Abstract
Efforts to improve the sustainability of concrete are accompanied by fundamental changes in concrete technology. Karlsruhe Institute of Technology used pure Portland cement to ensure adequate performance and workability. The granulometric composition of all granular source material was optimized for each mixture by means of packing models. Concrete durability was evaluated by testing the carbonation induced reinforcement corrosion. The results show that due to its significantly reduced environmental effects and increased strength specific performance and despite slightly reduced durability, the concrete with a cement content of 113 kg/m3 exhibits a significantly higher potential for sustainability than the reference concrete with a cement content of 20 kg/m3.
