Abstract:

This study aims to study different concrete with different mineral contributions in air, 3.5 % sea water and 5 % sulphuric acid environments with the overall binding amount and the equivalent water/cement ratio parameters. Under the experiment, different chemical effects control concrete (K), flying ashes added concrete (U), curved ashes added concrete (C), and both flying ashes and silice smoke added concrete (US) were produced. The equivalent water/cement ratio of control (K) and flying sand concrete (U) is 0.45 and the binding quantities are 400 and 470 kg/m3 respectively. The equivalent water/cement ratio of (US) concrete (c) and concrete containing both flying ashes and silic smoke is 0.53, with binding amounts of 500 and 440 kg/m3. Equivalent water/cement calculations are determined according to the TS 13515 standard. The durability performance of the produced concrete in different environments is determined by visual examination, weight and pressure resistance changes, and the impact of the total binding and equivalent water/cement ratio parameters on the concrete performance is thoroughly evaluated. According to the findings, flying fiber and silicone smoke concrete showed best performance against chemical effects, although it contains a higher equivalent water/cement ratio than other concrete and less binding quantity than others. The worst chemical performance has been shown as it contains high CaO, so it has been shown to be curved and controlled concrete. The cement equivalence ratio used in the TS 13515 standard provides appropriate results for flying ashes, while the TS 13515 standard has been given important recommendations for use in the equivalent water/cement calculations of curved and silic smoke concrete.
