The rheological properties of fresh high-performance concrete were investigated with a new rheometer for concrete, BTRHEOM. It was found that, in a steady state, this category of concrete, without or under vibration, behaves as a Bingham material, and can be characterized by the shear yield stress (
Industrial waste is very often immobilized in metallic casks which are then installed in concrete confinement enclosures. High performance concrete types can provide an elegant solution for the storage of waste, with the possibility of avoiding double-wall confinement. This study analyses the behav
The durability of six concretes exposed to magnesium brine was monitored for 24 months. These concretes incorporated ground granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume, and fly ash. The Young's moduli, chloride penetrations, and median pore diameters were measured. There was a cyclic nature to these
