Full textSub-routines were developed for a finite element thermal analysis program "DETECT" to predict the variation of temperatures during hydration. Additional sub-routines, using the maturity concept, predicted the compressive strength, elastic modulus and tensile strength of each element, in the time domain. An experimental study was performed to observe the effect of different curing conditions and early-form stripping on the temperature and strain development in structural concrete members. Comparisons are made between the measured and predicted temperatures in large concrete columns and precast tee beams and slabs.
Sub-routines were developed to enable incremental stress analysis in the time domain to account for the rapidly changing material properties and the influence of creep. Predictions of the risk of cracking were made and compared with observations from experiments on concrete elements during hydration. Parametric analyses were carried out to determine the influence of key thermal properties, time of formwork removal, creep, and concrete strength on the thermal gradients developed and the risk of thermal cracking.

Full textDentro del ámbito de los materiales inteligentes y considerando el hormigón como uno de los principales materiales de la construcción, conseguir dotarle de nuevas funcionalidades le proporcionaría nuevos usos y aplicaciones a las meramente estructurales o de revestimiento habituales. Factor que permitiría evolucionar el material manteniendo su vigencia ante nuevos retos que se plantean en ámbitos de las infraestructuras, como la ciudad inteligente, movilidad, sensorización de estructuras y otras aplicaciones posibles todavía por desarrollar. Con este objetivo marcado e introduciendo factores como la sostenibilidad y una industrialización a medio plazo, esta tesis se centra en la utilización de fibras de carbono recicladas de productos o procesos, adicionadas al hormigón, con el fin de modificar sus propiedades eléctricas y transformarlo de un material aislante a otro con propiedades conductivas. Por ello y basándose en estudios previos, se caracterizan dos matrices de hormigón con marcadas diferencias en lo que refiere al tamaño de sus agregados, que reciben la adición de diferentes tipos de fibra de carbono recicladas en distintos porcentajes. En una primera fase, el estudio se centra en la caracterización de las diferentes propiedades básicas del hormigón, como la capacidad estructural o trabajabilidad en estado fresco, a la que se añade la determinación de las propiedades eléctricas a la vez que se establecen tipologías de ensayo específicos con los que poder evaluar, comparar y analizar el efecto de las diferentes fases presentes en el material en la conductividad eléctrica de todas las combinaciones de dosificaciones propuestas. Posteriormente, focalizándose en las combinaciones de matriz, tipo y cantidad de fibra con mejores propiedades conductivas, se profundiza en la caracterización eléctrica, contrastándola con funcionalidades asociadas como el efecto piezoeléctrico y el efecto Joule, funcionalidades que gobiernan la sensorización del hormigón y autocalentamiento en aplicaciones como el control de deformaciones de estructuras o pavimentos con efecto deshielo respectivamente. Finalmente se aplica el material desarrollado en una prueba piloto a escala real, en la que se testean la funcionalidad de autocalentamiento en un elemento de mobiliario urbano de la empresa ESCOFET 1886 S.A., que ha participado en la realización de esta tesis doctoral en el marco del Programa de Doctorado Industrial de la Generalitat de Catalunya

