Abstract

This paper study the process of multilevel optimization of particulate structure of concrete. The improvement of performance characteristics of concrete can be achieved with a minimum binder content. Theoretical and experimental principles for the design of an optimal structure of concrete with an increased concentration of solid phase and operational characteristics, with a complex organo-mineral additive are developed on the basis of a rational proportion of chemical and finely dispersed mineral components. The high density of the structure is achieved by obtaining the dense packages by applying strong particles and grains with high elastic modulus and optimal parameters (dispersion and content) for each structural level. It is shown that it is expedient to use several structural levels of the particles of the clinker phase, and pozzolanization of the matrix must be carried out in accordance with the optimal formulation. Finely-dispersed slag, microsilica and highly dispersed fraction of cement were considered as mineral components, and superplasticizer of polycarboxylate type was used as a chemical additive.
