Change in the durability of concrete made of recycled concrete by alternative addition of ceramic admixtures
Stavař, Tomáš ; Hoffmann, Oldřich (referee) ; Stehlík, Michal (advisor)
The master thesis dealing with problematic about durability of concrete, with use of recycled concrete and addition of silica additions. Predominant for resistance of concrete constructions is surface layer, through which aggressive gasses and liquids penetrate from surrounding environment. The most important indicator of concrete durability is ability of surface layer transmissions of aggressive substants. In experimental part will be defined the actual state of surface layer by normal testing methods. The transmissions of surface layer will be tested on concrete cubes. Tests for transmissions of air (method TORRENT), of water (method ISAT), of acid gases (dept of carbonation by quick test in 98% CO2) will be carried out and also strength tests. Assessment of positive or negative influence of additions and amount of cement on durability and mechanical properties of concrete will be discussed in conclusion.

Floor systems based on secondary raw materials from power industry
Kalina, Martin ; Švec, Jiří (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis deals with the possibility of using secondary raw materials from the energy industry especially the solid residues of high temperature combustion of coal. These materials should be now seen as a material with wide usage especially in the construction industry. One possibility of their usage is a replacement of binding parts in floor systems. The aim is to find the optimal composition of the mixture, which fits all the technical requirements and at the same time reduces the cost of its production. An advanced methods of powder X-ray diffraction analysis, particle size laser diffraction analysis and X-ray fluorescence analysis were used to determine the raw materials. Based on these analysis the experiments were designed focusing on the mechanical properties, the observation of the evolution of hydration’s heat in prepared mixtures and their time of setting and hardening.

The effect of particles size on the properties of mortars.
Sehnal, Tomáš ; Krátký, Josef (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The consumption of concrete as a building material is still increasing over the world. Concrete production is closely associated with CO2 and other greenhouse gases emissions. The reduction of these emissions can be achieved by a higher utilization of secondary raw materials in cement mixtures. This bachelor work is focused on the using of secondary raw material, finely ground granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash from fluidized bed combustion and high temperature combustion. The properties of milling pure cement and cement mortars with addition of secondary raw material will be measured. Compressive strength, flexural strength, and calorimetric measurement will be performed for these prepared mortars.

Comprehensive flooring system for extreme exposure conditions
Šlancar, Jakub ; Bydžovský, Jiří (referee) ; Drochytka, Rostislav (advisor)
This thesis purposes a solution in form of a high resistance coating reaching a minimum compressive strength of 80 MPa in combination with a adhesive bonding compound and with other additive modifying resulting properties. Furthermore, this thesis is concerned with current state of the floor market and focuses especially on those floors used in extreme conditions, such as heavy manufacturing. Furthermore, The basic testing of this method is also included in this thesis.

Properties of alkai-activated aluminosilicates subjected to high temperatures
Halasová, Kristýna ; Bayer, Patrik (referee) ; Rovnaník, Pavel (advisor)
Currently the concept of geopolymer or alkali activated aluminosilicate is very mentioned topic. Many studies concerning utilization of these materials have already been made, but if we want to use these materials in building industry in the future, further research will be needed. This thesis deals with the influence of high temperatures on alkali-activated slag, fly ash and metakaolin-based composites. The work compares mechanical and technological properties, microstructural changes and effect off iller on the geopolymer composites heated at 200–1200 °C. In conclusion, the individual properties are compared and application possibilities of these materials are evaluated.

Study of the influence of additions on the durability of aerated concrete
Halešová, Adéla ; Voves, Jiří (referee) ; Hubáček, Adam (advisor)
The aim of this work is to summarise and consider the possibilities of using admixtures and their influence on the durability of aerated concrete.This bachelor's thesis is based on research findings concerning aerated concrete. Furthermore, it deals with the study of inert and active additions. The experimental part is focused on testing trial samples with the addition of admixtures. It examines what is the rate of the possible chosen physically-mechanical features such as the rate of air density, the durability of surface against the effect of water and chemical defrosting substances and achieving the required strength.

Possibilities of using different types of admixtures in shotcrete technology
Berčík, Martin ; Brožovský, Jiří (referee) ; Hubáček, Adam (advisor)
The Bachelor’s thesis is conceived in the form of research findings on current knowledge of inert and active ingredients and their effects on the shotcrete. It focuses mainly on the composition of individual ingredients, their function executing in the concrete mix and explains how they affect the selected physical and mechanical properties. The work enlightes the importance of using co-products from the industry production as an additive to concrete in terms of both ecological and partly economical.