Full textThe use of waste tire rubber particles in concrete has been studied by several researchers, because it constitute both an attractive alternative for the final disposition of these residues and offers a possibility to modify certain concrete properties that might contribute for a better performance in certain applications that require specific characteristics, such as increased deformation capacity and more ductile behavior than conventional concrete. These characteristics of rubberized concretes might be interesting because they reduce the risk of cracking when concrete is subjected to volumetric changes, as occurs with mass concretes. In this research, it was studied how the introduction of rubber particles would affect the mechanical, viscoelastic and thermal properties of mass concretes, with the aim to check if it is possible to obtain a composite less susceptible to cracking due to thermal effects. The mixtures were analyzed based on the following features: rubber content, granulometry and surface treatment applied to the tire rubber particles. The experimental program was performed in three stages. The first one involved a wide range of mixtures, with varying rubber contents. At this stage, basic tests were carried out in order to identify how effective surface treatments were in generating a good tire rubber/matrix interface as well as how much high tire rubber contents would impact the mechanical properties of the concrete. Samples were selected for microanalysis through scanning electron microscopy to correlate the quality of the rubber/matrix interface with mechanical characteristics. In the second stage, the mixtures that resulted in the best performance in the first stage were further studied. The effects of the addition of tire rubber particles on the properties related to tenacity and permeability of concrete were evaluated. During the third stage, the best two mixtures used in the first and second stages were selected in order to analyze the effect of the addition of rubber particles in the thermal, elastic and viscoelastic properties of concrete, as well as in the thermo mechanical behavior of structures made with this material. Additionally, some samples were subjected to tests for the assessment of features related to the durability of concrete. The results indicated that the best use of tire rubber on concrete, without reducing the mechanical properties, occurs for a 10% content of rubber particles of 1.5mm and 4.8mm, used in partial replacement of the river sand. Higher contents and smaller particles led to greater reductions of the mechanical properties and an increase in the trapped air content. There was no significant difference either in the microstructure or in the properties of the samples containing particles with and without surface treatment. The thermo mechanical analysis indicated that the use of concrete with tire rubber can be an efficient alternative to minimize the risk of cracking due to thermal effects, compared with a conventional concrete. Based on the results obtained until the age of 2 years, the consumption of 29 kg/m3 of tire rubber on concrete did not seem to affect the durability characteristics of the material.

Resumo: A busca por materiais alternativos, de baixa massa específica, que possua redução na transferência de propagação de calor, associado à facilidade de manuseio e aplicação em concretos estruturais e estruturas de vedação, representa grande desafio na formulação e conhecimento do desempenho dos concretos leves. O concreto leve possui tecnologia pouco difundida em nível nacional e surge no cenário atual como um material inovador e alternativo ao concreto convencional. Frente ao exposto, este trabalho estudou concretos leves estruturais elaborados com duas graduações distintas de argila expandida e, com a finalidade de promover à manutenção das propriedades mecânicas, adicionou-se aditivo superplastificante e sílica ativa. Desenvolveu-se cinco traços distintos, que apresentaram reologia adequada, sem apresentar fenômenos de segregação e exsudação. Estudou-se algumas propriedades físicas, como índice e perda de consistência, absorção de água e massa específica do estado fresco e endurecido, os quais apresentaram uma média de 2000 kg/m3, classificando os concretos, de acordo com o ACI 213R-03 (2003), como leves. As principais propriedades mecânicas analisadas foram, resistência à compressão, apresentando, em média, 40 MPa, valor acima do mínimo prescrito pela ABNT NBR 6118:2007, para concretos estruturais, além da resistência à tração e módulo de elasticidade, as quais serviram como fundamentação na qualificação dos concretos leves estruturais, visando às exigências técnicas nacionais e internacionais para sua classificação e uso. Também foram realizados ensaios de condutividade térmica, por meio do método da placa quente protegida ("Hot Plate"), os quais apresentaram bons resultados, mostrando-se adequados no quesito desempenho térmico, de acordo com a revisão bibliográfica, bem como, com a norma nacional de desempenho térmico (ABNT NBR 15220:2005). Foram obtidas informações microestruturais sobre a zona de transição entre os agregados, convencionais e leves, e sua matriz de cimento. Foram realizadas comparações entre a massa específica seca e a resistência à compressão, assim como, comparações entre a massa específica seca e o módulo de elasticidade, sendo que tais resultados comprovam a possibilidade da utilização do concreto leve em elementos estruturais. Sugere-se, então, utilizar este concreto em painéis de vedação, pois associa-se a baixa massa específica, o conforto térmico e a resistência mecânica
Abstract: The search for alternative materials, low density, having reduced transfer of heat propagation, combined with ease of handling and application in structural concrete and seal structures, constituting a major challenge in the design and understanding of the performance of lightweight concrete. The lightweight concrete technology has little known at the national level and in the current scenario emerges as an innovative and alternative material to conventional concrete. Based on these, this paper studied structural lightweight concrete made with two different grades of expanded clay, and with the purpose of promoting the maintenance of the mechanical properties was added superplasticizer and silica fume. Developed five distinct traits, which showed adequate rheology, without presenting phenomena of segregation and oozing. We studied some physical properties, such as loss of consistency index, water absorption and density of fresh and hardened, which had an average 2000 kg/m3, classifying the concrete according to ACI 213R-03 (2003), as light. The main mechanical properties were analyzed, compressive strength, with an average of 40 MPa, above the minimum prescribed by ABNT NBR 6118:2007, structural concrete, beyond the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity, which served as the basis the qualification of structural lightweight concrete, aimed at national and international technical requirements for classification and use. Thermal conductivity tests were also carried out by means of the hot plate protected ("Hot Plate") method, which showed excellent results, proving to be adequate thermal performance in the category, according to the literature review, as well as with the national standard for thermal performance (ABNT NBR 15220:2005). Microstructural information on the transition zone between aggregates, conventional and light, and its cement matrix were obtained. Comparisons between dry density and compressive strength as well as comparisons between the dry density and modulus of elasticity were performed, and these results show the possibility of using lightweight concrete in structural elements. Then it is suggested to use this concrete fence panels, as is associated with low density, thermal comfort and strength

