Abstract:ABSTRACT:In practice, almost all of the concrete structure exposed to environment are partial saturated except the concrete structure under water. So, the influence of W/C and moisture content on capillary absorption of concrete was investigated. Results indicated that the ultimate saturation increases with W/C linearly. The porosity and pore size distribution of concrete will be changed with W/C. Concrete with lower W/C with the same saturation absorbs less water and the rate of capillary absorption is also l… Show more
