This volume gathers the proceedings of the 3rd International RILEM Workshop on Concrete Durability and Service Life Planning (ConcreteLife’20), held in Haifa, Israel in January 2020. The papers cover a range of topics in concrete curing, cracking in concrete structures, corrosion of steel in concrete, thermal and hygral effects, concrete in cold climates and under high temperatures, recycling, alkali-silica reactions, chloride and sulfate attacks, marine structures, transport phenomena, durability design, microstructure of concrete and volume changes, and life cycle assessment. The book also explores future trends in research, development, and practical engineering applications related to durable concrete construction, and focuses on the design and construction of concrete structures exposed to various environmental conditions and mechanical loading. Given its scope, it offers a valuable asset for all researchers and graduate students in the areas of cement chemistry, cement production, and concrete design.

Currently, per American Concrete Institute Committee 306 guidance, when placing concrete in temperatures below 40°F, the concrete must be protected. Cold weather admixture systems (CWAS) technology enables concrete to be finished and cured at 23°F. CWAS concrete incorporates a suite of admixtures that depress the freezing point and allow concrete to be poured at sub-freezing temperatures and cured without external heat sources. This document will showcase the history of CWAS concrete and illustrate its long term durability when placed in cold regions. The goal of the project was to investigate long term durability of two field sites in service. This investigation consisted of a visual inspection as well as collecting nondestructive testing data on site and collecting core samples. This technology was a breakthrough for cold regions to continue construction during cold seasons and remain as durable as control concrete poured using conventional methods.

Concrete durability in climates where freezing and thawing occurs is a continuing problem. It is particularly acute for highway and bridge structures, where de-icing salts are used to combat the effects of frost, snow and ice. These salts can cause damage to concrete and accelerate corrosion of reinforcements. This book presents the latest international research on this area, with contributions from North America and Europe which were presented at an international RILEM workshop.

Whilst most structures made using concrete and cement-based composites have not shown signs of premature degradation, there have been notable exceptions. In addition, there is increasing pressure for new structures to remain in serviceable condition for long periods with only minimal maintenance before being recycled. All these factors have highlighted the issues of what affects the durability of these materials in different circumstances and how material properties can be measured and improved. Durability of concrete and cement composites summarises key research on these important topics. After an introductory chapter, the book reviews the pore structure and chemistry of cement-based materials, providing the foundation for understanding the particular aspects of degradation which are discussed in the following chapters. These include dimensional stability and cracking processes, chemical and microbiological degradation of concrete, corrosion of reinforcing and prestressing steels, deterioration associated with certain aggregates, effects of frost and problems involving fibre-reinforced and polymer-cement composites. With its distinguished international team of contributors, Durability of concrete and cement composites is a standard reference for all those concerned with improving the service life of structures using these materials. Analyses a range of materials such as reinforced steel in concrete, pre-stressed concrete and cement composites Discusses key degradation phenomena such as cracking processes and the impact of cold weather conditions A standard reference for those concerned with improving the service life of structures using concrete and cement based composites

Portland cement pervious concrete (PCPC) is increasingly used in pavement applications due to its benefits in reducing the quantity of runoff water, improving stormwater quality, enhancing the skid resistance of the pavement during storm events by rapid drainage of water, and reducing pavement noise. In the United States, PCPC typically has high porosity and low strength, which has resulted in limited use of pervious concrete, particularly in hard wet freeze environment (i.e., Midwest and North East of the U.S. and other parts of the world). Improving the strength and freeze-thaw durability of pervious concrete is necessary for increasing use of PCPC in these regions. Included in the following thesis is a literature review that includes the current state-of-practice in PCPC design, construction, and related environmental issues. The purpose of this research is to develop PCPC mix proportions that have not only sufficient porosity for stormwater infiltration, but also desirable strength and freeze-thaw durability. In this research, concrete mixes were designed with various sizes and types of aggregates, binder contents, and amounts of admixtures. The engineering properties of the aggregates were evaluated. The porosity, permeability, strength, and freeze-thaw durability of these mixes were measured. Results indicate that PCPC made with single size aggregate generally has high permeability (greater than 2000 in./hr) but not adequate strength (less than 3000 psi). Addition of a small amount of sand (5% to 7%) and fiber can significantly improve strength and freeze-thaw resistance of the concrete with limited reduction in permeability. Similar to conventional concrete, there are close relationships between PCPC air void content, permeability, and compressive strength. Compaction method and energy has considerable effect on concrete uniformity and properties. Based on the results, well-designed pervious concrete can achieve the strength, permeability, and freeze-thaw resistance to allow wide-spread use in northern climates.
