4. Conclusions
- (1)
- Calcining raw ore NAC can improve the compressive strength of concrete while calcining high-viscosity ore reduces the compressive strength of concrete. At the age of 28 days, the strength of concrete mixed with calcined raw ore is about 7.10% higher than that of ordinary concrete, while the compressive strength of concrete mixed with calcined high-viscosity ore is about 4.32% lower than that of common concrete.
- (2)
- The resistivity difference between the two-electrode method and the four-electrode method of concrete is slight, and both methods meet the superposition principle; three test methods are early discrete small, later gradually larger. The resistivity of concrete mixed with calcined raw ore increases the fastest, and the 56 days of age is about 15.8% and 29.6% higher than that of ordinary concrete and calcined high-viscosity ore.
- (3)
- Calcining raw ore nano-attapulgite clay can improve the chloride corrosion resistance of concrete. At 28 days, the incorporation of calcined raw ore concrete decreased by about 19.9% and 49.4% compared with ordinary concrete and calcined high-viscosity ore, respectively. There is a good negative correlation between concrete resistivity and chloride diffusion coefficient.
- (4)
- The chloride diffusion model of the cylindrical pier is established based on the heat transfer equation and finite element theory. Considering the relationship between chloride ion diffusion coefficient and time, the chloride ion corrosion of concrete is weaker than considering the diffusion coefficient as a constant. The chloride ion content decreased rapidly with the change of protective layer depth, and it changed exponentially with time and diffusion coefficient. Calcining raw ore can reduce the chloride ion content in concrete erosion. After 10 years of decline, the chloride ion content is 11.1% and 23.2% lower than that of ordinary concrete and concrete mixed with calcined high viscosity ore.
