Mechanical Properties Test Research on Mass Concrete Mixed with Different Fly Ash Bulk Volume

Abstract

The concrete would crack when the temperature stress caused by hardening concrete hydration heat and shrinkage action were over the concrete’ tensile strength. The concrete were added with different amount of fly ash in order to increase concrete’ tensile strength and ultimate tensile strain capacity or consider economic perspective. The mechanics performance tests were carried on mass concrete with different fly ash bulk volume. The test results showed that the fresh fly ash concrete’ workability, hydration heat, compressive strength and durability were obvious superior compared with ordinary concrete.
