Percolation is considered to be a critical factor affecting the transport properties of multiphase materials. In the case of concrete, the transport properties are strongly dependent on the interfacial transition zone ...

There have been many experimental measurements of the waterproofing ability and durability of concrete with a crystalline admixture, but some other important properties have not been reliably tested yet. The results of the ...

Creep of concrete is strongly affected by the evolution of pore humidity and temperature, which in turn depend on the environmental conditions and on the size and shape of the concrete member. Current codes of practice ...
