Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Structural Engineering Date 2016-12-31 Abstract An experimental study of the influence of autogeneous healing on chloride ingress in cracked concrete is presented. In the study, two concrete mixtures (a Portland cement mix and a blast furnace slag mix), two healing regimes (submerged and fog room regime), two cracking ages (14 and 28 days), and multiple crack widths are used as parameters. An adapted Rapid Chloride Migration testing procedure is used after the healing period to assess the effectiveness of healing. It was found that small bending-type (i.e. tapered) cracks can heal fully, and larger cracks partially under tested conditions. The obtained results provide a good starting point for further study of the influence of autogeneous or self-healing on concrete durability Subject concretecrackingautogeneous healingdurabilitymarine environment To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:48997b72-4d2b-4b45-8919-a150bb1486df Publisher Heron ISSN 0046-7316 Source Heron, 61(1)2016 Part of collection Institutional Repository Document type journal article Rights (c) 2016 The Authors and Heron Files PDF 329822.pdf 666.61 KB Close viewer /islandora/object/uuid:48997b72-4d2b-4b45-8919-a150bb1486df/datastream/OBJ/view
