Abstract: A method for making concrete and concrete structures includes: providing a liquid admixture with a carbon nanomaterial in a liquid aqueous or organic solvent/compound mixture, mixing the liquid admixture with cement and water in a dosage selected to form a concrete mix having a carbon nanomaterial structure having individual carbon nanomaterial particles with a unit cell overlap, and hardening the concrete mix to form a concrete matrix with the carbon nanomaterial forming a 3-dimensional carbon nanomaterial network incorporated into the concrete matrix. The 3-dimensional carbon nanomaterial network has a shielding effect against high frequency electromagnetic pulses and other radiofrequency signals.

Abstract: A method for making an admixture for concrete includes the steps of providing a carbon nanomaterial comprised of carbon nanoparticles and wetting and dispersing the carbon nanomaterial in a liquid organic solvent/compound mixture comprised of amine based compounds configured to de-agglomerate and uniformly disperse the carbon nanoparticles. The method also includes the step of selecting the organic/solvent compound mixture to perform the wetting and dispersing step and to also perform at least one additional function in a particular type of concrete. An admixture for making concrete comprises a suspension of uniformly dispersed carbon nanoparticles having a predetermined percentage range by mass of the admixture in an organic solvent/compound mixture comprising an amine based compound having a predetermined percentage range by mass of the organic solvent/compound mixture.

Abstract: A cementitious mixture for high-volume production of masonry products comprises a hydraulic binder accounting for 20 wt % or more of the cementitious mixture, the hydraulic binder comprising 75 to 100 wt % Class C fly ash with a CaO equivalent content of at least 15% by weight. The cementitious mixture also comprises one or more aggregates, and a set control system.
