Monitoring of Chemical Resistance of New Grouting Materials

Abstract

This paper deals with the study of chemical resistance of new cement-based grout for invert grouting. The aim of this work is to verify new mixtures with specific admixtures. The study monitors resistance to external sulphate attack. Specimens were placed into sulphate solution 29.8 g∙l-1 (44 g∙l-1 Na2SO4) according to DIN19753 standard. Based on the results gained, new mixtures will be designed and optimized by addition of suitable secondary raw materials (fly ash, waste foundry sand, waste glass, waste filers).
