Study on compressive strength of self compacting mortar cubes under normal & electric oven curing methods

摘要: In the majority of civil engineering applications, basic building blocks were masonry units. Those units developed as a monolithic structure by plastering process with help binding agents namely mud, lime, cement and their combinations. recent advancements, mortar study plays an important role in crack repairs, structural rehabilitation, retrofitting, pointing operations. The rheology includes flowable, passing filling properties which analogous behaviour self compacting concrete. (SC) cubes, was replaced mineral admixtures silica fume (SF) from 5% to 20% (with increment 5%), metakaolin (MK) 10% 30% 10%) ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) 25% 75% 25%). ratio between fine aggregate kept constant 1: 2 for all normal mixes. accelerated curing electric oven differential temperature 128°C period 4 hours adopted. It found that compressive strength obtained method higher cubes than cube. replacement 15% SF, MK 25%GGBS under both conditions.
