Abstract

The effects of curing conditions on the chloride permeability of concrete with various replacements of Portland cement by a flyash and a blastfurnace slag was investigated. In order to relate the porosity and pore size distribution of concretes to their chloride permeability, mercury intrusion porosimetry measurements were also conducted. The results showed that exposure of concretes to a relatively low humidity at early ages increased their chloride permeability. It was also found that the chloride permeability of concrete increased proportionally with increasing volume of pores larger than 0.1 μm in diameter.
