“…Ultrasonic wave transmission techniques focus on determining different stages during the CBMs structure formation; they especially focus on the setting (initial and final setting times) and early age mechanical properties [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. Acoustic emission techniques are used to detect cement particles’ settlement, segregation, cavitation, migration of water, the formation of hydrates, and early micro-cracking of CBMs in a fresh state and during the solidification process [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ]. Measurement of time-dependent electrical conductivity provides information on early age mechanical properties and different stages during the CBMs structure formation; the influence of aggregate and properties of the interfacial transition zone can be estimated as well [ 8 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ].…”
