In the past decade, nanoindentation has become commonly used experimental technique for obtaining quantitative data on elastic and inelastic material properties in small volumes, typically in submicron length scale. The methodology was developed mainly for homogeneous materials or, at least, the homogeneity is assumed far enough from the tested volume in evaluation procedures1. Measurement on a heterogeneous system, in which the material phases are intermixed in small volume, is still a challenging task due to several circumstances.
First, the preparation of a flat surface on the heterogeneous sample with high differences in stiffness needs Special care. Second, the mechanical interaction between the material phases during surface loading is often unavoidable and therefore the extraction of intrinsic properties of individual phases from the heterogeneous system may not be possible. If differences between the stiffnesses of the interacting phases are low, finding of intrinsic properties can be successful using conventional Evaluation. In other cases, the error in estimating intrinsic properties can reach tens of percent.
Concrete is by far the most common building material in the world. Due to its good durability it is widely used in building envelopes. One major part of the embodied energy in concrete comes from the production of Portland cement that consumes around 3,500 MJ energy per each ton of cement. Globally 2.6 billion tons of Portland cement is produced and the consumption is increasing. Since concrete will be used as main building material also in future construction, it is reasonable to develop concrete building components with lower embodied energy.Using the example of an ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) façade element, it is demonstrated how the embodied energy can be reduced by application of hydrothermal curing.
