Solution
To obtain durable structures • For New Construction
– Good Analysis and Design (new PWCP design acts)– Good Materials (new TCA material spec.)– Good Construction (?)– Good Protection and Maintenance
• For Already Existing Structures*– Monitoring, Protection, Maintenance, Repair,
Strengthening
* Not Today’s topic
Analysis and Design
Design considering long term properties(durability, creep, fatigues, ductility),
easiness of construction and maintenance
A new building acts enforcing both short term and long term properties of
structures by Department of Public Works & Urban Planning
(Effective in 2005)

Water Retainability of Powders
Powder will retain more water in and at the surface of the particles when it has larger surface area, porosity and irregularity (shape). For ash-type powders, higher LOI also results in higher water retainability. Higher temperature will increase water retainability of cementitious powders like cement, fly ash, rice husk ash, etc. but affects very little on non-reactive powder like limestone powder.

ash is considered as filler) results in more possibility to fill (but not beyond the capacity of voids among cement).

Lubrication Effect
Air bubbles and spherical or semi-spherical properties of fly ash particles can introduce lubrication to other solid particles in the concrete mixture. This effect reduces friction among the solid particles and then reduces Wo.

• The normal consistency and the initial setting time were determined in accordance with ASTM C 187-98 and C 191-99.
• The dosage of WRA was selected at 0.5% by weight of cement, which is the same dosage as the test for water-reducing efficiency

Conclusion
To obtain durable structures • For New Construction
– Good Analysis and Design (new PWCP design acts)
– Good Materials (new TCA material spec.)– Good Construction (?)– Good Protection and Maintenance
• For Already Existing Structures*– Monitoring, Protection, Maintenance,
Repair, Strengthening
The End
Thank you for your attention
