Three types of concrete were prepared: plain concrete (C), basalt-polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete (BP) and steel-polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete (SP), three curing conditions were set up in severe cold conditions: no winter construction curing measures (NWCM-1), adoption of winter construction curing measures (AWCM-2) and standard curing measures (SCM-3). Pore structure scans were performed and chloride migration coefficient were tested, the shortest penetration path and pore tortuosity were calculated. This study used the chloride migration coefficient as the basis for evaluating durability, experimental results showed that the highest durability was obtained by the adoption of winter construction curing measures. The pore tortuosity was calculated based on the shortest penetration path of chloride, was highly negatively correlated with the chloride migration coefficient, with a relevant coefficient of 0.902. Winter construction curing measures improved durability by reducing the porosity of the material and increasing the pore tortuosity. Adding fibers had the opposite effect.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142889735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is comprised of high energy storage loaded granules, known as composite PCMs or form-stable PCMs (FSPCMs), containing three types of organic phase change materials (PCM), with phase change transitions between 18 °C and 25 °C. PCMs are effective thermal energy storage systems as they improve thermal comfort of occupants in buildings by reducing temperature fluctuations. As PCMs will undergo many phase transitions throughout their normal life cycle, the effects of thermal cycling on their long-term stability and performance are important considerations in their selection. The limited understanding on the long-term stability and potential for degradation of PCMs has restricted wider use of these materials in the construction sector. In this research, cement mortar and gypsum plaster specimens were subjected to 700 thermal cycles using an environmental chamber. After cycling, experimental results revealed a reduction of latent heat in the solidification process by up to 23% for the pure PCMs and up to 57% for the PCM loaded granules. However, once the PCMs had been incorporated into either the gypsum plaster or cement mortars, there was no significant reduction in the thermal conductivity or the specific heat capacity of these materials. Thermal cycling did not decrease the effectiveness of PCM composites, and so increasing their potential for wider acceptance of these products and use by the construction industry. This will aid the retrofitting of existing low energy efficient buildings to achieve Net-Zero targets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-024-02556-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142880533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a single-factor controlled variable method, AC-20 recycled asphalt mixture was designed to study low-temperature crack resistance through a semi-circular bending (SCB) test, the significance of the effects of different factors was analyzed using the orthogonal test, and the fracture surface morphology was observed. Results show that both material composition and mixing processes impact the low-temperature crack resistance of recycled asphalt mixtures. Specifically, lower RAP content, higher asphalt content, higher mixing temperature, longer mixing duration, and mixing sequence I favor improved low-temperature crack resistance. Gradation type and RAP preheating temperature showed non-linear effects, peaking before declining. Material composition, especially asphalt content, has a more significant effect on the low-temperature crack resistance than mixing process factors. To achieve optimal low-temperature crack resistance, it is recommended to optimize the material composition of recycled asphalt mixture and control the RAP preheating temperature to 110 °C, maintain laboratory mixing duration of at least 150s, set the mixing temperature to at least 160 °C, and follow mixing sequence I.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142870399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental program included: (i) outdoor experimentation using large-scale field concrete slabs, (ii) guarded calorimetric (LGCC) tests of cut-bar concrete specimens, (iii) Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic characterization of PCM in mortar and subgrade soil specimens, and (iv) low-temperature differential scanning calorimetric (LT-DSC) tests to assess and quantify the amount of PCM contamination in subgrade soil. Results presented varying degrees of effectiveness after three years of environmental exposure: Micro-encapsulated PCM (MPCM) concrete exhibited considerable success (i.e., ~ 50%) in snow melting while PCM infused in lightweight aggregates (PCM-LWA) concrete failed to provide substantial snow-melting; moreover, both PCM-LWA and MPCM slabs showed diminished resistance to freeze–thaw (F-T) cycles compared to the first-year winter cycle data. Factors contributing to efficiency loss are found to be shell degradation of microcapsules, potential leaching of PCM into subgrade soil (i.e., between 0.2 to 0.3% wt. concentration), and effects of warm temperatures influencing the degree of evaporation, as evidenced with LGCC, FTIR and LT-DSC results.

The key variables include: the type of fiber hybridization (hybrid of either hooked end steel fiber (HESF) and straight steel fiber (SSF) only or with jute fiber (JF) as well), and temperature applied on the specimens (room temperature, 200 °C, 400 °C and 600 °C).

Scanning electron microscope micrographs were used to evaluate the microstructure of UHP-FRC matrix reinforced with different types of fiber and the morphological alteration in the surface of JF under high temperatures. The tests results indicate that the residual direct shear stress decreased significantly after exposure to high temperatures. Moreover, thermal spalling occurred for specimens subjected to 600 °C and reinforced with hybrid of HESF and SSF only. While, using hybrid of HESF, SSF and JF was an effective method to prevent the thermal spalling under 600 °C and enhance the residual direct shear stress of UHP-FRC.

The Durability Index (DI) approach was developed in South Africa to address this concern and enhance the durability performance of reinforced concrete structures. This approach relies on durability index tests, which are associated with transport mechanisms linked to specific deterioration processes. The carbonation of concrete is primarily influenced by the microstructure and transport characteristics of the concrete. Environmental exposure conditions also influence the rate of carbonation. The focus of the research reported here was to develop a carbonation model that could predict the rate of carbonation of concrete exposed to, or sheltered from, rain, with the permeability coefficient (<i>k</i>) from the Oxygen Permeability Index (OPI) test (DI test) as the key unifying variable. The model development was based on natural carbonation data and the drying profiles (experimentally measured) of 48 different concretes. Concrete microstructure was varied by varying the water-to-cement ratio, curing conditions, and by using SCMs. The resulting carbonation model was able to predict the rate of carbonation of concrete, allowing for different exposure conditions. A unique feature of this model is its use of a single material property, the '<i>k</i>' value, to effectively address both CO<sub>2</sub> diffusion and the drying process within concrete. The model displayed sensitivity towards the influence of variation in CO<sub>2</sub> concentration, concrete microstructure, and the environmental exposure conditions, making this a simplified, effective and practical concrete carbonation prediction model.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-024-02546-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142826351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
