Factors Affecting Transfer Sorptivity of Lime and Cement Mortars in the Freshly-Mixed State
, 2013 The sorptivity, S, is a measure of the ability of a porous material to absorb and transmit water by capillary action. Transfer sorptivity, A, is a measure of the ability of an absorbent substrate to withdraw water from a wet mortar mix.

Design of an automated tension infiltrometer for unsaturated hydraulic conductivity measurement [PDF]
, 2006 A tension infiltrometer for field use, where both water level changes measurement and tension settings could be automated, was built in-house. Differential pressure transducers were used to automate the water level measurement in the reservoir.

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building EngineeringThis study investigates the effect of super absorbent polymers (SAPs) and glass fiber (GF) additions on the properties of lightweight concrete. The SAPs act as a pore-forming agent, with the addition of various GF contents (0.1–1.0% by weight of dry ...

Water Sorptivity and Permability of New-Old Concrete Composite System
, 2010 Several experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of water to binder ratio(w/b) and mineral admixtures on water sorptivity and permeability of new-old concrete composite system in this paper in order to further understand the transport ...

Sorptivity calculation for arbitrary diffusivity [PDF]
An estimate of the sorptivity that requires only the knowledge of simple integrals of the soil-water diffusivity weighted by a power of the water content is present.
