Textile-reinforced mortar: Durability in salty environment

Reinforcing a fine-grained cement-based matrix with a textile fabric is an emerging approach in civil engineering, termed Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM). We propose to load the ultra-high-performance matrix with nano-additives, i.e., a crystalline admixture (CA) or CA plus alumina nanofibers. The m...

Zusammenfassung:Reinforcing a fine-grained cement-based matrix with a textile fabric is an emerging approach in civil engineering, termed Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM). We propose to load the ultra-high-performance matrix with nano-additives, i.e., a crystalline admixture (CA) or CA plus alumina nanofibers. The mix was designed to yield flow values - in the fresh state - suitable for retrofitting, and to provide high compressive strength. Examination of the durability of the TRM elements exposed to salty environments unexpectedly showed enhanced tensile strength (
