How Efficient are LC3 and GGBFS-Contained Mortar Mixtures Submerged into Na<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> Solution against External Sulfate Attack at an early Age?
Abstract:Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is one of the most widely used construction materials in civil engineering infrastructure construction but it is susceptible to sulfate attack. One of the ways to improve the sulfate resistance of an OPC mortar/concrete is to replace a certain amount of OPC with different pozzolanic materials such as ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and metakaolin. The use of pozzolanic materials to mortar/concrete not only enhances durability but also reduces carbon dioxide (CO2) emi… Show more
