Pozzolanicity Evaluation of Mineral Additions by Electrical Conductivity Measurements

Article Preview

Abstract:

The search for alternative materials that can replace Portland cement promotes discussion about the use of pozzolanic materials in cementitious matrices. Several techniques and procedures can determine the pozzolanic properties of a particular material based on electrical conductivity. Being an innovative and a subject of demand and minimum resource method, this article seeks validation by the comparison with chemical titration tests. To this end, were tested several possible pozzolanic materials (silica fume, metakaolin and eucalyptus ash) through the mentioned techniques
