THEORETICAL ASPECTS, EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS AND EFFICIENCY IN USAGE OF HIGH-STRENGTH CONCRETE FOR BRIDGE STRUCTURES by G. D. Liakhevich, S. A. Zvonnik, A. G. Liakhevich, Ayub Basim Abdulhussein Alazzawi

“…The paper shows a positive impact of highly dispersed additives on structure and physico-mechanical properties of cement compositions, namely: reduction of total porosity of a cement stone in concrete while increasing volumetric concentration and dispersion of a filler; binding of calcium hydroxide with the help of amorphised micro-silica; increased activity of mineral additives during their thin shredding; acceleration of the initial stage of chemical hardening of cement compositions with highly dispersed particle additives that serve as centers of crystallization; “binder-additive” cluster formation due to high surface energy of highly dispersed additive particles; hardening of surface area between a cement stone and aggregates in concrete; high-strength concretes are gaining strength much faster than conventional concretes.Technology of preparation and composition of high-strength concrete using highly dispersed mineral additives and super-plasticizer has been developed in the paper. …”
