Original Abstract

The paper deals with the experimental investigation aimed at the continual monitoring of the process of setting and early hardening in cement pastes and mortars using the measurement equipment Vikasonic. The measurement principle consists in measuring the time of ultrasonic pulses transit through a test specimen placed between two ultrasonic transducers. This innovative method of measurement could in the future suitably complement or, in some cases, completely substitute the measurement of setting in cement composites using the Vicat apparatus. The pilot measurement results performed on the cement pastes and mortars are presented in the paper.
