Abstract:

A methodology has been developed for computing the elastic properties of heterogeneous C-S-H calcium oxide- silicate oxide- hydroxide based multi-phase cementitious materials. The primary focus is to predict homogenized properties at macro-levels using micro mechanics based models. Focus is on the determination of elastic properties for hydrated cement paste from un-hydrated constituents when small strain quasi-static loading conditions are applied to micro-scale.
