Abstract:

This paper investigates the effectiveness of applying continuous high-compression pressure on the initial setting of fresh concrete to produce hardened concrete materials with excellent mechanical properties. A novel experimental apparatus was self-designed and used for the pre-setting pressure application. The utilization of the completely decomposed granite (CDG) soil as an alternative aggregate in concrete production was also explored. A total of twenty-eight specimens were fabricated using two types of fine aggregates, six mix ratios, two initial pressure values, and two distinct durations of the initial pressure application. The density and uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of the specimens were examined to evaluate their mechanical qualities, while micro-CT tests with image analysis were used to quantify their porosity. The results indicated that the 10 MPa initial pre-setting pressurization can effectively eliminate the excess air and voids within the fresh concrete, therefore enhancing the mechanical properties of the hardened concrete specimens of various types. Compared with non-pressurized specimens, the porosity values of pressurized specimens were reduced by 73.11% to 86.53%, the density values were increased by 1.43% to 8.31%, and the UCS values were increased by 8.42% to 187.43%. These findings provide a reference for using a continuous high pre-setting compression pressure and using CDG soil as an aggregate in the fabrication of concrete materials with improved mechanical performance.
