Whereas for classical Portland cement clinker, comprehensive studies are already available on the microstructural development during hydration as well as on the resulting macromechanical properties such as compressive strength or long-term deformation behavior, such understanding is missing for calcined clays. In this paper, systematic micromechanical investigations using microindentation of hardened cement pastes with various amounts of calcined clay at ages up to 28 days are presented. The micromechanical results indicate a faster strength development as well as a lower overall porosity of the classical clinker system compared to mixtures containing calcined clay. Looking to creep, the indentation creep modulus is higher for pure OPC mixtures compared to calcined clay systems up to seven days, indicating less pronounced creep. Beyond this age, however, the differences in creep behaviour became less pronounced. The outcomes suggest that the reactivity of the calcined clay seems to be decisive when it comes to mechanical properties and creep behaviour rather than the rate of substitution.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":100223,"journal":{"name":"ce/papers","volume":"6 6","pages":"431-440"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cepa.2785","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138502667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
