Studying the properties of high strength concrete using micro and nano admixtures
Gabko, Miroslav ; Bodnárová, Lenka (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
The objective of this bachelor thesis is to examine the properties of high strength concretes with the main focus on application of mikro or nano admixtures. In theoretical part their production, the properties and the influence on fresh and hardened properties of cement composites are described. In addition, it explores the influence of plasticizer type, some properties of aggregate and cement types. The practical part focuses on testing cement mortars in which fine cements were added. The compressive and flexural strengths were examined after 7 and 28 days of curing, moreover, rheological properties and heat hydration of cements were also observed. Furthermore, the influence of high speed mixing on cement mortars properties was studied.

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.

Carbon nanotubes in building materials
Fialová, Barbora ; Bayer, Patrik (referee) ; Rovnaník, Pavel (advisor)
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has become of great interest for scientists in many disciplines. This study examines the effect of CNTs as nanosized reinforcement for metakaolin–based geopolymer. It was found out that the addition of CNTs considerably affects the compressive and flexural strength geopolymer samples. The influence of CNTs on microstructure was examined using mercury intusion porosimetry and scanning electron microscopy.

Preparation of light composites on the basis of alkali activated fly ashes from high temperature combustion of coal
Weiglová, Jana ; Ptáček, Petr (referee) ; Havlica, Jaromír (advisor)
This thesis studies possibilities of preparation light composite materials based on solid residues from high-temperature burning. The main focus is put on potential alkaline activation by water glass and 50% sodium hydroxide solution. Further on, the thesis analyzes suitable additions which when added into alkaline environment with alkali release gas and thus enable to create light porous composites. The aim of this work is to suggest one or several recipes for preparation of light composites made from solid residues from high-temperature burning through alkaline activation. To method of XRD diffraction analysis has been used to identify the products of hydration and alkaline-siliceous reaction (phases) of alkaline activation.
