The objective of this research is to determine the different types of strength (compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural) developed in concrete produced using different types of additives, such that: silica fume, crushed glass, and crushed nucleate). 3. Experimental investigation: 3-1 Materials used:
Concrete admixture is anything that is added to concrete in addition to the aggregate, water, and cement. 1. Water Reducing Admixtures. 2. Retarding Admixtures. 3. Accelerating Admixtures. 4. Air …
The compressive strengths of all different concrete mixtures were initially assessed and the pull-out tests on a single steel rebar embedded in concrete were performed in three different states of concrete (uncracked, cracked and healed). ... Performance of crystalline forming additive materials in concrete. Construction and …
Different categories of additives have been added to tailor the rheology and fresh behaviors of OPC-based sustainable concrete. Panda et al. 44 studied the effect of nanoclay on the rheology of cementitious materials with 70% FA, and they found that nanoclay up to 0.5% significantly increased both static yield stress and viscosity.
Producers use admixtures primarily to reduce the cost of concrete construction; to modify the properties of hardened concrete; to ensure the quality of concrete during mixing, …
The mixture combinations adopted for testing were: Control/Untreated Sample, Lime 3% and Cement 1.125%, Lime 6% and Cement 2.25%, Lime 9% and Cement 3.375% replacement. The results showed interesting features, as the lime and cement utilized in combination showed a significant improvement in the values of the CBR (%) in …
Bituminous Concrete (BC) mix prepared using binder with cement (2%) and Zycotherm a nanotech additive with different percentages (0%, 0.075 %, 0.1%, 0.125%) by weight of bitumen are used. The mix ...
It was found that by adding 10% of mineral additives into concrete mix the density of hardened concrete increased 0.99% compared to the control specimens, ultrasonic pulse velocity after 7 and 28 days of curing increased 2.6% ir 4.1% respectively. 3. It was found that natural zeolite added to. Dzigita Nagrockiene.
Derived from burning coal, fly ash is a valuable additive that makes concrete stronger, more durable and easier to work with. Fly ash aids the formation of cementitious compounds to enhance the strength, impermeability and durability of concrete. Two main classes of fly ash are used in concrete, Class F, and Class C.
Water-reducing admixtures are chemical products that when added to concrete can create a desired slump at a lower water-cement ratio than what is normally designed. Water-reducing admixtures are used to obtain specific concrete strength using lower cement content. Lower … See more
TYPES OF ADDITIVES FOR PREFABRICATED CONCRETE. Accelerating, retarding, water-repellent, antibacterial, or even with coloring properties, the additives serve, above all, to optimize different …
Admixtures are additions to a concrete mix that can help control the set time and other aspects of fresh concrete. Common admixtures include accelerating admixtures, …
The compressive strengths of all different concrete mixtures were initially assessed and the pull-out tests on a single steel rebar embedded in concrete were performed in three different states of concrete (uncracked, cracked and healed). ...

Additives, or admixtures should on the whole only be used when a given situation requires them but there are some that can be used to enhance a general concrete mix. For a full rundown on the different types of concrete additives and admixtures and how they should be used, read on below. Using Admixtures and Additives in Concrete and Mortar Mixes
Meanwhile, a small amount of quicklime (1.5–2.5% wt. of cement) in the concrete can reduce shrinkage up to 21.5%. Both additives, depending on the amount applied, rapidly reduce the shrinkage of the concrete, and when combined, can show even better results and reduce shrinkage by as much as 40.0%.
Digital concrete fabrication including additive manufacturing of concrete (AMoC) has attracted the attention of academia and industry in recent years, due to its advantages of less labor requirements, and absence of formwork (Buswell et al., 2018).The process, first pioneered by Berokh Khoshnevis and branded initially as 'Contour Crafting', …
