chemical reactivity of calcined ...

This paper is the work of working group 3 of the RILEM Technical Committee on Hydration and Microstructure of Concrete with SCM (TC 238-SCM). The pore solution is an essential but often overlooked part of hydrated cements. The composition of the cement por ...

Calcareous fly ashes are high-potential reactive supplementary cementitious materials, which present an interesting alternative to slowly reacting siliceous fly ashes and to slags, which availability is more and more limited. Themain factor against an accu ...

TC 238-SCM - hydration and microstructure of concrete with SCMs: State of the art on methods to determine degree of reaction of SCMs

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Ruben Anton Snellings

This paper is the work of working group 2 of the RILEM TC 238-SCM. Its purpose is to review methods to estimate the degree of reaction of supplementary cementitious materials in blended (or composite) cement pastes. We do not consider explicitly the wider ...

Evolution of pore structure in blended systems

Karen Scrivener, Elise Marie Jeanne Berodier

In this study, the effect of SCM in the cement paste was isolated by using ternary systems combining Portland cement, quartz and SCM. The results show clear differences in how the hydrates from the reaction of clinker, slag and fly ash fill space. The reac ...

Impact of alkali salts on the kinetics and microstructural development of cementitious systems

Berta Mota Gassó

Supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) lower the environmental impact of cement and concrete but react more slowly than Portland cement, which therefore limits the levels of substitution possible as reasonable early strengths are necessary. One of the ...

Influence of visco-elasticity on the stress development induced by alkali-silica reaction

Karen Scrivener, Cyrille Dunant, Alain Benjamin Giorla

The alkali-silica reaction causes long-term degradation in the microstructure of affected concrete as well as macroscopic expansion. In this paper, a micro-mechanical model based upon an explicit representation of the microstructure has been used to simula ...

Alkali Activation of AOD Stainless Steel Slag Under Steam Curing Conditions

Muhammad Salman, Ruben Anton Snellings

Crystalline argon oxygen decarburization slag, in powdery form, was investigated for its hydration potential by alkali activation and curing at 80 degrees C. Na-silicate and K-silicate of the same modulus were used as activators. Isothermal calorimetry at ...
