Mercury Porosimetry tests have shown that steam cured cement pastes have a coarser pore structure than cement pastes cured at room temperature. Heating of mature, room temperature cured pastes also makes the pore structure coarser, It was found that specimen size has an important influence on the me

โฆ Synopsis
Communicated by W. L. Dolch) (Received Dec. 4, 1974) Mercury Porosimetry tests have been made on four different particle sizes of the same mature hardened cement paste, w/c = 0.40. The pore volume penetrated by mercury appears to be independent of particle size. The pore size distribution functions show an increasing concentration of large pores for decreasing particle sizes. Versuche mit dem Quecksilber-Porosimeterverfahren sind vorgenommen worden mit 4 verschiedenen PartikelgrSssen desselben Zementsteins, w/c = 0.40. Das Porenvolumen, durchdrungen yon Quecksilber, schelnt unabh~ngig vonder PartikelgrSsse zu sein. Die Verteilungsfunktion der PorengrSsse zeigt eine steigende Konzentration yon groben Poren bei fallender Partikelgr~sse.

The moisture permeability of hardened cement paste is normally not a constant, because it depends on both the porosity and the relative humidity (RH) in the pores of the cement paste when RH exceeds approximately 60 to 70%. The measured results show a strong relationship between the porosity of the
