Learn MorePortland cement concrete is durable in most natural environments; however, concrete is sometimes used in areas where it is exposed to substances that can attack and deteriorate it. This publication discusses the effects of many substances on concrete and provides guidelines to protective treatments.
Learn MoreIn recent years more and more attention has been given to autogenous shrinkage due to the increasing use of high-performance concrete, which always contains supplementary materials. With the addition of supplementary materials-e.g., fly ash and blast furnace slag-internal relative humidity, chemical
Learn MoreThese effects can be controlled to a certain degree by using supplementary cementitious materials. Supplementary cementitious materials such as fly ash, slag and silica fume enable the concrete industry to use hundreds of millions of tons of byproduct materials that would otherwise be landfilled as waste.
Learn MoreCantilever concrete retaining walls are commonly used for residential purposes, often as integral basement walls. Usually the cantilever wall stem is of concrete block construction rising from an in-situ concrete foundation. The following worked example is for a free-standing cantilever wall that is considered
Learn Morebility of concrete incorporating these supplementary cement-ing materials (SCM) should be taken into account. Despite the numerous contributions of a practical or experimental character regarding the effect of SCM on concrete durabil-ity [5-7], it is still not possible to identify the "ideal" con-

Learn MoreConcrete mixture constituents and proportions greatly influence the ability of the concrete to mitigate corrosion of embedded reinforcing steel. Creating a mixture with a dense, impermeable microstructure maximizes its corrosion resistance. This chapter reviews how changes in the mix design and curing of concrete influence its ability to protect steel reinforcement from corrosion, whether
Learn MoreThis volume represents the current knowledge on the effect of SCMs (slag, fly ash, silica fume, limestone powder, metakaolin, natural pozzolans, rice husk ash, special SCMs, ternary blends) on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete (e.g. early strength development, workability, shrinkage) and curing requirements.

The results demonstrate that SCMs at
Learn MoreResults Seventeen comparative studies met the inclusion criteria for final analysis. Overall, there was a composite ASC rate of 1.8% (49/2767) versus 3.2% (168/5222) for TRA and TFA, respectively (P<0.001). TRA was associated with a lower odds of ASC compared with TFA (OR 0.42; 95% CI 0.25 to 0.68, P<0.001, I 2 =31%). There was significantly lower odds of complications within the intervention
