Abstract

It is very important to improve and secure durability of reinforced concrete (RC) building and housing, in order to extend the service life of it. In this study, these were studied experimentally that the contribution ratio of blended cement to the carbonation resistance of concrete when a part of OPC replaced to FA or BFS much more were used for concrete, and the effect of carbonation suppression required for an effective finishing materials when these were applied for concrete surface. As a result, we were able to obtain the knowledge that the contribution ratio to the carbonation resistance of concrete using blended cement with different mixture replacement ratio, and the effect of carbonation suppression required for 4 types of finishing materials and its specifications, from the viewpoint of securing durability and extending the service life of RC structures. Therefore, these were considered to be able to sufficiently contribute to the review of the evaluation method or technical standards concerning about the durability of RC structures prescribed in "Housing Quality Assurance Act" in Japan.
