RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Durability of reinforced concrete with additions of natual pozzolans of volcanic origin A1 Souto Suárez, Roberto A1 Santana, Juan José A1 Rodríguez Brito, Natalia A1 Blanco-Peñalver, Concepción A1 Mena, Vicente A2 Química A2 Grupo de Electroquímica y Corrosión Departamento de Química Instituto de Materiales y Nanotecnología AB In this work, the properties of concrete modified with dosages of natural pozzolans(NP) in substitution of cement or superfine aggregates were evaluated. Proportions of 20/80 pozzolan/cement or pozzolan/superfine aggregates were selected for the additions of quarry and tuffpozzolans. Pozzolanic activity, durability, compressive strength, characteristic resistance, settlingconsistency, density, electrical resistivity, depth of water penetration, accessible porosity, and carbonation and chloride penetration were determined for the resulting concrete mixtures, and they weresubsequently compared to the values obtained for the reference concrete batches without additions.The results of the cementitious mixtures supplemented with tuff (PZT) and quarry (PZQ) pozzolans,expressed in mmol/L, are consistent with the pozzolanism test, with [Ca(OH)2]/[OH−] ratios at7 days are 6.03/60.19 for PZQ and 1.78/92.78 PZT. In addition to the pozzolanic activity at thesedosages, the characteristic resistance and durability parameters required by EHE-08 were verified.Particular attention was given to the determination of the diffusion of chloride ions, introducing aninstrumental modification of the accelerated integral method. The modification provides values ofdiffusion coefficients similar to those obtained by the other methods with the advantage of greaterstability and quality of the measurement.
