Reactivity and Performance of Limestone Calcined-Clay Cement (LC3) Cured at Low Temperature

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Limestone calcined-clay cements (LC3) take advantage of the synergetic effects of calcium carbonate reaction with the additional aluminium provided by the calcined clay. As temperature decreases, calcium carbonate solubility increase, therefore, the early- ...

Experimental study on forces exerted on buildings with openings due to extreme hydrodynamic events

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Ioan Nistor

Previous studies and field surveys showed that specific structural designs can decrease the load on free-standing buildings along the coast, providing safer vertical shelters. This experimental study investigated the effect of openings in buildings (window ...

Chemical Influence of Pore Pressure on Brine Flow in Clay-Rich Material

Roman Makhnenko, Etienne André Cassini, Danila Mylnikov

Hydromechanical properties of shales are complex due to the involved ma-terial structure, with the solid matrix being mainly formed by swelling clays and porosity dominated by nanometer scale tortuous voids with large aspect ratios. Intrinsic permeability ...

Pozzolanic reactivity of low grade kaolinitic clays: Influence of calcination temperature and impact of calcination products on OPC hydration

Karen Scrivener, Adrian Alujas Diaz, Rodrigo Fernandez Lopez

The influence of thermal activation temperature in the pozzolanic reactivity of low grade kaolinitic clay and the impact of calcination products in OPC hydration are assessed in this paper. The raw material, with approximately 40% kaolinite and 40% of 2:1 ...

Effect of fineness in clinker-calcined clays-limestone cements

Karen Scrivener, Mathieu Antoni, Adrian Alujas Diaz, Leng Maday Vizcaino Andres

This paper looks at the effect of fineness of the different components in a blend containing 55% Portland cement, 30% calcined clay and 15% limestone. The calcined clay originates from a natural deposit in Cuba and contains less than 50% kaolinite. The par ...

Poroelastic behavior of Calcarenite for the purposes of geologic CO2 storage

Lyesse Laloui, Roman Makhnenko

Geologic CO2 sequestration is considered to be the most promising technique to reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Among all the storage options, deep saline aquifers have the greatest potential and due to their worldwide occurr ...

Numerical Simulation of Porosity in Cements

Karen Scrivener, Shashank Bishnoi, Quang Huy Do

The pores in cementitious materials, their sizes and connectivity have an important influence on the durability of concrete. Several microstructural models have been developed to simulate the three-dimensional pore network in cement pastes. In this article ...
