  2. Superplasticizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superplasticizer

    Superplasticizers (SPs), also known as high range water reducers, are additives used for making high-strength concrete or to place self-compacting concrete. Plasticizers are chemical compounds enabling the production of concrete with approximately 15% less water content. Superplasticizers allow reduction in water content by 30% or more.

  3. High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-performance_fiber...

    This occurrence is hindered by the presence of fiber bridging, a property that most HPFRCCs are specifically designed to possess. Fiber bridging is the act of several fibers exerting a force across the width of a crack in an attempt to prevent the crack from developing further. This capability is what gives bendable concrete its ductile properties.

  4. Water reducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_reducer

    Water reducers offer several advantages in their use, listed below: reduces the water content by 5-10%; decreases the concrete porosity; increases the concrete strength by up to 25% (as less water is required for the concrete mixture to remain workable) increases the workability (assuming the amount of free water remains constant)

  5. Cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cement

    Fiber mesh cement or fiber reinforced concrete is cement that is made up of fibrous materials like synthetic fibers, glass fibers, natural fibers, and steel fibers. This type of mesh is distributed evenly throughout the wet concrete. The purpose of fiber mesh is to reduce water loss from the concrete as well as enhance its structural integrity ...

  6. Shotcrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotcrete

    Shotcrete, gunite (/ ˈ ɡ ʌ n aɪ t /), or sprayed concrete is concrete or mortar conveyed through a hose and pneumatically projected at high velocity onto a surface. This construction technique was invented by Carl Akeley and first used in 1907. [1]: 7 The concrete is typically reinforced by conventional steel rods, steel mesh, or fibers.

  7. Fiber-reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_concrete

    By the 1960s, steel, [6] glass , and synthetic (such as polypropylene) fibers were used in concrete. Research into new fiber-reinforced concretes continues today. Fibers are usually used in concrete to control cracking due to plastic shrinkage and to drying shrinkage. They also reduce the permeability of concrete and thus reduce bleeding of water.

  8. Dye penetrant inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dye_penetrant_inspection

    The end goal of this step is a clean surface where any defects present are open to the surface, dry, and free of contamination. Note that if media blasting is used, it may "work over" small discontinuities in the part, and an etching bath is recommended as a post-blasting treatment. Application of the penetrant to a part in a ventilated test ...

  9. Engineered cementitious composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_cementitious...

    [5] [6] [7] In the presence of water (during a rainstorm, for instance) unreacted cement particles recently exposed due to cracking hydrate and form a number of products (calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H), calcite, etc.) that expand and fill in the crack. These products appear as a white ‘scar’ material filling in the crack.
