Calcium Chloride Test ASTM F-1869 The calcium chloride test long considered the standard for testing concrete moisture vapor emissions has been in use since the 1940s This test produces a moisture vapor emissions rate (MVER) which is a reading of how much moisture content is released from 1000 square feet of concrete slab over a 24-hour
Usage of sea sand for concrete development is the possible alternative for river sand and avoids the excessive sand mining which may cause ecological and environmental problems Sea sand is not used in concrete since it contains chloride ions which can corrode steel In order to avoid the corrosion the salt content of the sea sand must be eliminated before being utilized in concrete Present
The estimated initial chloride content determined by calculation of the chloride content of concrete materials and the concrete mixture proportions can be used to ensure that proposed mixtures will conform to the chloride limits stated in the Building Code and specifications This permits the concrete producer to make adjustments to the mixture
used to measure the content deeper in the concrete A hole is drilled and a plastic plug is placed in it The probe of the hu-midity gauge is inserted into the plug and left to stabilize RH readings are then taken Measuring Moisture in Concrete JPCL – PMC/ MARCH 1998 53 Fig 1 - Calcium chloride test

6 Chloride Resistance of Concrete Figure 3 2 Variation of porosity with depth of concrete slabs cured using different methods (Gowripalan et al 5) The porosity or permeability of insitu concrete is highly dependent on the degrees of compaction and curing during placing and the early life of concrete
This has necessitated the need to check the effect admixtures have on some properties of concrete This study investigated the effect of calcium chloride (CaCl2) as an admixture on the compressive strength of concrete produced from Dangote Elephant and Burham brands of cement available in Nigeria
Chloride Content Test on Concrete Structures Chloride content can be determined from broken samples or core samples of concrete Primarily the level of chloride near the steel-concrete interface is of prime importance Chloride present in concrete are

Chloride ingress into marine exposed concrete A
test [29] is the only input parameter which needs to be measured and there is no requirement for the surface chloride content of the concrete which can significantly influence the result when using the erfc solution As chloride transport is modelled by pure diffusion the model will only predict the s
