Original Abstract

The effect of high temperatures is a factor which can be the cause of Portland cement based concrete degradation. The service life of cement composites can be negatively influenced by exposure to surroundings with temperature of about 300 C. The development of faults is naturally significantly more dynamical with increasing temperature. The subject of this paper is the analysis of processes, which take place in the cement matrix exposed to temperatures up to 1000 C. Attention is paid not only to changes of physico - mechanical characteristics of the cement stone but first of all to changes of mineralogical composition. The possibilities of cement composites resistance against effect of high and extreme temperatures respectively are verified on the base of obtained results .
