Repair concrete structures with high-early-strength engineered cementitious composites (HES-ECC): Material design and interfacial behavior

Aimed at realizing the effective strengthening and durable repair of concrete structures, particularly in emergencies like traffic interruption triggered by broken roads and damaged bridges, nine groups of specimens were designed and tested in this paper to develop the high-early-strength Engineered Cementitious Composites (HES-ECC) featured...

Research on Design and Performance of Self-Compacting Cement Emulsified Bitumen Mixture (CEBM)

To meet the needs of the road industry for maintenance operations, a new cement emulsified bitumen mixture (CEBM) with early-strength, self-compacting, and room-temperature construction characteristics was designed. The strength formation mechanism of CEBM was revealed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the surface free energy (SFE...

Effect of early strength agent on cement slurry containing retarder

Retarders have an important regulation effect on the hydration speed and setting time of cement. However, retarders are not conducive to the early strength development of concrete, so use early strength agents to improve their early performance. In this paper, the effects of different amounts of triethanolamine (TEA) and citric acid (CA) on the...
