The influence of heterogeneity of cementitious matrices, e.g. uneven porosity distribution in repair cement paste or mortar, on surface corrosion of the reinforcing steel was investigated using a low frequency impedance technique. Rebar embedded in lower porosity matrices had lower surface impedance

Portland blast-furnace slag cement pastes were prepared with various water/cement ratios. Specific surface areas and pore structures of the hardened pastes were investigated by nitrogen adsorption. The "accessibility" of the nitrogen molecules to the pore structure is discussed in terms of degree of
Pore solution study has been carried out on 2.43 and 14% C3A hardened cement pastes. Data have been analyzed in conjunction with the data developed in two pore solution studies made by Page and Vennesland and Diamond using 7.37 and 9.1% C3A mature cement pastes. The results show that C3A and alkali
Cement pastes made with different water-cement ratios were hydrated at different temperatures for different times. The main factor influencing the strength properties of the obtained samples was found to be their porosity, however pores with radii of less than 10 nm affected the resultant strength o
In as series of cements made out of clinkers with variable C3A/C4AF ratios and containing different amounts of gypsum, the strength development and the composition of the hydrated material were studied. For a single clinker composition the obtained strength appears to be just a function of porosity.
