ANALYSIS OF CONSTRUCTION SALT DECOMPOSITION WITHIN WALLS OF CERAMIC BRICK IN THE MIDTOWN TENEMENT HOUSES
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 19
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce issues related to the corrosive effects of construction salts. Sequentially, one will discuss issues related to the distribution of salt in the wall, salinity sources and types of masonry material damage. There will also be presented the results of research conducted by the authors, which allowed determining the distribution of salinity in the walls depending on the depth and height of sampling. The paper will present test results of samples taken from several heights and depths within the same piece of wall and summaries from all facilities. Research conducted by the authors were based on chemical analyzes performed using the prepared chemical tests. Assays are made using titration and colorimetric methods.
