Studying the behavior of concrete at high temperatures
Tillová, Jana ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This master‘s thesis is focused on the study of the behavior of cement concrete at high temperatures with a focus on monitoring the impact of aggregate and cement type. This work describes the processes in aggregates and cement matrix at high temperatures. The theoretical part describes the selestion of a suitable aggregate and cement for the surroundings with potential exposure to high temperatures. In the experimental part is given design of composition of a concrete with two types of aggregates and four cements. It has been suggested 8 recipes. Changes were observed densities, compressive strength and tensile strength in bending, calculate the velocity of propagation of waves with ultrasonic pulsed method. Also evaluated the appearance of the surface samples after thermal load – cracks on the surface and measure the maximum crack width.
Study of the properties of cement composites with polypropylene fiber modified low-temperature plasma
Žižková, Lucie ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
Plasma treatment of polypropylene fibers presents a new progressive method, how to increase the utility properties of these fibers. The thesis is focused on verifying the effect of surface treatment of polypropylene fibers in concrete with low-temperature plasma discharge in the normal atmosphere. The paper describes the procedure for treatment of polypropylene fibers with low-temperature plasma and evaluate the impact of this adjustment on the volume changes of cement composites. It should also be emphasized that the thesis is focused on the initial volume changes, ie volume changes in the early stages of solidification and only for your own mixture, which is not considered an external load. Subsequently, the experimental verification of the effect of the addition made commercially available fibers and fibers treated plasma volume changes to a selected physico-mechanical properties of the test compounds.
The behavior of cementitious composites with fiber reinforcement at high temperatures
Fichtová, Zlata ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This master’s thesis studies the influence of dispersed reinforcement on the behaviour of cement composites at thermal loading. In the theoretical part of the research was performed knowledge of the behaviour of concrete at high temperatures. The paper describes the on-going happening in the individual components of concrete and benefits of using dispersed reinforcement. In the practical part were designed concrete mixtures with different types and quantities of fibers. The object of the research was to determine how different types and amounts of fibers affect the physical - mechanical properties of concrete and their suitability for use in high temperatures.
Study of the effect of the application of cellulose fibers in cementitious composites
Dvořák, Richard ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on composition and processing of cellulose fibers and their usage in cementitious composites. It describes key attributes of cellulose fibers, which has to be acquired for effective use in cement composites. There are stated effects of cellulose fibers on concrete properties, such as workability, physical and mechanic attributes and freeze-thaw resistance. In experimental part is designed a mixture with portion of cellulose fibers. There has been performed various tests to define the effect of cellulose fibers. There was designed experiment to determine its alkali resistance for fibers itself, and possible changes in microstructure of fibers were analyzed by optic and electron scanning microscope.

Study of rheological properties of concrete with the addition of low-temperature plasma treated polymer fibers
Gromeš, Vít ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
Polypropylene fibers are used in concrete mixtures to avoid early cracks during shrinkage. Low thickness of each fiber and low density are reasons, why these fibers are effective in small dosage. Their disadvantages are smooth surface and hydrophobic character of polypropylene, thus it is necessary to improve their surface for better spread during mixing and to reach needed adhesion between fibers and cement paste. In present time are using chemical solutions applied on surface of the fibers to provide better water absorption, but the trend is reducing of using chemicals in industry and this situation demands new technology. There is possible solution, polypropylene fibers treated by low-temperature plasma. This method was developer by cooperation Masaryk University in Brno with company KrampeHarex and Brno Universiry of Technology. The goal of this thesis is to bring comparison, of influence on rheology properties of fresh concrete, between admixed the fibers with applied chemical layer and low-temperature plasma treated polypropylene fibers.

Properties of concrete with the addition of plasma modified polypropylene fibers
Vorel, Pavel ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
Master‘s thesis focuses on concrete combined with polypropylen fibres produced commercially, fibres without surface modifications and fibres modificated by plasma. Most important topic of the thesis is experimental verification of influence of plasma modificated fibres on attributes of fresh concrete and physical-mechanical attributes of solidified concrete. Based on the results of the tests perfomed on examin units compares results and anylyses applicability of different fibre surface modifications.
