The properties of cement mortars with nano-SiO 2 were experimentally studied. The amorphous or glassy silica, which is the major component of a pozzolan, reacts with calcium hydroxide formed from calcium silicate hydration. The rate of the pozzolanic reaction is proportional to the amount of surface

Porosity and pore size distribution measurements using mercury intrusion are reported for blended mortars (incorporating fly ash) dried by four different drying techniques. The drying techniques were: direct oven drying, solvent replacement drying, and two variations of freeze drying. Significant di
This study presents the results of an experimental investigation to study the effects of partial replacement of fine aggregate with scrap tire-rubber in self-consolidating mortar (SCM). Fresh and hardened properties of SCMs produced at five different replacement ratios of scrap rubber with sand, 0%,
