Abstract EN
The chloride diffusion coefficient is considered to be a key factor for evaluating the service life of ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) blended concrete.
The chloride diffusion coefficient relates to both the concrete mixing proportions and curing ages.
Due to the continuous hydration of the binders, the capillary porosity of the concrete decreases and the chloride diffusion coefficient also decreases over time.
To date, the dependence of chloride diffusivity on the binder hydration and curing ages of slag-blended concrete has not been considered in detail.
To fill this gap, this study presents a numerical procedure to predict time-dependent chloride diffusion coefficients for slag-blended concrete.
First, by using a blended cement hydration model, the degree of the binder reaction for hardening concrete can be calculated.
The effects of the water to binder ratios and slag replacement ratios on the degree of the binder reaction are considered.
Second, by using the degree of the binder reaction, the capillary porosity of the binder paste at different curing ages can be determined.
Third, by using the capillary porosity and aggregate volume, the chloride diffusion coefficients of concrete can be calculated.
The proposed numerical procedure has been verified using the experimental results of concrete with different water to binder ratios, slag replacement ratios, and curing ages.
