  • Factors Influencing Conversion and Volume Stability in Calcium Aluminate Cement Systems

    Creator:
    Adams, Matthew P. (Matthew Peter)
    Abstract:
    There is renewed interest in North America for the use of calcium aluminate cement (CAC) in infrastructure repair. The interest is driven by the specialty properties that make CAC the ideal candidate for particular applications. These include rapid strength gain, even at temperatures approaching 0°C, the ability to customize fresh...

  • Autogenous deformation and chemical shrinkage of high performance cementitious systems

    Creator:
    Fu, Tengfei
    Abstract:
    In the past ten years, renewed research interest has shown the benefits of internal curing by incorporating saturated lightweight fine aggregate (LWFA) in high performance concrete (HPC). As a result, the technology of internal curing has steadily progressed from laboratory studies to field applications. To determine the optimum LWFA content,...

  • Alkali-silica reaction in concrete containing recycled concrete aggregates

    Creator:
    Adams, Matthew P.
    Abstract:
    Using recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) as a replacement for natural aggregate in new concrete is a promising way to increase the overall sustainability of new concrete. This has been hindered, however, by a general perception that RCA is a sub-standard material due to the lack of technical guidance, specifically related...

  • Internal curing of high-performance concrete for bridge decks

    Creator:
    Deboodt, Tyler
    Abstract:
    High performance concrete (HPC) provides a long lasting, durable concrete that is typically used in bridge decks due to its low permeability, high abrasion resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and strength. However, this type of concrete is highly susceptible to the deleterious effects of both autogenous and drying shrinkage. Both types of...

  • Assessing durability of reinforced concrete and ductile iron

    Creator:
    Shields, Silas A.
    Abstract:
    The first goal of this master’s thesis was to investigate the linkage between a non-destructive testing method, surface resistivity, and premature concrete deterioration brought on by chloride ingress and or freeze-thaw cycling. The experimental method for this project consists of taking surface resistivity measurements of reinforced concrete slabs after they...