Full textThis thesis focuses on the use of infrared thermography as a tool for non destructive testing ofbuildings. Mainly, the application is on civil engineering projects.The first part includes identifying the parameters that can affect this in situ technique. Thisparticularly deals with the infrared thermography capacity to detect intrinsic property variations, anddelamination detection. Combination of experiments on concrete slabs and numerical simulationsare used. In a first step, a study on the capacity of thermography to detect porosity and watercontent variation was conducted. In a second step a study on the thresholds for detectingdelaminations based on exposure conditions is carried out. As an outcome, the threshold that hasbeen detected corresponds to a ratio of 2 between the lateral extension of the defect and its depthto direct sunlight; while a ratio of 3,3 if it is exposed to air temperature variations. This studysuggests that a time monitoring combined with the study of the evolution of temporal temperaturegradients can improve the detection limits. Finally, an original study showed the predominance ofthe influence of bridging on the depth of delamination.The second part tackles the works carried out during the ANR project SENSO. Results fromdifferent non destructive tools were coupled for the purpose of improving diagnosis in the assetmanagement

Усовершенствован алгоритм определения функции ползучести при учете влияния изменения температуры окружающей среды. Полученные уравнения и разработана методика расчета плит перекрытия при воздействии температурных факторов, и с учетом вязкоупругопластичности бетона. Получила дальнейшее развитие математическая модель, позволяющая учесть изменение температуры окружающей среды и ее влияние на развитие нелинейных деформаций, с учетом снижения прочностных и деформационных характеристик материала. Предложенную методику можно использовать при проектировании зданий и сооружений, в которых могут проявляться деформации ползучести. Выполнены многочисленные эксперименты позволяют определить опасные факторы, характеризующие возможную смену условий эксплуатации здания (увеличение пластических деформаций или высокотемпературные воздействия и т.д.). Приведенные алгоритмы расчета конструкции могут быть использованы при повторном пересчете зданий и сооружений, подвергшихся огневому воздействию. Результаты исследования можно использовать при усовершенствовании стандартов в рамках обеспечения конструктивной безопасности зданий и сооружений в случае воздействия высоких или повышенных температур.
The consideration of rheological properties of concrete is one of the most important stages in ensuring the long-term and safe operation of buildings and structures. Rheological properties include shrinkage, swelling, creep and relaxation. Within the dissertation, the phenomenon of creep is investigated. Creep is temperate deformation of the body under the action of constant load. The property of creep is characterized for a lot of materials. Real buildings are often subjected to variable loads that cause instant elastic and plastic deformation, as well as creep. In order to study the motion of the material in creep, ordinary devices of a continuous medium mechanical are used. That is, they are introduced the tensor of voltage, deformation and rapid deformation. In the general case, the displacement of the points of the body may be significant in comparison with its original dimensions. In this case, its deformation must be described by means of the final deformation tensor, and at the deformed body surface must also be given by the corresponding boundary conditions. An important property of concrete is that when the temperature of the surrounding environment increases, the modulus of elasticity of the material decreases. It’s possible to take into account the decrease in the elasticity modulus by using the lowering coefficients. But all construction documents say that full calculation and analysis of structures should be done not only with taking into account the lowering coefficients, but also the coefficients that will take into account the effect of creep, depending on the temperature change. In the work, the calculation methodology for reinforced concrete structures is represented. The methodology is developed on the basis of a double power law, taking into account the influence of high temperatures and the calculation on fire resistance, as well as taking into account the influence of physical nonlinearity and rheological properties of concrete.

