Abstract |
The setting time is a very important factor affecting the quality of tunnel lining and reinforcement of inclined slope etc. Currently, however, the quality criteria of accelerating admixture to improve it is not established well. In this study, evaluation on setting time measuring methods of cement mixed a accelerating admixture (AA) was performed using Gillmore and Vicat needle test methods. For both test methods, the setting time for addition at a time was better than post addition regardless of initial setting and final setting. For Gillmore needle test method, two types of measuring methods were selected and it is noted that setting time with cement type under the same accelerating admixture can be different. Accordingly, manufacturing company shall develop a less sensitive accelerating admixture to cement type. For Vicat needle test method, six types of measuring methods were used and a proper measuring method of the admixture were proposed as follows: (1) the temperature of materials used shall be controlled exactly and (2) to evaluate its properties, an admixture usage of 5% (ratio of cement weight) is recommended.
