Křížová, Klára ; Kolář,, Karel (referee) ; Adámek, Jiří (referee) ; Ďurica,, Tibor (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
The modulus of elasticity is one of the basic characteristics of concrete defining elastic deformation of concrete and it plays a significant role in the static design of structures. Due to current trends in concrete technology, offering a wide variability in the proposals of the composition of concrete, there are changes not only in strength characteristics but also in the modulus of elasticity of concrete. The aim of this doctoral thesis is to study the dependence of different compositions on modulus of elasticity of concrete. Design of concrete composition is prepared with respect to the use of different types of cement, mineral admixtures, types and fractions of aggregates. The work is mainly focused on the determination of static modulus of elasticity in compression with the addition of dynamic modules. In the first phase determined modulus of elasticity are compared with tabulated values according to Eurocode 2, which are derived for the specific strength class of concrete. Part of this work is the compilation of the main technological aspects of concrete which can favorably affect 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.

Development of structural concrete with power plant ash
Ťažký, Martin ; Sokol, Pavel (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
Worldwide production of concrete is increasing, what has a negative environmental load of cement production. That is due to effort in building construction, also concrete production, greater use of the secondary raw materials. Fly ash is the most commonly used secondary raw material. His used has a very good impact on the economy and ecology of production and positively affects on the properties of concrete in both the fresh and hardened state. The aim of this bachelor's thesis was to improve its use in concrete, using a minimum void fraction of dry mix cement-fly ash.

Possibilities of reducing shrinkage of concrete and development of concrete recipes with limited shrinkage.
Stoklásek, Martin ; Louda,, Pavel (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of volume changes of concrete and their causes. The theoretical part describes the various types of volume changes in concrete and the causes of their occurrence. Influence of concrete mix design and concreting conditions on volume changes. Methods for reducing volume changes are also addressed. The experimental part is focused on the development of recipes with limited volume changes. In which the development of shrinkage is monitored from an early age up to 60 days and at the same time the development of compressive strengths at 2, 7, 28 and 60 days is also monitored.

Improving of dispersion of silica fume in high performance concrete
Janča, Martin ; Koutný, Ondřej (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The goal of this work was to create a method for improving the dispersion of silica fumes for use in high performance concrete. Traditional methods used to design and manufacture high performance concrete emphasize the removal of coarse aggregates. Use of specially sorted fine aggregates at relatively low doses, the use of super-plasticizers and siliceous excrement. The low water content was achieved by using superplasticizer on a polycarboxylate basis. The standard ultrasound technology found in each laboratory was selected for the dispersion of silica fume. For experiments were we used dry silica fume powder and aqueous stabilized suspension. For comparison, were prepared different mixtures which showed the effects of the treatment prior to the use of silica fume.

Reactive powder concretes (RPC) with polymer latexes
Petrů, Ludmila ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Šoukal, František (advisor)
This thesis deals with the effect of polymeric latexes on the properties of concrete based on reactive powders. Three types of commercial latexes were used for the preparation of the samples, namely Revacryl, Duvilax and Plextol. Revacryl AE 2091 is an aqueous dispersion of styrene-acrylate copolymer with a high content of solids. Duvilax BD-20 is a homopolymer polyvinyl acetate dispersion that does not contain fillers with plasticizers. Plextol X 4002 is an aqueous, self-setting acrylic emulsion with a high content of solids. These latexes were added to the samples at concentrations of 0,20; 0,40; 0,60; 1,20 and 2,50 %. To determine the effect of latex on processability, the flow rate of the fresh mixture was measured. The main objective was to determine the ballistic resistance of modified concretes based on reactive powders. The DOP test was used for the determination. Furthermore, the change in mechanical properties was determined by adding a polymer to concrete based on reactive powders. The improvement in properties is expected to be due to the formation of a polymer film and a polymer-cement co-matrix. To demonstrate the film formation, the microstructure of the samples was observed by a raster electron microscope.
