Characteristics of non-steady-state chloride migration of self-compacting concrete containing recycled concrete aggregate made of fly ash and silica fume

Gritsada Sua-iam, Natt Makul

Abstract

Chloride migration poses a significant challenge to the long-term durability of concrete structures due to its potential to corrode reinforcement and deteriorate the structure. This study focuses on chloride migration in self-compacting concrete (SCC) made with pozzolans, namely silica fume (SF) and fly ash (FA), along with recycled concrete aggregate (RCA). Particularly, the effects of external electrical potential (power-on) duration and RCA content on the features of SCC were examined, alongside the influence of pozzolanic materials, focusing on the chloride migration coefficient and mechanical properties. Six groups of SCC mixtures were created with varying proportions of SF and FA, and different levels of RCA replaced the natural coarse aggregate. The findings reveal a multifaceted impact on SCC behaviour. The chloride migration coefficient exhibits a distinct pattern as the power-on duration increases from 12 to 36 h. Initially, the coefficient increases and then decreases, demonstrating a healing and sealing mechanism within the concrete matrix, which enhances resistance to chloride penetration. The chloride migration coefficient significantly decreased with adding SF and FA. With 15% SF and 30% FA, the coefficient decreased to 59.9% and 49.5%, respectively. Moreover, incorporating RCA in SCC mixtures significantly influences coefficient levels. RCA inclusion at 20% remarkably decreased the coefficient after 12 h by 16.17%. Subsequently, the levels decreased by 39.49% and 46.87% after 24 and 36 h, respectively, compared to the control mixture. This behaviour highlights the importance of RCA in enhancing the resistance of SCC to chloride ingress, a crucial factor for long-term durability. Additionally, mechanical properties such as splitting tensile strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity and surface hardness consistently improved with longer power-on durations and higher RCA and SF content. SCC with RCA and pozzolanic materials exhibits enhanced chloride resistance and superior mechanical performance, making it ideal for sustainable concrete production.
