2. State of the Art Report on Cement Based Grout Properties and Dynamic Grouting
University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanikAbstract : Dynamic grouting in rock mass has been studied since 1985 while desired penetration in rock masses with fine fractures is still a challenge because of uncertainty and complexity in the grouting process. This has attracted the attention of researchers in different countries and regions, especially in some Nordic countries such as Sweden. READ MORE

4. Simulation of Hardening of the MahanaKhon Tower Mat Foundation
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Cement hydration is the result of a series of simultaneous chemical reactions occurring during the production of concrete. An excessive amount of heat is generated, which consequently may give rise to thermal stresses and cause early age cracks in concrete that may affect its structural integrity, and load bearing capacity.

5. Alternative methods to prevent thermal cracking in concrete
University essay fromAbstract : In the construction industry, concrete is the most common material, because of its good properties such as compressive strength and endurance. Concrete is a composition of several different materials where one of the main components is cement. When the hydration process starts, large amount of heat is generated. READ MORE
