Original Abstract

The paper deals with a comprehensive analysis of the influence of applied crystallization additives on the service life of self-compacting concrete (SCC), specifically when exposed to the effects of chemically aggressive environments. Attention is focused not only on the influence of a crystallization additive on the characteristics of the capillary porous structure of SCC, but mainly on its effects in terms of the long-term service life of self-compacting concrete. The effects of individual types of aggressive environments are evaluated on the basis of a set of physico-mechanical and physico-chemical analyses.
