BS 8110 Requirements on Durability – Are They Adequate? Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 43 What is “Concrete Durability”? ACI Manual – “The ability of a structure or its components to maintain serviceability in a given environment over a specified time” Browne (1986) – “Ability of the concrete in preventing steel corrosion. The attack process can be regarded as a battle between the environment and the concrete cover which acts as the defense system for steel. The enemies range from chlorides, moisture, oxygen…” Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 44 22 The “Cretes” of Concrete Structural Element Surface Skincrete Covercrete (Vital zone for durability) Heartcrete (Vital zone for strength and structural capacity) 45 Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching What is “Concrete Durability”? External Surface Covercrete (Vital zone for durability. It protects steel against corrosion) Heartcrete (Vital zone for strength and contributes to overall structural capacity) 46 Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 23 Covercrete for Durability (cover thickness, cement content, cement type, w/c, water content, curing regime, sorptivity,, Dc, sorptivity RCPT) Heartcrete for Structural Capacity (conc. grade, fcu) Typical CrossCross-Section of Reinforced Concrete 47 Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching Column A Column B Grade 30 concrete Grade 20 concrete Grade 30 concrete Grade 20 concrete Which is more durable ? Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 48 24 The 2Qs for Durability 1. QUANTITY of cover * Is the Code’s provision adequate? * What is the achievement of the specified cover at site? 2. QUALITY of cover * Is curing and compaction adequate? * Is the concrete mix acceptable? Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 49 Factors Affecting Durability 1. Mix proportions – binder type, binder content, w/c ratio, water content, sandsandaggregate ratio 2. Curing and compaction 3. Chemical admixture 4. Mineral admixture Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 50 25 Why Curing of Concrete? “Curing is the process of controlling the rate and extent of moisture loss from concrete during cement hydration.” Curing shall be carried out immediately after concrete has been placed in position, thus, providing time for the hydration of the cement to take place. Since the hydration of cement does take time – days, and even weeks rather than hours, curing shall be undertaken for a reasonable period of time if the concrete is to achieve its POTENTIAL STRENGTH and DURABILITY. DURABILITY. Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 51 Methods of Curing Concrete 1. Wet or moist curing – preventing moisture loss by continuously wetting the exposed concrete surface eg eg.. Wet burlaps, fogging, waterwater-ponding, plastic sheets, etc. 2. Curing compounds – are liquids usually sprayed directly onto concrete surfaces which then dry to form an impermeable membrane that retards the loss of moisture from concrete. 3. Internal curing admixtures – are admixtures incorporated into fresh concrete to inhibit moisture loss. These are relatively new products and care should be taken to use them.

Comparative efficiency of curing compounds (Cement Concrete & Aggregate Australia) 57 Effect of curing period on permeability of cement paste (Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia) 58 29 Why Compaction of Concrete? “Compaction is the process which expels entrapped air from freshly placed concrete and packs the aggregate particles together so as to increase the density of concrete.” Proper compaction increases concrete strength, improves impermeability and durability of concrete. Copyright © 2011 Dr. Lim Char Ching 59 Compaction of concrete is a 2-stage process. Firstly, aggregates are set in motion and slump to fill the form. Secondly, entrapped air is expelled (Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia) 60 30 Typical Loss of Strength in Concrete Through Incomplete Compaction (Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia) 61 Diameter of Head (mm) 20 – 40 30 – 65 50 – 90 Radius of Action, e (mm) 75 – 150 125 – 250 175 – 350 (Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia) 62 31 Important Information Required from Designer on Concrete Durability 1.
