Review on the deterioration and approaches to enhance the durability of concrete in the freeze-thaw environment

Ruijun Wang et al.

Summary: This overview explains the freeze-thaw durability mechanisms of concrete and proposes measures for enhancement. Concrete additives can effectively improve freeze-thaw durability by improving pore systems, reducing water absorption, and controlling crack resistance. Furthermore, the concept of designing a durable concrete cover system is introduced.

Deterioration of concrete under the coupling effects of freeze-thaw cycles and other actions: A review

Ruijun Wang et al.

Summary: The coupling action between freeze-thaw (FT) cycles and chemical actions is a significant cause of concrete deterioration, with the combination of different degradation processes potentially resulting in more severe damage. Chemical actions have both positive and negative effects on FT cycles, while physical actions only exacerbate FT damage in synergy.

Pore structure characteristics of concrete composites with surface-modified carbon nanotubes

Jialiang Wang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the surface-modified CNTs can reduce the pore content and size of RPC composites, thereby modifying their pore structure characteristics. Different types of CNTs have varying effects on the pore structure, with hydroxyl functionalized and nickel-coated CNTs causing the shrinkage of gel structure, while carboxyl functionalized CNTs inducing the transformation of nano-scale pores inside the gel. The effects of surface-modified CNTs on the pore structure of RPC composites are primarily on the nano- and micrometer scale.

Application of Low-Field NMR to the Pore Structure of Concrete

Lei Liu et al.

Summary: The study used LF-NMR measurements and MIP to evaluate the influence of water-binder ratio, fly ash replacement, and curing regimes on the pore structure of concrete, showing significant effects on porosity, pore size distribution, and compressive strength. The relationship between compressive strength and porosity, pore size distribution was established based on LF-NMR test results.

Investigating pore structure of nano-engineered concrete with low-field nuclear magnetic resonance

Jialiang Wang et al.

Summary: The pore structure of reactive powder concrete (RPC) with nanofillers is closely related to the dispersion quality, content level, and internal structure of nanofillers. Nanofillers, including zero-dimensional nanoparticles, one-dimensional nanotubes, and two-dimensional nanosheets, have been found to reduce the porosity of RPC and cause shrinkage of gel pores and fine capillary pores. Among the different types of nanofillers, one-dimensional nanotubes are most effective in reducing porosity, while zero-dimensional nanoparticles have a more pronounced impact on pore size reduction. The effect of nanofillers on the pore structure of RPC is mainly attributed to the conversion of pore water inside C-S-H gel, inducing reorganization of gel structure.

Influence of primary cracks on static and fatigue compressive behavior of concrete under water

Taito Miura et al.

Summary: The presence of a primary crack significantly reduces the compressive strength of concrete under water, leading to a drastic decrease in fatigue life. A modified model and design code are proposed to address the reduction in stress amplitude due to the crack.

Crack monitoring and damage assessment of BFRP-jacketed concrete cylinders under compression load based on acoustic emission techniques

Gao Ma et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that AE monitoring effectively captured the characteristics of the cracking process of FRP-jacketed concrete, and revealed that the cracking process of BFRP-jacketed concrete differed from that of unjacketed concrete, including a prolonged AE stable developing stage, significantly higher crack intensity analysis parameters, and delayed occurrence of shear cracks.
