Chloride ion resistance of self-compacting concretes incorporating volcanic materials
HighlightsThe incorporation of alternative materials in the production of self-compacting concretes (SCCs) as a great option to increase its acceptance and reduce the cement consumption.The incorporation of different volcanic materials had important role in the fresh and hardened properties of the SCCs, and high durability in the presence of aggressive agents (chlorides).The use of the volcanic materials as partially replacing the cement provide savings on the use of others additives, like viscosity modifying agents, which results in a lower production cost.
AbstractThis paper examines the effect of incorporating considerable amounts of Colombian volcanic material to self-compacting concrete (SCC) as a pozzolanic addition for rheological improvement, including the effects on the mechanical properties and chloride resistance. In particular, the volcanic materials used as parts of binary and ternary concrete mixtures in this study were Tolima (TVM), Puracé (PVM) and Bocayá (BVM). This paper shows that incorporating volcanic materials, both inert (TVM) and pozzolanic (PVM and BVM), results in SCCs with good workability, moderate mechanical properties and high durability in the presence of aggressive agents such as chlorides.
