Green options for anti-corrosion of high strength concrete incorporating ternary pozzolan materials
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017 This paper applied the densified mixture design algorithm(DMDA) method by incorporating ternary pozzolans (fly ash, slag and silica fume; mix I and mix II) to design high strength concrete (HSC) mixtures with w/cm ratios from 0.24 to 0.30.

Some considerations about the durability of historic mortars [PDF]
, 2008 The current manuscript discusses the durability of historical mortars. The majority of the descriptions about those mortars are mainly related to the Roman period and refer the mixture of calcium hydroxide and pozzolans (volcanic ashes and calcined ...

Evaluation of electric properties of cement mortars containing pozzolans
Materiales de Construccion, 2011 In this paper the evolution of the microstructure of Portland cement mortar is analyzed, by using electrical impedance measurements. Cement mortars are compared without and with two pozzolanic substitutions: spent fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (FCC ...

Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 2277-2295, April 2025.Abstract Spent diatomaceous earth, a by‐product of wine filtration, holds significant promise for use in concrete mixtures due to its pozzolanic properties, which enhance concrete performance. This research explores the application of spent calcined diatomaceous earth (SCDE), heat‐treated at 700°C to remove organic content, as a partial substitute for ...

Materials Science in Ancient Rome [PDF]
, 2011 Two books, the "De Architectura" by Vitruvius and the "Naturalis Historia" by Pliny the Elder, give us a portrait of the Materials Science, that is, the knowledge of materials, in Rome at the beginning of the Empire.

Monitoring the reduction in shrinkage cracking of mortars containing superabsorbent polymers [PDF]
, 2017 Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is characterized by a low water-to-cement ratio, leading to improved durability and mechanical properties. However, the risk for autogenous shrinkage and cracking due to restrained shrinkage increases, which may ...
