The effect of concrete composition on laser scabbling

Abstract: Laser concrete scabbling is the process by which the surface layer of concrete may be removed through the use of a low power density laser beam. The main aim of this investigation was to establish relationships between laser interaction time and volume removal for a wide range of material compositions, including different w/b ratios, binder compositions (OPC/PFA), aggregate/binder ratios and coarse aggregate sizes. The results show that 25% replacement of ordinary Portland cement with pulverised fuel ash and/o… Show more

“…Volume removal of mortars was higher than that of concretes [2,3]; 2. The primary driving force for laser scabbling of concretes developed in the mortar and not in the coarse aggregates [2,3]; 3. The dominant mechanism for scabbling of mortars was a combination of thermal stress spalling and pore pressure spalling (which is reduced due to the reduction of available water in the mortars compared to the cement pastes) [3]; 4.…”
