摘要
Extrusion-based 3D-printed concrete (3DPC) structures are reported to hold mechanical anisotropy behaviors and weak transport properties compared with cast concrete. Fundamental insights into the pore structure discrepancy between printed and cast concrete are essential to the performance prediction and improvement strategy for 3DPC. This study analyzes the pore structure alternations in 3D-printed geopolymer concrete (3DPGC) with cast ones as the reference. Several pore characteristics, i.e., pore volume, distribution, specific surface area (SSA), shape and connectivity are investigated via X-ray CT and MIP. The results demonstrate that a larger porosity, coarser pore size distribution and higher pore SSA exist in 3DPGC compared with CGC. The coarser pore size distribution respectively lies in large voids (>0.2 mm) and small pores (<400 nm) for printed concrete. The pulling stress applied by nozzle movements during the extrusion process contributes to the pore elongation of printed concrete. The mechanical anisotropy of printed concrete without fibers originates from two factors: (i) Oriented pore elongation induces the discrepancy in stress concentration and deformation, and (ii) The weak interlayer presence may cause sliding between layers during loading. However, the pore elongation effect decays with the pore size reduction, limiting its impact on mechanical-anisotropic behaviors. Targeted strategies are then proposed for the matrix strengthening and mechanical anisotropy mitigation in printed concrete.
