“…GGBS provides advantages to concrete, lower permeability, higher sulfate and acid resistance, long-term strength, and lower heat of hydration [25]. Silica fume is an ultrafine amorphous powder of silicon dioxide with pozzolanic effect which fills the space among the cement particles to form a dense concrete matrix and interfacial transition zone (ITZ); this will increase the compressive strength and decrease the permeability of concrete [26][27][28].…”

Fly ash (FA) has been an important ingredient for engineered cementitious composite (ECC) with excellent tensile strain capacity and multiple cracking. Unfortunately, the frost resistance of ECC with high-volume FA has always been a problem. is paper discusses the influence of silica fume (SF) and ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) on the frost resistance of ECC with high volume of FA. Four ECC mixtures, ECC (50% FA), ECC (70% FA), ECC (30% FA + 40% SL), and ECC (65% FA + 5% SF), are evaluated by freezing-thawing cycles up to 200 cycles in tap water and sodium chloride solution. e result shows the relative dynamic elastic modulus and mass loss of ECC in sodium chloride solution by freeze-thaw cycles are larger than those in tap water by freeze-thaw cycles. Moreover, the relative dynamic elastic modulus and mass loss of ECC by freeze-thaw cycles increase with FA content increasing. However, the ECC (30% FA + 40% SL) shows a lower relative dynamic elastic modulus and mass loss, but its deflection upon four-point bending test is relatively smaller before and after freeze-thaw cycles. By contrast, the ECC (65% FA + 5% SF) exhibits a significant deflection increase with higher first cracking load, and the toughness increases sharply after freezethaw cycles, meaning ECC has good toughness property.

“…Each year, in spite of 250 million tones production of BFS in the world, just 90 million tones of it has been utilized in the production of concrete [17]. Similar to FA, utilization of BFS in concrete may increase the workability, durability and long-term properties of concrete [17,18].…”

h i g h l i g h t sSeveral amounts of SCM were used as binary, ternary and quaternary blends in SCC. Silica fume, Class C and F fly ash, metakaolin and slag were studied in one paper. Good correlation was established between permeable voids and water absorption rate. SCM reduced the permeability of almost all mixtures. Class C fly ash improved the permeability better than Class F fly ash. a r t i c l e i n f o b s t r a c tIn this study, permeability properties of 17 self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures containing various supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) were investigated by different experimental approaches. The effects of SCM type and content on the compressive strength, rapid chloride ion permeability (RCPT), water penetration depth, water absorption and sorptivity were studied. For these purposes, various amounts of silica fume (SF), metakaolin (MK), Class F fly ash (FAF), Class C fly ash (FAC) and granulated blast-furnace slag (BFS) were utilized in binary, ternary, and quaternary cementitious blends. Results showed that partial replacement of PC by SCM increased the compressive strength of control mixtures at 28 and 90 days (except for FAF at 28 days). Mixtures containing MK presented a better performance compared to other SCM at 7 days. The utilization of SCM reduced the RCPT results of almost all mixtures compared to the control mixtures and the reduction was more significant with an increase in the SCM content. All of the mixtures containing SCM had lower penetration depths when compared to reference mixtures at 28 and 90 days. Good correlations were established between the percentage of permeable voids and water absorption. Moreover, there was an inverse but almost linear relationship between permeable voids content and compressive strength of the mixtures.
