Evolution of microstructural changes in cement paste during environmental drying

Karen Scrivener, Hamed Maraghechi, Wioletta Soja, Fabien Jacques Michel Georget

Exposure of concrete to the atmosphere changes the microstructure of the cement paste. However, knowledge about the alteration of the porosity due to drying is typically not considered in deterioration processes of the hardened cement paste. The purpose of ...

Quantification methods for chloride binding in Portland cement and limestone systems

Karen Scrivener, Wei Sun, Hamed Maraghechi, Shiyu Sui, Fabien Jacques Michel Georget, William Wilson

This paper presents a comparison of methods to quantify the chloride binding capacity for cementitious materials composed of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and Limestone (LS, 0 to 55% replacement). Physical and chemical chloride bindings were investigated ...

Chloride Transport Behavior of LC3 Binders

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet, Hamed Maraghechi

Corrosion of metal reinforcement is the most important durability concern of concrete infrastructures. In this research, chloride transport in mortars prepared using ternary blends of OPC-calcined clay-limestone (LC3) as the cementitious materials is asses ...
