Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the usefulness of a high-pressure steam test developed in the early 1900s for detecting cement unsoundness. The author provides a comprehensive review of extensive experiments conducted to establish a relationship between the behavior of Portland cements in high-pressure steam and their physical properties under normal conditions. They also explore the effect of age on the soundness of cement and the impact of various steam pressures on cement strength. The author concludes that the high-pressure steam test can be valuable in predicting the behavior of cement in certain specific applications but is not a reliable indicator of cement quality in general.