Full textThe building sector has a great potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. Improvements to the building envelope and Innovations in building materials have the potential to achieve sustainability within the built environment. This PhD thesis focuses on the development of multifunctional façade elements in order to optimize the building energy consumption while maintaining an optimal indoor human thermal comfort. The proposed solution consist of using passive storage by means of phase change materials associated with alternative construction materials such as textile reinforced concrete (TRC). The aim of the study is to characterize mechanical and thermal properties of TRC composites and to evaluate the effect of PCMs on indoor thermal comfort. To meet these objectives, experimental devices have been set up for the characterization (at the component scale and in situ) of the mechanical and thermal behaviour of different TRC panels. In parallel, we have developed a numerical model for the prediction of wall temperature profiles. Finally, a multi-objective optimization of the façade elements is carried out using genetic algorithms to determine the better combinations able to combine the energy performance with the mechanical performance

Full textThe material used in civil engineering applications must be re-evaluated because of their physicochemical ageing which can generate significant damages and hence put the stability of civil engineering structures in danger.The replacement of the hydraulic concrete by composite materials as the polymer concrete which offer higher properties compared to conventional construction materials seems to be very interesting. At the present time, the major restrain for the development of polymer concrete are on one hand the cost of the polymer whose ratio varies according to the industrial applications between 5% and 25%, and on the other hand their behaviour when exposed to high temperatures or fire since the resin acting as binder in these polymer concretes are organic substances which are more sensitive to heat than the inorganic matters as cement.The aim of this study was to help the development of polymer concrete by optimizing the formulation and improving their behaviour when exposed the high temperatures by incorporating additions while keeping acceptable mechanical performances.The optimisation of the formulation is done in two steps; the first step consists of optimising the aggregates content (Natural River sands 0/4 mm and crushed gravels 4/10 mm). Experimental results are compared to those given by means Compressible Packing Model. The second step consists of optimizing the amount of polymer (6%, 9%, 13% et 16%) based on mechanical and physical tests.The second aim of this work was fulfilled by the incorporation of two flame retardants belonging to metal hydroxide and phosphorous components types. Physical, thermal and mechanical properties of concretes with or without flame retardant, before and after heating-cooling cycle from ambient temperature to exposure temperature of 100°C, 150°C, 200°C, 225°C et 250 °C with a rate of 0.5°C/min, are evaluated by common characterisation tests besides chemical and thermal ones. This study has leading to obtaining an optimum polymer concrete and evaluates the effect of flame retardant particularly on the thermal and mechanical properties.Keywords: polymer concrete, optimization, high temperatures, flame retardant, mechanical properties, physical properties, thermal properties

