Blast furnace slag (BFS) is used for preparation of common cements, sulfate-resisting and chemical-resisting cements and cement mortars. Using BFS as a concrete or mortar addition results in several advantageous properties such as high resistance to acid attack (sulphuric, nitric acids), low chloride permeability, high durability and low capillary porosity. Because of these properties using BFS in cement composites can decrease the effect of biodegradation induced by various microorganisms. Bio-corrosion is caused...

In recent years ,highway of our country grows vigorously now has become a stimulating domestic demand in the highway construction, and the important factors that promote the rapid development of national economy, it attaches great importance to by governments at all levels, highways extending unceasingly, also provides favourable conditions for the development of road transport. To solve the above problems in practical engineering, we must be to deal with natural foundation, and road in deep soft soil, after proce...

All building materials contain more or less natural radioactivity. The recycling of waste by-products, nowadays, gaining more and more importance, research on that kind of materials is being carried out and such materials are utilized as additives in the production of special mortars in many countries. As radiation of terrestrial origin in buildings does not only originate from the soil, but also from the used building materials, a greater absorbed dose rate can be measured within buildings. EU technical guidance ...
