Comparative study on porosity and permeability of conventional concrete and concrete with variable proportions of natural zeolite additions
With the use of special additives, the concrete benefits over its product life increase, both in terms of mechanical properties and durability. Zeolites are used in the field of building work for, thank to their properties, they lend to the concrete enhanced features. This paper explores the physica...

With the use of special additives, the concrete benefits over its product life increase, both in terms of mechanical properties and durability. Zeolites are used in the field of building work for, thank to their properties, they lend to the concrete enhanced features.

To this aim, on the one hand a concrete of control and another with Zeolite additions between 5% and 10% have been measured out with respect to the weight of cement, while on the other Compressive strength and permeability testing have been carried out through the Mercury intrusion porosimetry test.
