Development of Composite Mortar and Cement Mixtures
Hlavinková, Eva ; Gemrich, Jan (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the design of composition and the study of properties of the ternary binding system based on purposeful ettringite formation, which was subsequently used for the preparation of self-leveling floor materials, specifically self-levelling underlay and thin-layer floor screed. In the designed compositions of the mixtures is then focused attention on optimizing the dosage of two kinds of plasticizer agents, followed by assessing their impact on the technological properties of these materials.

Development of Self-leveling Screed Based on the Ternary Binder System
Běťák, Rostislav ; Vojtek, Miroslav (referee) ; Gazdič, Dominik (advisor)
The thesis deals with the development of self-leveling cement screed with compensated shrinkage. It is a ternary binder system with the majority of portland cement, that in the beginning of setting and hardening form an expandable folder ettringite. At first there was a background research of volume changes of hydrating cement composites and methods for measuring these changes. Various sort of expansion additives were also introduced, the main emphasis was on concepts of calculated formation of ettringite, which are typical for self-leveling underlayment. Background research included the issues of formation of ettringite, influences on it’s nucleation and it’s stability. The practical development of the screed began by measuring volume changes of different pastes on a ternary composition. Selected formulations suitable for use are verified together with additives to semi-application tests. After the final configuration of the screed mixture, there was a test in real application of an representative area. Individual formulations were tested in terms of long-term stability of ettringite in dry and moist environments.

Study of maturing process of volume stabilised floor flow screeds
Konvičný, Václav ; Štenko,, Miroslav (referee) ; Šťastník, Stanislav (advisor)
The diploma thesis is devoted to the comparison of drying processes of various types of poured floor self-levelling screeds under conditions close to construction practice, especially during maturation under different climatic conditions. These properties were observed by several methods. The course of strength increases and final strength of tested materials under different climatic conditions were also found and compared. The conclusion summarizes the knowledge about the course of drying and the course of development of strengthening of individual floor materials.

Study of mutual influences of volume changes and internal stresses of flow floor screeds
Mikeš, Vít ; Štenko,, Miroslav (referee) ; Šťastník, Stanislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the comparison of volumetric and stress variations in different formulations of cast floor self-leveling screeds during maturation. These changes were measured by several methods. Furthermore, the strength parameters of the test materials were compared. The test specimens were cured in metallic and elastic forms. The microstructure of these samples were monitored by scanning electron microscopy. In conclusion, the suitability of the tested methods for the given type of flooring materials was evaluated.
