Cement-based materials (CBM) are the foremost construction materials worldwide. Therefore, there are widely accepted standards for their structural applications. However, for service life designs, current approaches largely depend on CBM strength class and restrictions on CBM constituents.
Cement based materials (CBM) for construction are produced by mixing water, cement and other raw materials. During the initial few hours, the material behaves as a solid suspension, but it changes ...