Full textThe origins of the variability of hemp concrete material properties are numerous. They include among others those related to the properties of its constituents and material itself as well as the methods used for their characterizations. This thesis is interested in the study of the variability of hemp concrete properties taking into account these different parameters and in particular the type of hemp particles used. The litterature review corried out allowed to present the hemp concrete material, the properties of its constituents, their methods of characterization and also the extend of properties variability and sensitivity due to various parameters. Furthermore, it allowed to identify the parameters to be considered in the context of this thesis. Therefore, this thesis is devided into four chapters in addition to the literature review. In the second chapter, a multi-criteria study on the properties of hemp particles is presented. After an experimental study of characterization for 13 types of hemp particles, a two level analysis of result is performed. It takes into account the density, water absorption capacity and particle size distributions. First, the results of the single characteristic study are presented; it is about a comparison of a given characterstic for all hemp particles at the same time. Secondly, the results of the multi-criteria study are presented. In this last case, the analysis is corried out by taking into account all hemp particles and characteristics, both at the same time. The outcome of this study allowed to classify hemp particles into three groups from which, low, medium and high mechanical peformances are expected, respectively. Chapter 3 is a preliminary study taking into account various parameters as sources of variability for hemp concrete properties, such as the testing laboratory (equipments), the batch, the specimen size and hemp particles type. The obtained results highlight the need for further investigations about the impact of hemp particles type. Moreover, the considerable dispersion in the results of Young’s modulus is likely associated with its calculation method. It then becomes important to deepen the study of its impact on the values of Young’s modulus obtained. The chapter 4 aims to answer the problem found on the method for calculating the Young’s modulus. Various methods from literature are used to analyse the stress-strain curves from samples manufactured under the same conditions. The variability observed in results with respect to used method allowed to highlight their impact and to provide the floating method as the most pertinent since it presents less variability. In addition, a model to describe the mechanical behavior law of hemp concrete is proposed. It allows to determine the enveloppe curve which corresponds to experimental curve from the monotonic loading. It can also allow to reproduce the experimental curve from a cyclic loading. In the last chapter, based on the results of chapter 2, nine types of hemp particles were selected for the preparation and manufacturing of specimens of the study. Under the same conditions (manufacturing and test), it has been demonstrated experimentally the impact of hemp particles on mechanical properties with a factor 10 between low and high values from obtained results. The mechanical response characterized by low (<5%), medium (>5% and <8%) and high (> 8% and <20%) level of deformation have been highlighted. These variabilities remain, however less marked for thermal conductivity and density of hemp concrete material. This study highlights the interest of a comprehensive study on the interaction binder/hemp particles for a better understanding of the impact of hemp particles on hemp concrete

Full textIn case of severe accident, confinement chambers are submitted to thermodynamic variations of their internal environment. Pressures can increase up to 5 bars, temperature reaches 140 °C and relative humidity attains saturation. Beyond regulatory calculations, the complexity of the solicitation needs a good knowledge of the thermo-mechanical behaviour of concrete under the imposed conditions of temperature and relative humidity. This, in turns allows to develop numerical simulations as realistic as possible. The present study investigates the evolution of the mechanical and thermal characteristics of concrete. These properties are essential to develop numerical computations under the levels of pressure, temperature and relative humidity imposed during a severe accident. Mechanical and thermal tests are carried out under controlled hydro-thermal conditions. Temperature (T) is fixed at five target values: 30, 90, 110, 140 and 160 °C. Five levels of degree of saturation (Sw) range from 36 % to 100 %. The different target values of degree of saturation are attained by controlling relative humidity in the surrounding environment of the specimens during curing. DCT (Disk-shape Compact tension) tests was chosen to determine the dependence of the fracture energy, elastic modulus and traction resistance on temperature and degree of saturation of concrete because of its compact shape that is more suitable for testing under pressure (temperature above 100°C). Thermal properties are determined by means of the Transient Plane Source (TPS) method. This technique allows to determine thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and hence to deduct specific heat. The dependence of the permeability to liquid nitrogen on temperature up to 90 °C and on the degree of saturation was also analysed. After determining thermal and mechanical properties of concrete, numerical simulations have been developed in order to pass from laboratory scale to the structure scale. A coupled hydro-mechanical model and a damage model are proposed

Concrete will crack when the thermal stress exceeds tbe tensile strength of the concrete, Decisions on the type of concrete mix, cooling facilities and construction techniques to be used in the erection of a concrete structure can only be made if the thermal behaviour and strength of the concrete can be predicted during hydration. This thesis describes the development of a low cost, computer controlled, adiabatic calorimeter to determine tlte heat of hydration and a probe to determine the thermal conductivity or concrere samples. The main thrust of this thesis is the development of the thermal conductivity probe which, for the first time, can measure the thermal conductivity of concrete through all stages of hydration. A thermal model was also developed to verify the results, and the use of the calorimeter for temperature matched curing tests is also discussed. Results, obtained from the test procedures described, will provide far more accurate predictions of the temperatures in concrete structures than was possible in the past.

