Porosity and Strength of Pozzolan Modified Cement Systems

Porosity is one of the important properties that determine the durability of concrete and mortar. Porosity represents the amount of voids inside the concrete, which is dimensionless quantity, usually expressed as a percentage value. This aim of this study is to determine the effect of pozzolans such...
