Influence of degradation of hardened cement paste on fracture behaviour of concrete


Abstract eng:
Fracture behaviour of concrete is studied using two-phase material model. Propagation of a single macrocrack in hardened cement paste (matrix) and aggregate (particle) is modelled. Influence of carbonation of matrix on crack propagation in composite is assessed and discussed in this paper: degradation of hardened cement paste is important aspect of fracture behaviour of concrete.
