Abstract

How volume change of the cement hydrates affects mechanical characteristics of mortar after calcium leaching are discussed and prediction equations for elastic modulus, tensile strength, fracture energy and shear strength are proposed. Furthermore an analysis of mass transfer with chemical reaction based on a finite volume method is developed and is coupled with a mechanical analysis based on the RBSM. The validity of the coupled analytical method is discussed.
