A Study on the Permeability and Chloride lon Penetration of Concrete

물-시멘트비에 따른 콘크리트의 투과성 및 염화물 이온의 침투성에 관한 연구

The permeability of concrete influences the durability of concrete remarkably. This paper describes a programme of permeability tests carried out to determine the differences between permeability coefficients derived using water, oxygen and chloride ions. Tests have been carried out on three concretes having water/cement ratios of 0.45, 0.55, 0.65 to measure their water, chloride-ion and gas permeability coefficients. The test results indicate that the permeability of concrete increase with the increase water cement ratios. The water and gas permeability coefficients is presented from $1.43$\times$10^{-10} to 19.01$\times$10^{-10}m/s$ and from $0.88$\times$10^{-10}$ to $1.59$\times$10^{-10}$m$^2$for concrete of different water cement ratios. The current intensity passing through the concrete is presented from 4504 to 4920 C.
