Description
Summary:The article focuses on the impact of different type of mixing approach on resulting mechanical properties of cement composites. The monitored parameters of the mixing approach were the speed of mixing and the method of mixing the individual components of the fresh mixture. The mechanical properties of the resulting composites were the main comparative parameter. The determined mechanical properties were dynamic modulus of elasticity, dynamic shear modulus, flexural strength and compressive strength. Dynamics moduli were detected using non-destructive resonance method during the whole experiment and compressive and flexural strength were determined by destructive method for 28 and 129 days old samples. Testing samples had dimensions equal to 40×40×160 mm.