If the light-weight concrete is used in building a high rise ,it can reduce building''sweight because of its weight is lighter than the normal-weight concrete,and reduce the process of earthquake corresponding.On the other side,its fire proof properties are better than the normal-weight concrete.In these years,fire damage made great losses of life and money,if we want to employ the light-weight concrete to building structure, it is necessary to research its thermal properties in the process of a fire. The research has different aggregates of four specific gravity in making concrete,heated with ASTM E119 standard fire temperature-time relation to 1052 ℃,measure their surplus strength,weight,dynamic elastic modulus, ultrasonic velocity after cooling,temperature-time relation in concrete interior during heating,and concrete''s extreme thermal expansion strain, thermal expansion cofficient. With the result that we can see the thermal properties of the light-weight concrete after a fire are better than the normal-weight concrete,so if a construction is built in the light-weight concrete,it can reduce fire damage effectively.

ABSTRACT The center temperature of a mass concrete may be high due to hydration. If the heat conduction of concrete can be increased such that the heat can be dissipated from center to the environment would be a good idea. In addition, if the heat can be absorbed and transferred to other places in a fire, the temperature difference of the concrete may be reduced and the cracks may be minimized. In our daily life, the heat from Sun can be used captured easier for further use and a more sustainable structure can be achieved. This research used a more heat-conducting material to replace conventional fine aggregates for this purpose. Materials b, c, d, g, and w were used as fine aggregates to study the effects on the compressive strength, expansion under heat, heat conduction, specific heat, and electrical resistance. The test results showed the following: 1. The addition of material b and w increases the compressive strength by 20%. 2. The addition of material d decreases the compressive strength by 14%. 3. The specific heat of the specimen with material d was reduced by 15%. 4. The expansion coefficient under heat is increased by 8% for specimens with materials b and w. 5. The heat conduction coefficient of specimens with materials c, d and g increases 80%. Keywords: concrete, expansion, heat conduction, specific heat, electrical resistance.

This research focused on the thermal properties of concrete. If concrete can have a good thermal conductivity, the thermal stress of mass concrete due to temperature difference can be reduced. Under sunlight, if the heat can be retrieved to be used as alternative energy for lighting, heating, etc, it will be helpful for carbon dioxide reduction and leads to a green building and environment. This research used materials with higher thermal conducting properties to replace conventional aggregate. These materials are designated as coarse aggregates A, B, and C, and a, b, c, d for fine aggregates. The compressive strengths, thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, specific heat, and electrical resistance were studied.

Porous asphalt concrete (PAC) is one alternative solution to the problem of stormwater drainage from parking and other low traffic density areas. The overall benefits of porous asphalt concrete may include both environmental and safety benefits including improved stormwater management, improved skid resistance, reduction of spray to drivers and pedestrians, reduction in light reflection and headlight glare, as well as a potential for noise reduction. However, there are disadvantages of this pavement type such as has lower service life than dense mixes. Steel slag is the material generated from purifying metal, their casting and alloying. It is steel slag that can be used as an aggregate substitution. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance and thermal properties of porous asphalt concrete containing steel slag. Two types of steel slag were used to subtitute coarse aggregate, including Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF) and Baoshan Slag Short Flow (BSSF). Three different percentages of steel slag, namely 0%, 30%, and 50%, were mixed. Two main aspects are investigated in this study. One is mixture performance, including resilient modulus, rutting potential, skid resistance, and moisture susceptibility test. The other is thermal properties characteristic, including thermal conductivity, thermal heat capacity, and thermal diffusivity. Statistical were utilized to determine which treatment has the best performance result. The test results show that steel slag has higher specific gravity, high absorption, but lower L.A. abrasion, and soundness compared with natural aggregate. PAC containing steel slag may enhance the resilient modulus, skid resistance, rutting potential, and moisture susceptibility. However the application of high percentage of steel slag may decrease the performance of PAC, such as decrease skid resistance, rutting potential, and moisture susceptibility. The statistical analysis results show that PAC containing 30% of BOF slag has the best performance results, however this kind of pavement had the highest thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity compared with others. The conclusions indicate that both BOF and BSSF slag are suitable to used as coarse aggregate substitution in PAC.

