Influence of Curing Temperature on Long-Term Strength of Ecocement Concrete With Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag

Abstract

This study discusses the long-term strength gain of Ecocement with ground granulated blast-furnace slag that it examined the influence of curing temperature. As a result, it was able to be confirmed that the long-term strength gain of Ecocement with ground granulated blast-furnace slag is improved regardless of the curing temperature. Results of pore size distribution, Ecocement with ground granulated blast-furnace slag was acknowledged densification of pore volume. This study had a high correlation between a decrease in the pore volume of 0.01�m or more and compressive strength , it was clarified that the long-term strength gain had improved because of a decrease in these pore volume.
