In this paper, the influence of geometrical and physical parameters (size of the sand particle, thickness of the interface layer and ratios of the modulus of elasticity) on stress distributions in a mortar is studied. It is found that a weak or soft interface layer in the mortar will greatly reduce
Cement mortars containing 0, i0 and 30 percent silica fume were prepared at water/cement + silica fume ratios of 0.45 and 0.60. Compressive strength, Ca(OH) 2 and non-evaporable water contents and pore-size distribution were monitored up to 180 days. Silica fume reacts with most of the Ca(OH) 2 for