In the condition of greenhouse effect and outdoor temperature raised, the heat which enters into the indoor increases. The air conditioning energy consumption will increase, causing the energy shortage. In the study, the phase change materials have the latent heat, which can absorb large amounts of heat. The research is about investigating the characteristics of the phase change wallboard in Taipei weather conditions and the behavior of the indoor ambient temperature performance. There are three parts of experimental and simulation analysis. The first part is the heat conduction properties of the phase change concrete, including the thermal diffusivity, heat capacity and the unit weight in the formula for calculating thermal conductivity. When the amount of phase change materials increased, the concrete is lighter. When the amount of phase change materials increased, the heat capacity is higher. There is a peak on the standard phase transition temperature. Due to the phase change materials resist heat (cold) source from advancing, which concrete adds the phase change materials, the thermal diffusivity will decrease. The final, thermal conductivity in the non-phase change temperature section is lower, when the amount of phase change materials increased. In the phase change temperature section, the thermal conductivity coefficient curves overlap. Addition of 10%, 20% and 30% thermal conductivity peaks are 1.73 W/m∙K, 1.61 W/m∙K and 1.67 W/m∙K, which are lower than the thermal conductivity (2.0 W/m∙K) of the concrete without adding the phase change materials. The second part is hot box tests. Our group uses the hot box instrument in NTU civil engineering materials laboratory, sets Taipei 2012 summer temperatures, winter temperatures and design cycle temperature as schedule of testing. In summer test, when the amount of phase change materials increased, the indoor high temperature is lower and high-temperature peak time of occurrence delays. In winter test, found that addition of the phase change materials causes the rising of low temperature. The cycle test of 20℃~40℃, 12 hours a cycle, adding phase change materials, the temperature can be controlled in a small temperature range. The the temperature differences of addition of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% are 9.6℃, 7.4℃, 5.7℃, 5.1℃, but the delay time are shorter than the summer test results. The third part is ABAQUS simulation analysis for the cycle test. Comparing the results for the phase transition temperature of the material added control behavior, software simulations have accurate results. Temperature peak delay phenomenon in the software simulation can also be seen.

This research used the Hot Wire Method by embedding a thermal needle probe to a hole of concrete cylinder to study the effects of steam curing on the thermal properties and engineering properties of self-compacting concrete with three kinds of slag additions condition (0%, 20%, and 40%). Subsequently, the effects of various slag additions on the thermal conductivity of concrete together with three kinds of curing condition (normal curing, steam curing 50℃, steam curing 70℃) were investigated. Finally, the effects of various curing conditions and various compositions on the engineering properties and thermal conducting behavior at setting stage of self-compacting concrete were studied. Experimental results show that (1) After 28 days, for sets of 0%, 20%, 40% slag addition, thermal conductivity decreases by steam curing; (2) For concrete specimens at all ages, under normal curing condition, the set of 20% slag addition has the maximum value of thermal conductivity. Under steam curing 50℃ condition, the set of 40% slag addition has the maximum value of thermal conductivity. After 28 days, under steam curing 70℃ condition, the value of thermal conductivity of the set of 20% slag addition is similar to the set of 40% slag addition; (3) The coefficient of thermal conductivity increases by 59.04%(normal curing), decreases by 7.39%( steam curing 50℃), and decreases by 40.29%(steam curing 70℃) for the set of 20% slag addition on the 56-day age. The coefficient of thermal conductivity increases by 33.48 %( normal curing), increases by 55.86 %( steam curing 50℃), decreases by 41.83 %( steam curing 70℃) for the set of 40% slag addition on the 56-day age; (4) Under the normal curing, concrete cylinder with 40% slag addition has the maximum compressive strength. Under the steam curing, concrete cylinder with 20% slag addition has the maximum compressive strength. Results show that under normal curing, the higher the slag addition is, the higher its long-term compressive strength will be. Under steam curing, the set of 20% slag addition obtains the best self-curing capability.

