  Study on Electrical Resistivity of Metakaolin Concrete

  By P.M. Kulkarni, V. B. Bhruglastav, S.A. Bhalchandra

  Abstract: The present work studies the electrical resistivity of metakaolin concrete containing metakaolin at water–binder ratios 0.58, 0.55, 0.50 and 0.45. Cement was replaced with 0%–15% MK. The optimum replacement level was found 10%. Testing included measurement of electrical resistivity (ER), compressive strength and flexural strength (DT); rebound hammer; and ultrasonic pulse velocity test. ER increases with MK content, age and reduction in W/b ratio. The interrelation between ER and compressive …
