Influence of Air Entrainment and Curing on Development of Elastic Modulus of Concrete
Bartulíková, Radka ; Kucharczyková, Barbara (referee) ; Kocáb, Dalibor (advisor)
Master's thesis deals with influence of various factors on the concrete compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. This work concentrates mainly on the influence of early curing and air entrainment of concrete. One part of this work is the evaluation of laboratory measurement, which was carried out on cubes of standard and norm prisms. The development of elastic moduli was monitored in time to 730 days of age with respect to air entrainment and curing conditions. The second part of the experiment deals with a comparison of theoretical creep curves depending on the value of the modulus of elasticity based on different standards. Again, the air entrainment effect and influence of initial conditions are reflected.

Comparison of elastic moduli of building materials
Ballon, Marek ; Hubáček, Adam (referee) ; Brožovský, Jiří (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the detection of static and dynamic elastic moduli of building materials, their comparison and overview of the relationships between them. Describes methods for the determination of static modulus of elasticity in the press loading and dynamic modulus of elasticity obtained by non-destructive methods, including ultrasonic pulse method and resonance method.

The Use of the Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Method for the In-situ Estimation of the Quality of Concrete
Sopúch, Martin ; Cikrle, Petr (referee) ; Kocáb, Dalibor (advisor)
The primary focus of this bachelor thesis is examination of concrete properties, principally with non-destructive methods. The ultrasonic apparatus Pundit PL-200 made by Proceq Company was used for the most of non-destructive examinations of the concrete. This paper is mainly focusing on determination of a modulus of elasticity. Measuring of the properties took place in the laboratory with use of probationary entities of 100 x 100 x 400 mm and in site on concrete block situated at BUT FCE campus. The probationary entities including twists from measured block were after non-destructive examining tested in the wring to secure more accurate results. The target of the research paper, firstly, was to attest options for determination of dynamic value. Secondly, with use of decreasing coefficient determine static values of elasticity modulus on the concrete that was built-in in a construction and, consequently, test practical usage possibilities of the modern apparatus Pundit PL-200.

Study of the influence of feedstock composition and the values of the modulus of elasticity of concrete
Šafrata, Pavel ; Křížová, Klára (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
Modulus of elasticity is significantly reflected feature of concrete, besides the compressive strength in static design nowadays. Low modulus of elasticity can cause unacceptable deflections for subtle skeletal structures. It is at least irresposible to count with empirical formulas since there is a wide range of materials and additives in production of concrete. The aim of this thesis is to study the influence of large fraction aggregate on static and dynamic modulus of elasticity of concrete and recommendation for appropriate measures to produce concrete with high modulus of elasticity. The experimental part is further following up the influence of air content in concrete on the modulus of elasticity.

The issue of determination of the static modulus of elasticity of concrete in structures
Halamová, Romana ; Misák, Petr (referee) ; Kocáb, Dalibor (advisor)
The thesis deals with the measurement of the elastic modulus of concrete in existing structures and possibilities of applicability of equations for the calculation of characteristic values of concrete compressive strength on the modulus of elasticity. The modulus of elasticity is determined by dynamic and static methods on specimens taken from the concrete blocks, whose composition varies by a water cement ratio and varying amounts of admixtures. In conclusion, the results of the measurements are compared and the characteristic values of the modulus of elasticity is determined.

The verification of the time development of the concrete elastic modulus and the compressive strength
Alexa, Martin ; Cikrle, Petr (referee) ; Kocáb, Dalibor (advisor)
Especially in the early days of curing concrete for structures sensitive on deformation. Same like bridges of prestressed concrete a substantial knowledge of the exact value of the modulus of elasticity that could prevent excessive deformation. In this work we validates the development of concrete modulus of elasticity (in the first 28 days), which is used for the construction of bridges on the highway D1 near Ružomberok. To understand this issue was made a literature review and conducted experiment, which follows the time development of the concrete compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete. Except the determination of modulus of elasticity in the experiment was investigated a dynamic moduli by an ultrasonic pulse method and the resonance method and the experiment was also performed by rebound hammer. The results can serve to verify the development of the modulus of elasticity on the actual structure.

Calibration of indirect methods for maesurement of properties of alkali activated concretes
Vrba, Pavel ; Kocáb, Dalibor (referee) ; Bílek, Vlastimil (advisor)
This work solves creation of calibration relations to determine cube compressive strength, dynamic and static elastic modulus of alkali-activated concrete by non-destructive methods. Alkali-activated concrete is spoken of as a new material used in civil engineering. It shows different properties than normal concrete based on Portland cement. That's why the modification of common calibration relation seems necessary. Fresh concrete was made in the concrete plan ŽPSV a.s., Uherský Ostroh in three mixtures and always in the number of 18 cubes and 3 prisms. The samples were tested by impact hammer Schmidt type L, type N, SilverSchmidt PC-N and by ultrasound in 6 time periods of three specimens. After that, the cube compressive strength was determined. Status of static elastic modulus was determined in a time period of 28 days. The results are calibration relations to determine the progress of compressive strength and modulus of elasticity for each method and their combination.

The Modulus of Elasticity of Air-Entrained and Non-Air-Entrained Concrete
Tichý, Aleš ; Misák, Petr (referee) ; Kocáb, Dalibor (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the verification of the degree of influence of the air-entraining admixture on the modulus of elasticity of concrete. The experiment was carried out for these purposes. The values of static and dynamic modulus of elasticity were determined on drilled cores from concrete blocks of different mixtures. The magnitudes of dynamic modulus of elasticity were determined by using an ultrasonic pulse velocity method and a resonance method. The results are summarized in tabular and graphical form.
