A1 - Kühne, Hans-Carsten A1 - Meng, Birgit T1 - Correlation between setting, heat evolution, and deformations of cementitious binder systems depending on type and amount of superplasticizer N2 - Today polycarboxylate ether based superplasticizer (PCE) is commonly used in concrete technology when high flow properties and water reduction are specified. The ionic strength of the polymers’ backbones determines the adsorption behaviour of polymers on clinker and early hydration products. The amount of required polymers for specified flow properties and the performance over the time of casting is thus determined by the molecular structure of the superplasticizer. The time depending consumption of polycarboxylate ether polymers strongly affects the reaction of aluminates and sulphate ions as well as the hydration process in general. Hence, the choice of polymers for particular flow properties greatly affects the very early properties of cementitious materials such as setting, heat evolution and autogenous deformations. In order to better understand how PCEs influence the early properties, mixes from cement, limestone filler, viscosity modifying agent and water were varied with a high and a low charge density superplasticizer in differing amounts. Results are presented from measurements with an automatic Vicat device, an isothermal heat flow calorimeter, and shrinkage cones. Tests were conducted at 5, 20, and 30 °C. It is shown that in presence of PCE the final set correlates well with the inflexion point of the heat flow curve, which emphasises the interrelation between C-S-H formation and setting. No such clear correlation can be found for the initial set, which is attributed to the fact that the initial set is rather a rheological than a structural phenomenon, so that other effects overlap with C-S-H formation. The results demonstrate that for a given polymer concentration low charge density polymers yield earlier setting than high charge polymers. However, this influence is overridden by the influence of the total amount of polymers in a cementitious system. Since PCE is typically added according to rheological specifications, and low charge PCE typically requires higher amounts of polymers than high charge PCE for comparable flow performance, low charge PCE retards setting more than high charge PCE. The paper furthermore points out that there is no significant influence of the polymer type or amount on the early deformations. Since type and amount strongly affect the hydration, it is demonstrated that early setting causes higher strain after the final set. It is hence concluded that higher PCE solid contents reduce the risk of early cracks that occur at time of setting, when a solid structure has already been formed but without resistance against cracks yet.

In the present age, concrete is not yet well established in Africa, which öfters the unique opportunity to build up a cement and concrete market based on the highest available state of technology. As this industry needs high level expertise, a central issue in implementation of skilled technology is cross-linking research institutions and laboratories. It should not be neglected that concrete is a product with comparably low transport ranges, which means that an improved concrete market will mainly support the local economy without exceeding financial drains to the international market, thus fostering the fight against poverty, which is an urgent need in most African countries. The SPIN project highlights recent developments in the field of cement and concrete research with impact on the local and global economy. Challenges, future developments and opportunities for the African construction industry are in the focus. The SPIN project is funded by the European Commission (EC) and supported by the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States under the project body of the ACP Science and Technology Programme. SPIN is acronym for “Spearhead network for Innovative, Clean and Safe Cement and Concrete Technologies”. The project aims to cross-link experts with industry and policy making bodies, aiming to establish sustainable cement and concrete construction in Africa.

C. T1 - Baupraxis und Infrastrukturentwicklung im Hinblick auf die Betonindustrie in Ost- und Südafrika N2 - Der Bausektor stellt in Afrika traditionell eine der stabileren Quellen für den Arbeitsmarkt dar. Durch ständige Wechsel in der Politik wurden jedoch in zahlreichen Ländern Einschnitte bei den öffentlichen Investitionen sowie ein Rückgang der Beschäftigtenzahlen im Privatsektor beobachtet. Darüber hinaus konnte eine Verlagerung von offiziell tätigen und registrierten hin zu nicht registrierten Bauunternehmen festgestellt werden. Zahlreiche Bauunternehmen bieten Dienstleistungen an, die sie nicht ständig ausführen oder für die sie sich das erforderliche Gerät leihen müssen. Einer im Jahre 2000 hinsichtlich der Situation in Tansania veröffentlichten Studie zufolge verfügen nur etwa 15 % der Unternehmen, die Betonbauarbeiten anbieten, über einen eigenen Betonmischer. Die auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent angewandten Baupraktiken im Betonbau weichen erheblich voneinander ab. Während Südafrika über eine fortgeschrittene Technologie und eine hoch entwickelte Infrastruktur im Hinblick auf die Zement- und Betonindustrie verfügt, sind Zement und Beton in den ostafrikanischen Ländern, insbesondere in jenen, die in den 90er Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts von schweren Bürgerkriegen erschüttert wurden, kaum verfügbar und zählen keinesfalls zu den in der täglichen Baupraxis verwendeten Baustoffen. Hier wird auf einheimische Baumethoden, bei denen vorwiegend Holz verwendet wird, zurückgegriffen. Dieses wird durch Abholzung gewonnen, was schließlich zur Rodung ganzer Waldgebiete führt. Die ohne entsprechende Planung, Genehmigung und Erschließung errichteten Siedlungen in Südafrika und Kenia veranschaulichen erschreckend, wie einstmals von grüner Vegetation bedeckte Landstriche in künstliche, wüstenartige Landschaften verwandelt wurden.

C. T1 - Building practice and concrete infrastructure development in eastern and southern Africa N2 - The construction sector has traditionally been a source of employment in African regions. However, due to policy changes, cut backs in public investments as well as a fall in the number of employments in the private sector have been observed in many countries. Furthermore a shift from registered companies to informal contractors could be noticed. Many contractors offer services they do not provide permanently or for which the required equipment has to be borrowed. A study that was published in 2000 about the situation in Tanzania pointed out that only ca. 15% of the enterprises that offer concrete works own a concrete mixer. The building practice with concrete varies widely over the African continent. Whereas the level of technology and the infrastructure for cement and concrete in South Africa is elaborate, in East Africa and particularly those that were heavily suffering from civil war during the nineties of the last century, the availability of cement and concrete is poor and these materials are far from being everyday building practice. Most of the population relies on indigenous forms of construction requiring wood obtained from felling of forest trees and ultimately contributing to de-forestation. Informal settlements in South-Africa and Kenya are literal evidence where originally green natural vegetation has been turned into artificial desert-like landscapes.
