Recent advances in embedded technologies and self‐sensing concrete for structural health monitoring
Abstract Fully embedded and spatially diffuse sensors are central to the advancement of civil and construction engineering. Indeed, they serve as an enabling technology necessary for addressing the current challenges associated with through‐life management and structural health monitoring of existing structures and infrastructures. The need to identify

Experimental data of cement grouting in coarse soils with different superplasticisers
High-range water reducers, such as superplasticisers, can be potentially viable for cement grouting applications. In this study, we investigate the influence of two types of superplasticisers—one based on polycarboxylate ether and another based on ...

High-Power Fiber Laser Cutting for 50-mm-Thick Cement-Based Materials [PDF]
This experimental research highlights the applicability of laser cutting to cement-based materials using multimode fiber lasers. A 9 kW multimode fiber laser is used, and the experimental variables are the water-to-cement ratio, laser speed, and material

Evaluation of the compatibility between PCEs possessing varying anionic charge densities and Portland cements with different C3A contents. ABSTRACT This study focused on the compatibility of phosphate and sulfonate‐substituted polycarboxylate ether‐based water‐reducing admixtures (PCE) exhibiting different anionic charge densities with Portland cements

Structure and mineral composition of soil-cement with complex additive
The effect of the polycarboxylate ether and the complex hydrophobic-plasticizing additive on the structure, phase and mineral composition of cement based on polymineral clay with content of relict minerals more than 85 % (52.49 % of quartz) was studied ...

The Impact of DNA as a Chemical Admixture for Cementitious Materials
DNA molecules are added to cement pastes and their effects on rheology and hydration time are studied. DNA's chemical structure is composed of polysaccharide and phosphate groups, which are active functional groups in different commercial chemical admixtures: Viscosity modifiers and superplasticizers.

Interaction between cements with different composition and superplasticizers
The slump behavior of ordinary Portland-, pozzolanic (red brick powder)-, sulfate resistant-, and limestone cement pastes caused by ≤ 1% additions of polycondensates and polycarboxylates superplasticizers are monitored for up to 90 minutes.

Effect of sodium hexametaphosphate and trisodium phosphate on dispersion of polycarboxylate superplasticizer [PDF]
The high fluidity cement-based material has been widely used in indoor floor, grout, pumping concrete and self-compacting concrete. Efficiently dispersing the cement grains is essential for the practical application of this kind of material. Generally,
