Experimental study of cement grout: rheological behavior and sedimentation
Résumé
Three basic elements (cement, water and admixture) usually make up injectable cement grouts used for prestressed cable coating, repair and consolidation of masonry, soil grouting, etc... The present study was divided into two parts. First, in order to characterize rheologically fresh cement paste with W/C ratios (water/cement ratio) varying between 0.35 and 1, an experimental study was carried out and has revealed that the cement past behaves like a shear-thinning material whatever W/C. second, to study the time evolution of their density, a gammadensitometer bench was used. Relying on the water content and the density measured, we demonstrate that the computation of the degree of hydration of cement is possible. The cement/geotechnics interdisciplinary approach proposed here has made it possible to obtain a large range of original results useful to improve our understanding of the sedimentation processes for cement pastes with different W/C ratios.
