In this paper, a review of techniques is given so that both, the challenges and opportunities for assessing transport properties of high-performance concrete, are highlighted. A knowledge of performance of structural concrete is required for design a

Design for durability and performance-based standards and specifications for reinforced concrete infrastructure is limited by the lack of rapid, science-based test methods for characterising the deterioration resistance of concrete. In this paper, th

The performance of CEM I, CEM III/A and CEM II/B-V reinforced concrete slabs which have been exposed to a marine environment for 18 years is presented. Performance is assessed in terms of porosity, degree of saturation, chloride concentration and ele

Wet scanning electron microscopy (WetSEM) and electrical impedance measurements have been employed to study the physico-chemical processes during the early hydration of Portland cement. The WetSEM study employed the Quantomix WetSEM capsule, allowing

Railway track is constructed on compacted soil which is, characteristically, unsaturated. The performance of the subgrade, both in the short- and long-term, is dependent on environmental factors, in particular, an increase in subgrade moisture conten

The framework of a practical test method that can be used to provide indirect assessment of the tensile properties of ECC is presented. Particular emphasis is placed on providing the underlying concept, modelling strategy and constitutive relations u

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is used to obtain the electrical properties of fly-ash over the frequency range 100Hz-10 MHz. A range of presentation formalisms are exploited to characterize and assess this material in terms of its unburnt car

The protective qualities of the concrete cover-zone and the condition of the embedded steel (active/passive) surface were studied using reinforced concrete slabs subjected to intermittent wetting/drying. The cementitious binders used within the exper

Estuaries and tidal inlets are often characterised by the presence of both cohesive and non-cohesive sediments. Knowledge of the sedimentation behaviour of sand-mud mixtures is therefore crucial to the understanding and prediction of the time-depende

A rail track system comprises a number of components and, in order to analyse and predict track behaviour, it is essential to understand the function of each component as each will have a major influence on overall track performance. Historically, ra
