A study is conducted to determine the effects on the early hydration kinetics and
compressive strength by seeding of Portland cement and alkali-activated blast furnace
slag with a pure form of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H). The effects of C-S-H seeding
during the early nucleation and growth period of each type...
This presentation provides information on the project "Safety Concrete - a Material Designed to Fail" by Jeffrey J. Thomas, Julie Gevrenov, Hamlin Jennings, and Edward O'Neil. The presentation was delivered at the 106th Annual Meeting & Exposition of The American Ceramic Society, Indianapolis, Indiana in 2004.
