The primary concern for glass fiber reinforced cement composites (GFRC) is the durability of glass fibers in the alkaline environment of cement. Despite the use of improved alkaline-resistant glass fibers (AR-glass) and pozzolanic materials such as silica fume and fly ash, durability concerns still
The present paper analyses the influence of three siliceous mineral admixtures or mineral additions, on hydration reactions of two Portland cements with very different mineral composition, but focussing it on the heat hydration parameter, mainly. The main techniques used in the study were conduction
Properties such as porosity, pore-slze distribution, surface area and drying shrinkage are determined for silica fume-portland cement blends (0-30% silica fume) cured from I to 180 days at w/(c+sf) of 0.25 and 0.45. Porosity was measured by helium, mercury and water techniques. It is shown that in p