The research objective was to assess the mechanical properties, shrinkage, thermal expansion and conductivity, and chloride penetration of concrete containing reclaimed asphalt pavement materials. Rich and lean concrete mixtures were blended by water to cementitious materials (w/c) ratio of 0.5 and the RAP materials were replacing both coarse and fine aggregates by 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100-%. The concrete cylinders and specimens were cast and cured in the water tank for 7, 28, 56, and 90 days. The test results demonstrate as follows: the mixing temperatures of all concrete mixtures increased among 24.5 and 26.8, from 20-°C; the unit weight, compressive strength, pulse velocity, and shrinkage decreased, when more percentage of RAP were incorporated; thermal conductivity increased when more percentage of RAP were added. However, thermal conductivity decreased when longer curing time of concrete were given; thermal expansion also increased when more percentage of RAP were blended; lastly, the coulombs or charge pass indicating the chloride penetration increased on 90-day moisture-cured concrete specimens, when more RAP were replaced.

This research used the same water-binder ratio (W/B = 0.6) to study the effects of fly ash or slag on the properties of concrete under steam curing. This study also used a one-dimensional heating test module of 7 × 7 × 55 cm to study the effects of fly ash and slag on the thermal conduction of concrete, and to compare the difference of properties of harden concrete at the locations away from the heating surface. Experimental results show that: (1) The hydration and Pozzolanic reaction speeded up by steam curing, such that the 3-day compressive strength of steam-cured concrete was higher than that of the water cured, and this condition becomes more obvious with more Pozzolanic replacement, especially for fly ash; (2) The surface electrical resistivity of the steam-cured concrete with fly ash was much higher than the water-cured , and had a substantial increase with even higher fly ash replacement; (3) The thermal conducting speed of fresh concrete was obviously higher, which showed that the degree of saturation had a positive correlation with the thermal conductivity rate; (4) After 28 day, the thermal conductivity rate of concrete with the replacement of 30% slag was much lower than the others; the replacement of 30% fly ash (F30) and 15% slag (S15) were the next high, and the normal-weight concrete and mortar were the highest; (5) The difference in the properties of harden concrete at different layers in the one-dimensional heating test were not apparent, due to the fact that, during the earlier stage of the test, the concrete specimens were also subjected to the thermal conduction from the surrounding lateral surfaces.

The inorganic mineral powder coating materials have the functions of reflection and insulation, which can be divided into two types: Cement (UU620) and Geopolymer (UU500). The coated materials have six colors of white, red, blue, green, yellow and gray which are capable of reflecting and blocking part of the radiation heat into the concrete building. The reflectivity and thermal conductivity of inorganic mineral powder materials were measured by spectrometers and heat conduction instrument, respectively; and measurement of adhesion according to ASTM D3359. Notably, the obtained results show that the coating materials have high reflectivity values, excellent thermal conductivity, and the adhesion of different colors is quite good. Through the visible light and infrared radiation concrete plate specimens, the result of turning the light on and off, the upper and lower heat flux, surface and environmental temperature were measured to explore the insulation and cooling effect in different colors. Moreover, it possesses the excellent thermal insulation. Finally, the coated concrete plate has better thermal insulation ability than the uncoated concrete plate in situ test. Through the above-mentioned heat flux experimental data and the formula set by the Green Building Technical Specification, the heat transmission rate of the coated specimen has calculated.
