Estratégias de mitigação da retração em betões autocompactáveis

Miguel José Oliveira; António Bettencourt Ribeiro; Fernando G. Branco

RESUMO O betão auto-compactável (BAC) apresenta propriedades especiais, que justificam a sua preferência em muitas aplicações. No entanto, são conhecidos vários casos de comportamento inadequado, devido principalmente ao comportamento deficiente deste material durante o processo de hidratação e secagem. A retração tem uma importância significativa na conceção, dimensionamento, processo construtivo e comportamento em serviço das estruturas de betão. As exigências normativas não consideram de forma adequada a influência dos fatores existentes. Além disso, a possibilidade de utilização de novos materiais limita fortemente a aplicação do conhecimento existente. De modo a contribuir para a resolução de uma das principais desvantagens deste material – a sua elevada retração, foi realizada uma campanha de ensaios, tendo em vista a avaliação dessa propriedade. Foi dada especial importância à utilização de adjuvantes redutores de retração e adições expansivas. Com base nos resultados obtidos foi possível avaliar a eficiência da utilização desses materiais. Obtiveram-se melhoramentos que permitiram formular uma hierarquização das estratégias de mitigação utilizadas.

Chemical Shrinkage of Pastes Made with Shrinkage Reducing Admixtures

António Bettencourt Ribeiro; Vasco Medina; Augusto Gomes; Arlindo Gonçalves

Shrinkage Reducing Admixtures (SRA) are being used more often in concrete structures in order to better control shrinkage cracks. High-performance concrete, nowadays with large application, has more proneness to crack at very early age due to the lower W/C. In this type of concrete, autogenous shrinkage is usually more important than drying shrinkage. Autogenous shrinkage is due to the volume decrease inherent to binder hydration reactions. The rate of these reactions is influenced not only by the type of binder but also by the presence of chemical admixtures. It is recognized that SRA delay the hydration, being a secondary effect of this type of admixtures. In this work changes on the degree of hydration of cement pastes with SRA and different binders are presented, using the chemical shrinkage test.
